Jeremiah 24

1 Under the type of good and bad figs, 4 he foresheweth the restoration of them that were in captivity, 8 and the desolation of Zedekiah and the rest.

 24:1 ¶ The LORD 3068 shewed 7200 z8689 me, and, behold, x2009 two 8147 baskets 1736 of figs 8384 [were] set 3259 z8716 before 6440 the temple 1964 of the LORD, 3068 after y310 that x310 Nebuchadrezzar 5019 king 4428 of Babylon 894 had carried away captive 1540 z8687 x853 Jeconiah 3204 the son 1121 of Jehoiakim 3079 king 4428 of Judah, 3063 and the princes 8269 of Judah, 3063 with x854 the carpenters 2796 and smiths, 4525 from Jerusalem, 3389 x4480 and had brought 935 z8686 them to Babylon. 894

 24:2 One 259 basket 1731 [had] very 3966 good 2896 figs, 8384 [even] like the figs 8384 [that are] first ripe: 1073 and the other 259 basket 1731 [had] very 3966 naughty 7451 figs, 8384 which x834 could not x3808 be eaten, 398 z8735 they were so bad. 7455 x4480

 24:3 Then said 559 z8799 the LORD 3068 unto x413 me, What x4100 seest 7200 z8802 thou, x859 Jeremiah? 3414 And I said, 559 z8799 Figs; 8384 the good 2896 figs, 8384 very 3966 good; 2896 and the evil, 7451 very 3966 evil, 7451 that x834 cannot x3808 be eaten, 398 z8735 they are so evil. 7455 x4480

 24:4 ¶ Again the word 1697 of the LORD 3068 came x1961 unto x413 me, saying, 559 z8800

 24:5 Thus x3541 saith 559 z8804 the LORD, 3068 the God 430 of Israel; 3478 Like these x428 good 2896 figs, 8384 so x3651 will I acknowledge 5234 z8686 x853 them that are carried away captive 1546 of Judah, 3063 whom x834 I have sent 7971 z8765 out of x4480 this x2088 place 4725 into the land 776 of the Chaldeans 3778 for [their] good. 2896

 24:6 For I will set 7760 z8804 mine eyes 5869 upon x5921 them for good, 2896 and I will bring them again 7725 z8689 to x5921 this x2063 land: 776 and I will build 1129 z8804 them, and not x3808 pull [them] down; 2040 z8799 and I will plant 5193 z8804 them, and not x3808 pluck [them] up. 5428 z8799

 24:7 And I will give 5414 z8804 them an heart 3820 to know 3045 z8800 me, that x3588 I x589 [am] the LORD: 3068 and they shall be x1961 my people, 5971 and I x595 will be x1961 their God: 430 for x3588 they shall return 7725 z8799 unto x413 me with their whole x3605 heart. 3820

 24:8 ¶ And as the evil 7451 figs, 8384 which x834 cannot x3808 be eaten, 398 z8735 they are so evil; 7455 x4480 surely x3588 thus x3541 saith 559 z8804 the LORD, 3068 So x3651 will I give 5414 z8799 x853 Zedekiah 6667 the king 4428 of Judah, 3063 and his princes, 8269 and the residue 7611 of Jerusalem, 3389 that remain 7604 z8737 in this x2063 land, 776 and them that dwell 3427 z8802 in the land 776 of Egypt: 4714

 24:9 And I will deliver 5414 z8804 them to be removed 2189 z8675 y2113 into all x3605 the kingdoms 4467 of the earth 776 for [their] hurt, 7451 [to be] a reproach 2781 and a proverb, 4912 a taunt 8148 and a curse, 7045 in all x3605 places 4725 whither x834 x8033 I shall drive 5080 z8686 them.

 24:10 And I will send 7971 z8765 x853 the sword, 2719 x853 the famine, 7458 and the pestilence, 1698 among them, till x5704 they be consumed 8552 z8800 from off x4480 x5921 the land 127 that x834 I gave 5414 z8804 unto them and to their fathers. 1
