耶利米书 24

巴比伦王尼布甲尼撒将犹大王约雅敬的儿子耶哥尼雅和犹大的首领，并工匠、铁匠从耶路撒冷掳去，带到巴比伦。这事以后，耶和华指给我看，有两筐无花果放在耶和华的殿前。

bā bǐ lún wáng ní bù jiǎ ní sā jiāng yóu dà wáng yuē yǎ jìng de ér zi yē gē ní yǎ hé yóu dà de shǒu lǐng ， bìng gōng jiàng 、 tiě jiàng cóng yē lù sā lěng lǔ qù ， dài dào bā bǐ lún 。 zhè shì yǐ hòu ， yē hé huá zhǐ gěi wǒ kàn ， yǒu liǎng kuāng wú huā guǒ fàng zài yē hé huá de diàn qián 。

The LORD showed me, and behold, two baskets of figs were set before the LORD’s temple, after Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon had carried away captive Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, and the princes of Judah, with the craftsmen and smiths, from Jerusalem, and had brought them to Babylon.

一筐是极好的无花果，好像是初熟的；一筐是极坏的无花果，坏得不可吃。

yì kuāng shì jí hǎo de wú huā guǒ ， hǎo xiàng shì chū shú de ； yì kuāng shì jí huài de wú huā guǒ ， huài dé bù kě chī 。

One basket had very good figs, like the figs that are first-ripe; and the other basket had very bad figs, which could not be eaten, they were so bad.

于是耶和华问我说：「耶利米你看见什么？」我说：「我看见无花果，好的极好，坏的极坏，坏得不可吃。」

yú shì yē hé huá wèn wǒ shuō ：「 yē lì mǐ nǐ kàn jiàn shén me ？」 wǒ shuō ：「 wǒ kàn jiàn wú huā guǒ ， hǎo de jí hǎo ， huài de jí huài ， huài dé bù kě chī 。」

Then the LORD asked me, “What do you see, Jeremiah?” I said, “Figs. The good figs are very good, and the bad are very bad, so bad that they can’t be eaten.”

耶和华的话临到我说：「

yē hé huá de huà lín dào wǒ shuō ：「

The LORD’s word came to me, saying,

耶和华—以色列的 神如此说：被掳去的犹大人，就是我打发离开这地到迦勒底人之地去的，我必看顾他们如这好无花果，使他们得好处。

yē hé huá — yǐ sè liè de shén rú cǐ shuō ： bèi lǔ qù de yóu dà rén ， jiù shì wǒ dǎ fā lí kāi zhè dì dào jiā lè dǐ rén zhī dì qù de ， wǒ bì kàn gù tā men rú zhè hǎo wú huā guǒ ， shǐ tā men dé hǎo chù 。

“The LORD, the God of Israel says: ‘Like these good figs, so I will regard the captives of Judah, whom I have sent out of this place into the land of the Chaldeans, as good.

我要眷顾他们，使他们得好处，领他们归回这地。我也要建立他们，必不拆毁；栽植他们，并不拔出。

wǒ yào juàn gù tā men ， shǐ tā men dé hǎo chù ， lǐng tā men guī huí zhè dì 。 wǒ yě yào jiàn lì tā men ， bì bù chāi huǐ ； zāi zhí tā men ， bìng bù bá chū 。

For I will set my eyes on them for good, and I will bring them again to this land. I will build them, and not pull them down. I will plant them, and not pluck them up.

我要赐他们认识我的心，知道我是耶和华。他们要作我的子民，我要作他们的 神，因为他们要一心归向我。」

wǒ yào cì tā men rèn shi wǒ de xīn ， zhī dào wǒ shì yē hé huá 。 tā men yào zuò wǒ de zǐ mín ， wǒ yào zuò tā men de shén ， yīn wèi tā men yào yì xīn guī xiàng wǒ 。」

I will give them a heart to know me, that I am the LORD. They will be my people, and I will be their God; for they will return to me with their whole heart.

耶和华如此说：「我必将犹大王西底家和他的首领，以及剩在这地耶路撒冷的余民，并住在埃及地的犹大人都交出来，好像那极坏、坏得不可吃的无花果。

yē hé huá rú cǐ shuō ：「 wǒ bì jiāng yóu dà wáng xī dǐ jiā hé tā de shǒu lǐng ， yǐ jí shèng zài zhè dì yē lù sā lěng de yú mín ， bìng zhù zài āi jí dì de yóu dà rén dōu jiāo chū lái ， hǎo xiàng nà jí huài 、 huài dé bù kě chī de wú huā guǒ 。

“‘As the bad figs, which can’t be eaten, they are so bad,’ surely the LORD says, ‘So I will give up Zedekiah the king of Judah, and his princes, and the remnant of Jerusalem who remain in this land, and those who dwell in the land of Egypt.

我必使他们交出来，在天下万国中抛来抛去，遭遇灾祸；在我赶逐他们到的各处成为凌辱、笑谈、讥刺、咒诅。

wǒ bì shǐ tā men jiāo chū lái ， zài tiān xià wàn guó zhōng pāo lái pāo qù ， zāo yù zāi huò ； zài wǒ gǎn zhú tā men dào de gè chù chéng wéi líng rǔ 、 xiào tán 、 jī cì 、 zhòu zǔ 。

I will even give them up to be tossed back and forth among all the kingdoms of the earth for evil, to be a reproach and a proverb, a taunt and a curse, in all places where I will drive them.

我必使刀剑、饥荒、瘟疫临到他们，直到他们从我所赐给他们和他们列祖之地灭绝。」

wǒ bì shǐ dāo jiàn 、 jī huāng 、 wēn yì lín dào tā men ， zhí dào tā men cóng wǒ suǒ cì gěi tā men hé tā men liè zǔ zhī dì miè jué 。」

I will send the sword, the famine, and the pestilence among them, until they are consumed from off the land that I gave to them and to their fathers.’”
