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.)
[The army of] King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon captured Jehoiachin, the king of Judah, and his officials, and all his skilled workers [DOU] and took them to Babylon. After that happened, Yahweh gave me a vision. [In the vision] I saw two baskets of figs that had been placed in front of the temple.
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 basket was full of good figs, like the kind that ripen first. The other basket was filled with figs that were bad/rotten, with the result 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.”
Then Yahweh said to me, “Jeremiah, what do you see?” I replied, “[I see some] figs. Some are very good ones, but some are very bad, with the result that no one would eat them.”
4 Ket immay kaniak ti sao ni Yahweh a kinunana,
Then Yahweh gave me this message:
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.
“This is what [I], Yahweh, the God whom the Israeli people [say that they worship], say: ‘The good figs represent [SIM] the people of Judah whom I exiled to Babylonia.
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.
I [SYN] will (watch over/take care of) them well, and [some day] I will bring them back here [to Judah]. I will establish them and cause them to be strong. I will cause them to be prosperous [MET], and I will not exile them [again].
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.
I will enable them to desire to know [IDM] that I am Yahweh. They will be my people, and I will be their God, because they will return to me sincerely.’
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.
But [I], Yahweh, [also] say, ‘The bad figs represent [SIM] Zedekiah, the king of Judah, and his officials, and all the [other] people who remain in Jerusalem, and those who have gone to Egypt. I will do to them like people do to rotten figs.
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.
I will [get rid of them], with the result that people in every nation on the earth will be horrified, and will hate them because they are evil people. Wherever I scatter them, people will make fun of them, and say that they are disgraced, and ridicule them, and curse them.
10 Mangiyegakto kadakuada iti kampilan, bisin, ken didigra, aggibusdanto manipud iti daga nga intedko kadakuada ken kadagiti kapuonanda.”
And I will cause them to experience wars and famines and diseases, until they have disappeared from this land which I gave to them and to their ancestors.’”
