24 ¶ Seyè a fè m' wè de panyen plen fig frans kòtakòt devan gwo kay Seyè a. Lè sa a, Nèbikadneza, wa peyi Babilòn lan, te gen tan depòte Jekonya, pitit Jojakim, wa peyi Jida a, ansanm ak tout gwo chèf peyi Jida yo, bòs atizan yo ak tout moun ki gen metye yo. Li te mennen yo tout ale lavil Babilòn.

Premye panyen an te plen bèl fig frans tankou premye fig ki mi nan sezon an. Lòt panyen an te plen vye fig frans moun pa ka manje tank yo pa bon.

Lèfini, Seyè a di m' konsa: -Jeremi, kisa ou wè la a? Mwen reponn, mwen di l': -Fig frans. Bon fig yo bon anpil. Vye fig yo pa bon menm. Moun pa ka manje yo tank yo pa bon.

Lè sa a, Seyè a pale avè m' ankò, li di m' konsa:

-Se mwen menm, Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la k'ap pale. Mwen konsidere moun peyi Jida yo depòte yo, moun mwen voye nan peyi Babilòn yo, tankou yon panyen bèl fig frans. Mwen pral aji byen ak yo.

M'ap toujou voye je sou yo, m'ap mennen yo tounen nan peyi sa a. M'ap fè yo grandi, mwen p'ap kraze yo. M'ap plante yo, mwen p'ap derasinen yo ankò.

M'ap ba yo konprann pou yo sa konnen se mwen menm ki Seyè a. Lè sa a, y'a yon pèp pou mwen, mwen menm m'a Bondye yo, paske y'ap tounen vin jwenn mwen ak tout kè yo.

Menm sa yo fè ak vye fig ki pa bon yo, fig moun pa ka manje tèlman yo pa bon yo, se sa mwen pral fè ak Sedesyas, wa peyi Jida a, ansanm ak tout gwo chèf li yo, ak tout rès pèp lavil Jerizalèm yo ki te rete nan peyi a osinon ki te desann peyi Lejip.

Mwen pral mennen yon sèl malè sou yo. Tout lòt nasyon ki sou latè a pral tranble lè y'a wè sa. Moun pral pase yo nan betiz, yo pral rakonte istwa sou yo. Yo pral mete yo nan chante. Y'ap pran non yo pou sèvi jouman, pou bay madichon nan tout peyi kote mwen pral gaye yo.

10 Mwen pral voye lagè, grangou ak move maladi sou yo jouk p'ap gen yonn k'ap rete nan peyi mwen te ba yo a, peyi mwen te bay zansèt yo a.

Two Baskets of Figs

24 After Jehoiachin[a](A) son of Jehoiakim king of Judah and the officials, the skilled workers and the artisans of Judah were carried into exile from Jerusalem to Babylon by Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, the Lord showed me two baskets of figs(B) placed in front of the temple of the Lord. One basket had very good figs, like those that ripen early;(C) the other basket had very bad(D) figs, so bad they could not be eaten.

Then the Lord asked me, “What do you see,(E) Jeremiah?”

“Figs,” I answered. “The good ones are very good, but the bad ones are so bad they cannot be eaten.”

Then the word of the Lord came to me: “This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: ‘Like these good figs, I regard as good the exiles from Judah, whom I sent(F) away from this place to the land of the Babylonians.[b] My eyes will watch over them for their good, and I will bring them back(G) to this land. I will build(H) them up and not tear them down; I will plant(I) them and not uproot them. I will give them a heart to know(J) me, that I am the Lord. They will be my people,(K) and I will be their God, for they will return(L) to me with all their heart.(M)

“‘But like the bad(N) figs, which are so bad they cannot be eaten,’ says the Lord, ‘so will I deal with Zedekiah(O) king of Judah, his officials(P) and the survivors(Q) from Jerusalem, whether they remain in this land or live in Egypt.(R) I will make them abhorrent(S) and an offense to all the kingdoms of the earth, a reproach and a byword,(T) a curse[c](U) and an object of ridicule, wherever I banish(V) them. 10 I will send the sword,(W) famine(X) and plague(Y) against them until they are destroyed from the land I gave to them and their ancestors.(Z)’”
