< Jeremias 24 >

1 Nangipakita ni Yahweh iti maysa a banag kaniak. Nakitak iti dua a basket ti igos a naikabil iti sangoanan ti templo ni Yahweh. (Napasamak daytoy a sirmata kalpasan nga impanaw ni Nebucadnesar, nga ari iti Babilonia, ni Jeconias a putot ni Jehoyakim nga ari ti Juda, dagiti opisial ti Juda, dagiti kumikitikit, dagiti agpanpanday manipud Jerusalem ket impanna ida kas balud idiay Babilonia.)
Jehovah showed me this vision. Behold, two baskets of figs were set before the temple of Jehovah. This was after Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, had carried away captive Jeconiah, the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, and the princes of Judah, and the artificers, and the smiths, from Jerusalem, and had led them to Babylon.
2 Maysa a basket nga igos ti nasayaat, kasla umuna a naluom nga igos dagitoy, ngem ti sabali a basket ti igos ket nalungsot ken saan a mabalin a kanen dagitoy.
One of the baskets contained very good figs, like those which are first ripe. The other contained very bad figs, so bad that they could not be eaten.
3 Kinuna ni Yahweh kaniak, “Ania ti makitam Jeremias?” Kinunak, “Igos. Igos a nasayaat unay ken igos a nalungsot a saanen a mabalin a kanen.”
And Jehovah said to me, What seest thou, Jeremiah? And I said: Figs; the good figs, exceedingly good; and the bad, exceedingly bad, so bad that they cannot be eaten.
4 Ket immay kaniak ti sao ni Yahweh a kinunana,
Then came the word of Jehovah to me, saying:
5 “Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, a Dios ti Israel: Talliawekto dagiti naitalaw a kas balud manipud iti Juda para iti pagsayaatanda, kas kadagitoy nasayaat nga igos, dagiti naipanaw a kas balud manipud iti daytoy a lugar nga impaipanko iti daga dagiti Caldeo.
Thus saith Jehovah, the God of Israel: As these good figs, so will I regard the captives of Judah, whom I have sent out of this place into the land of Chaldaea for their good;
6 Ikitakto dagiti matak kadakuada a maipaay iti pagsayaatanda ket isublikto ida iti daytoy a daga. Ipatakderkonto ida a saan ket a rebbaen. Imulakto ida, a saan ket a paruten.
yea, I will set my eyes upon them for good, and I will bring them again to this land; and I will build them up, and not pull them down; and I will plant them, and not pluck them up.
7 Ket ikkakto ida iti puso a mangam-ammo kaniak, ta siak ni Yahweh. Agbalindanto a tattaok ken Siakto ti Diosda, Iti kasta agsublidanto kaniak iti amin a pusoda.
And I will give them a heart to know me, that I am Jehovah; and they shall be my people, and I will be their God; for they shall return to me with their whole heart.
8 Ngem kas iti nadadael nga igos a saanen a mabalin a kanen— kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh—Agtignayakto iti kastoy a wagas kenni Zedekias nga ari ti Juda, agraman dagiti opisialna, ken kadagiti dadduma pay iti Jerusalem a nagtalinaed iti daytoy a daga wenno mapanda agnaed iti daga ti Egipto.
And as the bad figs, which are so bad that they cannot be eaten, saith Jehovah, so will I make Zedekiah, the king of Judah, and his princes, and the residue of Jerusalem, those that are left in this land, and those that dwell in the land of Egypt;
9 Pagbalinekto ida a nakabutbuteng, maysa a didigra, iti imatang dagiti amin a pagarian iti daga, maysa a nakababain, ken linaonto dagiti proverbio, pananguyaw, ken lunod iti tungga lugar a pangipanakto kadakuada.
and I will give them up to oppression and affliction in all the kingdoms of the earth; yea, to be a reproach and a proverb, a taunt and a curse, in all places whither I shall drive them.
10 Mangiyegakto kadakuada iti kampilan, bisin, ken didigra, aggibusdanto manipud iti daga nga intedko kadakuada ken kadagiti kapuonanda.”
And I will send the sword, the famine, and the pestilence among them, till they be consumed from the land, which I gave to them and to their fathers.
