< Jeremiah 24 >

1 The LORD shewed 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.
Показа мне Господь, и се, две кошницы полны смоквий поставлены пред храмом Господним, повнегда преведе Навуходоносор царь Вавилонский Иехонию сына Иоакимова, царя Иудина, и началников его и художников, и узников и богатых от Иерусалима, и преведе их в Вавилон.
2 One 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.
Кошница едина смоквий добрых зело, яко обычай смоквам быти первых времен, и кошница другая смоквий злых зело, ихже ясти не возможно за худость их.
3 Then 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.
И рече Господь ко мне: что ты видиши, Иеремие? И рекох: смокви, смокви добрыя, добры зело: и злыя, злы зело, ихже ясти не возможно за худость их.
4 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
И бысть слово Господне ко мне, рекущее:
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.
сия глаголет Господь Бог Израилев: якоже смокви сия благи, тако познаю преселеных Иудеев, ихже послах от места сего в землю Халдейску во благая:
6 For I will set mine eyes upon them for good, and I will bring them again to this land: and I will build them, and not pull them down; and I will plant them, and not pluck them up.
и утвержу очи Мои на них во благая и преведу их паки в землю сию во благая: и возсозижду их и не разорю, и насажду их и не исторгну:
7 And I will give them an 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.
и дам им сердце, да уведят Мя, яко Аз есмь Господь, и будут Мне в люди, и Аз буду им в Бога: понеже обратятся ко Мне всем сердцем своим.
8 And as the bad figs, which cannot be eaten, they are so bad; surely thus saith the LORD, So will I give up 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:
И якоже смокви злыя, ихже ясти не возможно за худость их, сия рече Господь, тако предам Седекию царя Иудина и началники его и останок от Иерусалима, иже осташа во граде сем и иже обитают во земли Египетстей,
9 I will even give them up to be tossed to and fro among all the kingdoms of the earth for evil; to be a reproach and a proverb, a taunt and a curse, in all places whither I shall drive them.
и дам их в расточение и озлобление всем царствам земным, и будут в поношение и в притчу, и в ненависть и в проклятие во всех местех, в няже извергох их:
10 And 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.
и послю на них мечь и глад и пагубу, дондеже изчезнут от земли, юже дах им и отцем их.
