耶利米書 24
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
1巴比倫 王 尼布甲尼撒 將 猶大 王 約雅敬 的兒子 耶哥尼雅 和 猶大 的首領，並工匠、鐵匠從 耶路撒冷 擄去，帶到 巴比倫 。這事以後，耶和華指給我看，有兩筐無花果放在耶和華的殿前。
1The LORD showed me, and behold two baskets of figs set before the temple of the LORD; after that Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon had carried away captive Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, and the princes of Judah, with the craftsmen and smiths, from Jerusalem, and had brought them to Babylon.
2一筐是極好的無花果，好像是初熟的；一筐是極壞的無花果，壞得不可吃。
2One basket had very good figs, like the figs that are first-ripe; and the other basket had very bad figs, which could not be eaten, they were so bad.
3於是耶和華問我說：「 耶利米 你看見甚麼？」我說：「我看見無花果，好的極好，壞的極壞，壞得不可吃。」
3Then said the LORD unto me: 'What seest thou, Jeremiah?' And I said: 'Figs; the good figs, very good; and the bad, very bad, that cannot be eaten, they are so bad.'
4耶和華的話臨到我說：「
4And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying:
5耶和華－ 以色列 的上帝如此說：被擄去的 猶大 人，就是我打發離開這地到 迦勒底 人之地去的，我必看顧他們如這好無花果，使他們得好處。
5'Thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel: Like these good figs, so will I regard the captives of Judah, whom I have sent out of this place into the land of the Chaldeans, for good.
6我要眷顧他們，使他們得好處，領他們歸回這地。我也要建立他們，必不拆毀；栽植他們，並不拔出。
6And I will set Mine eyes upon them for good, and I will bring them back to this land; and I will build them, and not pull them down; and I will plant them, and not pluck them up.
7我要賜他們認識我的心，知道我是耶和華。他們要作我的子民，我要作他們的上帝，因為他們要一心歸向我。」
7And 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; for they shall return unto Me with their whole heart.
8耶和華如此說：「我必將 猶大 王 西底家 和他的首領，以及剩在這地 耶路撒冷 的餘民，並住在 埃及 地的 猶大 人都交出來，好像那極壞、壞得不可吃的無花果。
8And as the bad figs, which cannot be eaten, they are so bad; surely thus saith the LORD: So will I make Zedekiah the king of Judah, and his princes, and the residue of Jerusalem, that remain in this land, and them that dwell in the land of Egypt;
9我必使他們交出來，在天下萬國中拋來拋去，遭遇災禍；在我趕逐他們到的各處成為凌辱、笑談、譏刺、咒詛。
9I will even make them a horror among all the kingdoms of the earth for evil; a reproach and a proverb, a taunt and a curse, in all places whither I shall drive them.
10我必使刀劍、饑荒、瘟疫臨到他們，直到他們從我所賜給他們和他們列祖之地滅絕。」
10And I will send the sword, the famine, and the pestilence, among them, till they be consumed from off the land that I gave unto them and to their fathers.'
