Jeremijas 24

1 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.

The Lord shewed me: and behold two baskets full of figs, set before the temple of the Lord: after that Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon had carried away Jechonias the son of Joakim the king of Juda, and his chief men, and the craftsmen, and engravers of Jerusalem, and had brought them to Babylon.

2 Vienā kurvī bija ļoti labas vīģes, kā agrejās vīģes, bet otrā kurvī bija ļoti nelāga vīģes, ko nevarēja ēst aiz viņu nelāguma.

One basket had very good figs, like the figs of the first season: and the other basket had very bad figs, which could not be eaten, because they were bad.

3 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.

And the Lord said to me: What seest thou, Jeremias? And I said: Figs, the good figs, very good: and the bad figs, very bad, which cannot be eaten because they are bad.

4 Tad Tā Kunga vārds uz mani notika sacīdams:

And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:

5 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.

Thus saith the Lord the God of Israel: Like these good figs, so will I regard the captives of Juda, whom I have sent forth out of this place into the land of the Chaldeans, for their own good.

6 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.

And I will set my eyes upon them to be pacified, and I will bring them again into this land: and I will be their God: and I will build them up, and not pull them down: and I will plant them, and not pluck them up.

7 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.

And I will give them a heart to know me, that I am the Lord: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God: because they shall return to me with their whole heart.

8 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.

And as the very bad figs, that cannot be eaten, because they are bad: thus saith the Lord: So will I give Sedecias the king of Juda, and his princes, and the residue of Jerusalem, that have remained in this city, and that dwell in the land of Egypt.

9 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.

And I will deliver them up to vexation, and affliction, to all the kingdoms of the earth: to be a reproach, and a byword, and a proverb, and to be a curse in all places, to which I have cast them out.

10 Un Es tiem sūtīšu zobenu, badu un mēri, tiekams tie būs izdeldēti no tās zemes, ko Es tiem un viņu tēviem esmu devis.

And I will send among them the sword, and the famine, and the pestilence: till they be consumed out of the land which I gave to them, and their fathers.
