< Jeremiah 24 >

1 After Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon had carried away Jeconiah son of Jehoiakim king of Judah, as well as the officials of Judah and the craftsmen and metalsmiths from Jerusalem, and had brought them to Babylon, the LORD showed me two baskets of figs placed in front of the temple of the LORD.
Tas Kungs man rādīja un redzi, tur bija nolikti divi vīģu kurvji Tā Kunga nama priekšā, kad Nebukadnecars, Bābeles ķēniņš, bija aizvedis Jekoniju, Jojaķima dēlu, Jūda ķēniņu līdz ar Jūda lielkungiem, un amatniekus un kalējus, un tos bija novedis no Jeruzālemes uz Bābeli.
2 One basket had very good figs, like those that ripen early, but the other basket contained very poor figs, so bad they could not be eaten.
Vienā kurvī bija ļoti labas vīģes, kā agrejās vīģes, bet otrā kurvī bija ļoti nelāga vīģes, ko nevarēja ēst aiz viņu nelāguma.
3 “Jeremiah,” the LORD asked, “what do you see?” “Figs!” I replied. “The good figs are very good, but the bad figs are very bad, so bad they cannot be eaten.”
Un Tas Kungs sacīja uz mani: ko tu redzi, Jeremija? Un es sacīju: vīģes. Tās labās vīģes ir ļoti labas un tās nelāga vīģes ir ļoti nelabas, ka nevar ēst aiz nelāguma.
4 Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
Tad Tā Kunga vārds uz mani notika sacīdams:
5 “This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘Like these good figs, so I regard as good the exiles from Judah, whom I have sent away from this place to the land of the Chaldeans.
Tā saka Tas Kungs, Israēla Dievs: tā kā šās vīģes labas, tā Es atzīšu par labiem tos, kas no Jūda aizvesti, ko no šās vietas esmu aizsūtījis uz Kaldeju zemi.
6 I will keep My eyes on them for good and will return them to this land. I will build them up and not tear them down; I will plant them and not uproot them.
Un Es Savu aci uz tiem metīšu par labu, un tos atvedīšu atpakaļ uz šo zemi, un tos uztaisīšu un nenolauzīšu, Es tos dēstīšu un neizraušu.
7 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 all their heart.
Un Es tiem došu sirdi, Mani atzīt, ka Es esmu Tas Kungs, un tie Man būs par ļaudīm, un Es tiem būšu par Dievu; jo tie pie Manis atgriezīsies no visas savas sirds.
8 But like the bad figs, so bad they cannot be eaten,’ says the LORD, ‘so will I deal with Zedekiah king of Judah, his officials, and the remnant of Jerusalem—those remaining in this land and those living in the land of Egypt.
Bet kādas tās nelāga vīģes ir, ko nevar ēst aiz nelāguma, tā saka Tas Kungs, par tādiem Es darīšu Cedeķiju, Jūda ķēniņu, un viņa lielkungus un Jeruzālemes atlikušos, kas atlikuši šai zemē un kas dzīvo Ēģiptes zemē.
9 I will make them a horror and an offense to all the kingdoms of the earth, a disgrace and an object of scorn, ridicule, and cursing wherever I have banished them.
Un Es tos nodošu uz vārdzināšanu, uz nelaimi visās pasaules valstīs, uz nievāšanu un uz lamāšanu, uz mēdīšanu un lādēšanu visās vietās, kurp tos būšu aizdzinis.
10 And I will send against them sword and famine and plague, until they have perished from the land that I gave to them and their fathers.’”
Un Es tiem sūtīšu zobenu, badu un mēri, tiekams tie būs izdeldēti no tās zemes, ko Es tiem un viņu tēviem esmu devis.
