Jeremiah 24 - Interlinear Bible

Baskets of Figs and the Returnees

1 After Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon had carried away captive Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, and the officials of Judah with the craftsmen and smiths from Jerusalem and had brought them to Babylon, the LORD showed me: behold, two baskets of figs set before the temple of the LORD !

2 One basket had very good figs, like first-ripe figs, and the other basket had very bad figs which could not be eaten due to rottenness.

3 Then the LORD said to me, " What do you see, Jeremiah ?" And I said, "Figs, the good figs, very good ; and the bad figs, very bad, which cannot be eaten due to rottenness."
