1LORD JEHOVAH showed me two reed baskets of figs placed before the temple of LORD JEHOVAH after Nebukadnetsar King of Babel captured Yokania, son of Yoiqim, King of Judea, and the Craftsmen and the Guards from Jerusalem, and he took them to Babel 2One reed basket of figs that are very good, as first fruit figs, and another reed basket of figs that are very bad that are not eaten, because of their badness 3And LORD JEHOVAH said to me: "What have you seen, Jeremiah?" and I said, “Figs that are very good and that are very bad, that are not eaten, for their badness”

4And the word of LORD JEHOVAH was upon me, saying 5“Thus says LORD JEHOVAH, God of Israel: like these good figs, so I shall recognize the captivity of Judea which I sent from this place to the land of the Chaldeans for good 6And I shall set my eyes upon them for good and I shall lead them to this region and I shall build them and I shall not destroy and I shall plant them and I shall not uproot 7And I shall give them a heart that they shall know me, that I AM LORD JEHOVAH, and they shall be my people, and I shall be their God, when they will return to me from all their heart

8And like bad figs that are not eaten for their badness, thus says LORD JEHOVAH, so I shall hand over Tsedeqiah King of Judea and his Princes and the rest of the people that are left in this city, and those who dwell in the land of Egypt 9And I shall give them to horror and to shaking and to evil among all the kingdoms of the Earth, for a reproach and for a proverb and for a tale and for a curse in all regions where I shall scatter them 10And I shall send a sword and famine and plagues after them until I finish them from the land that I had given to them and to their fathers”
