1 Hina Gode da daba aduna figi fagega nabai, Debolo diasu midadi dialebe, amo nama olelei. (Amo esoga, hou da agoane doaga: i ba: i. Hina bagade Nebiuga: denese da Yuda hina bagade Yehoiagini [Yihoiagimi egefe] amola Yuda ouligisu dunu, liligi hahamosu dunu amola bagade dawa: su hawa: hamosu dunu, amo huluane Yelusalemega fadegale, afugili, Ba: bilone sogega mugululi asi).
The Lord showed me in vision two baskets of figs placed in front of the Lord's Temple. This happened after Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, had taken to Babylon Jehoiachin, son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, as well as the leaders of Judah, and the craftsmen and metal-workers from Jerusalem.
2 Daba No 1 da figi fage noga: i amo da hedolo yoi hamosa, amoga nabai ba: i. Daba No 2da figi fage wadela: i, manu hamedei, amoga nabai ba: i.
One basket was full of very good figs, like those that ripen early, but the other basket only had very bad figs, so bad they couldn't be eaten.
3 Amasea, Hina Gode da nama amane sia: i, “Yelemaia! Dia da adi ba: sala: ?” Na da bu adole i, “Na da figi fage ba: sa. Noga: i figi da noga: idafa. Be wadela: i figi da wadela: idafa, manu hamedei.”
“Jeremiah,” the Lord asked, “what can you see?” “I see figs!” I replied. “The good figs look very good, but the bad figs look very bad, so bad they can't be eaten.”
4 Amaiba: le, Hina Gode da nama amane sia: i,
Then a message from the Lord came to me, saying,
5 “Na, Hina Gode, Isala: ili fi ilia Gode, da Yuda fi dunu agoane ba: sa. Dunu da Ba: bilone sogega mugululi oule asi da figi fage noga: iwane ba: sa. Na da ilima asigiwane hamomuyo.
This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: The good figs represent to me the exiles from Judah, those I have sent away from here to the country of Babylonia.
6 Na da ili noga: le sosodo aligimu. Na da ili Yuda sogega bu oule misunu. Na da ilia hou hame wadela: mu, be ilia bu hahawane ba: ma: ne, ili gaguia gadomu. Na da ili bugili, bu hame duga: mu.
I will watch over them and I will bring them back to this country. I will build them up and not tear them down; I will plant them and not uproot them.
7 Na da ilia dogo afadenene, ilia da Na da Hina Gode dawa: musa: gini bagade hanamu. Amasea, ilia da Na fi dunu esalumu amola Na da ilia Gode esalumu. Bai ilia da dafawanedafa Nama bu sinidigimu.
I will give them the desire to know me, to know that I am the Lord. They will be my people, and I will be their God, for they will come back completely committed to me.
8 Be Yuda hina bagade Sedegaia amola ea eagene ouligisu dunu, amola Yelusaleme fi da Yuda sogega esala o Idibidi sogega asi, amo huluane, Na, Hina Gode, da figi fage wadela: i manu hamedei, agoai ba: mu.
But the bad figs, so bad they cannot be eaten, says the Lord, represent the way I will deal with Zedekiah, king of Judah, his officials, and those who are left of Jerusalem, as well as those remaining in this country and those living in Egypt.
9 Na da ilima wadela: su bagadedafa iasimu. Amasea, osobo bagade fifi asi gala huluane da beda: iwane fofogadigimu. Osobo bagade dunu da ilima higale oufesega: mu. Na da soge huluane amoga ili afagogomu, amola ilia dioba: le gagabusu aligima: ne ilegemu.
I'm going to make an example of them that will horrify and offend everyone on earth. They will be disgraced, mocked, ridiculed, and cursed everywhere I've exiled them.
10 Na da gegesu amola, ha: amola oloi bagade ilima iasili, amasea soge amo Na da ilia aowalalia ilima i, amo ganodini ili afae esalebe hame ba: mu.”
I'm going to attack them with war and famine and plague, until they're completely wiped out from the country that I gave to them and their forefathers.
