The LORDH3068 shewedH7200 me, and, behold, twoH8147 basketsH1736 of figsH8384 were setH3259 beforeH6440 the templeH1964 of the LORDH3068, afterH310 that NebuchadrezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 had carried away captiveH1540 JeconiahH3204 the sonH1121 of JehoiakimH3079 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, and the princesH8269 of JudahH3063, with the carpentersH2796 and smithsH4525, from JerusalemH3389, and had broughtH935 them to BabylonH894.
OneH259 basketH1731 had veryH3966 goodH2896 figsH8384, even like the figsH8384 that are first ripeH1073: and the otherH259 basketH1731 had veryH3966 naughtyH7451 figsH8384, which could not be eatenH398, they were so badH7455. {they…: Heb. for badness}
Then saidH559 the LORDH3068 unto me, What seestH7200 thou, JeremiahH3414? And I saidH559, FigsH8384; the goodH2896 figsH8384, veryH3966 goodH2896; and the evilH7451, veryH3966 evilH7451, that cannot be eatenH398, they are so evilH7455.
Again the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto me, sayingH559,
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; Like these goodH2896 figsH8384, so will I acknowledgeH5234 them that are carried away captiveH1546 of JudahH3063, whom I have sentH7971 out of this placeH4725 into the landH776 of the ChaldeansH3778 for their goodH2896. {them…: Heb. the captivity}
For I will setH7760 mine eyesH5869 upon them for goodH2896, and I will bring them againH7725 to this landH776: and I will buildH1129 them, and not pull them downH2040; and I will plantH5193 them, and not pluck them upH5428.
And I will giveH5414 them an heartH3820 to knowH3045 me, that I am the LORDH3068: and they shall be my peopleH5971, and I will be their GodH430: for they shall returnH7725 unto me with their whole heartH3820.
And as the evilH7451 figsH8384, which cannot be eatenH398, they are so evilH7455; surely thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, So will I giveH5414 ZedekiahH6667 the kingH4428 of JudahH3063, and his princesH8269, and the residueH7611 of JerusalemH3389, that remainH7604 in this landH776, and them that dwellH3427 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714:
And I will deliverH5414 them to be removedH2189+H2113 into all the kingdomsH4467 of the earthH776 for their hurtH7451, to be a reproachH2781 and a proverbH4912, a tauntH8148 and a curseH7045, in all placesH4725 whither I shall driveH5080 them. {to be removed: Heb. for removing, or, vexation}
And I will sendH7971 the swordH2719, the famineH7458, and the pestilenceH1698, among them, till they be consumedH8552 from off the landH127 that I gaveH5414 unto them and to their fathersH1.

And they shall teachH3925 no more every manH376 his neighbourH7453, and every manH376 his brotherH251, sayingH559, KnowH3045 the LORDH3068: for they shall all knowH3045 me, from the leastH6996 of them unto the greatestH1419 of them, saithH5002 the LORDH3068: for I will forgiveH5545 their iniquityH5771, and I will rememberH2142 their sinH2403 no more.

Then shall ye callH7121 upon me, and ye shall goH1980 and prayH6419 unto me, and I will hearkenH8085 unto you.
And ye shall seekH1245 me, and findH4672 me, when ye shall searchH1875 for me with all your heartH3824.
And I will be foundH4672 of you, saithH5002 the LORDH3068: and I will turn awayH7725 your captivityH7622+H7622, and I will gatherH6908 you from all the nationsH1471, and from all the placesH4725 whither I have drivenH5080 you, saithH5002 the LORDH3068; and I will bring you againH7725 into the placeH4725 whence I caused you to be carried away captiveH1540.

And the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 will circumciseH4135 thine heartH3824, and the heartH3824 of thy seedH2233, to loveH157 the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 with all thine heartH3824, and with all thy soulH5315, that thou mayest liveH2416.
Thou hast avouchedH559 the LORDH3068 this dayH3117 to be thy GodH430, and to walkH3212 in his waysH1870, and to keepH8104 his statutesH2706, and his commandmentsH4687, and his judgmentsH4941, and to hearkenH8085 unto his voiceH6963:
And the LORDH3068 hath avouchedH559 thee this dayH3117 to be his peculiarH5459 peopleH5971, as he hath promisedH1696 thee, and that thou shouldest keepH8104 all his commandmentsH4687;
And to makeH5414 thee highH5945 above all nationsH1471 which he hath madeH6213, in praiseH8416, and in nameH8034, and in honourH8597; and that thou mayest be an holyH6918 peopleH5971 unto the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, as he hath spokenH1696.
And shalt returnH7725 unto the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, and shalt obeyH8085 his voiceH6963 according to all that I commandH6680 thee this dayH3117, thou and thy childrenH1121, with all thine heartH3824, and with all thy soulH5315;
That then the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 will turnH7725 thy captivityH7622, and have compassionH7355 upon thee, and will returnH7725 and gatherH6908 thee from all the nationsH5971, whither the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 hath scatteredH6327 thee.
If any of thine be driven outH5080 unto the outmostH7097 parts of heavenH8064, from thence will the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 gatherH6908 thee, and from thence will he fetchH3947 thee:

And I will giveH5414 them oneH259 heartH3820, and I will putH5414 a newH2319 spiritH7307 withinH7130 you; and I will takeH5493 the stonyH68 heartH3820 out of their fleshH1320, and will giveH5414 them an heartH3820 of fleshH1320:
Neither shall they defileH2930 themselves any more with their idolsH1544, nor with their detestable thingsH8251, nor with any of their transgressionsH6588: but I will saveH3467 them out of all their dwellingplacesH4186, wherein they have sinnedH2398, and will cleanseH2891 them: so shall they be my peopleH5971, and I will be their GodH430.
And SamuelH8050 spakeH559 unto all the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, sayingH559, If ye do returnH7725 unto the LORDH3068 with all your heartsH3824, then put awayH5493 the strangeH5236 godsH430 and AshtarothH6252 from amongH8432 you, and prepareH3559 your heartsH3824 unto the LORDH3068, and serveH5647 him only: and he will deliverH5337 you out of the handH3027 of the PhilistinesH6430.
That they may walkH3212 in my statutesH2708, and keepH8104 mine ordinancesH4941, and doH6213 them: and they shall be my peopleH5971, and I will be their GodH430.
My tabernacleH4908 also shall be with them: yea, I will be their GodH430, and they shall be my peopleH5971.
If they sinH2398 against thee, (for there is no manH120 that sinnethH2398 not,) and thou be angryH599 with them, and deliverH5414 them to the enemyH341, so that they carry them awayH7617 captivesH7617 untoH6440 the landH776 of the enemyH341, farH7350 or nearH7138;
Yet if they shall bethinkH7725 themselves in the landH776 whither they were carried captivesH7617, and repentH7725+H3820, and make supplicationH2603 unto thee in the landH776 of them that carried them captivesH7617, sayingH559, We have sinnedH2398, and have done perverselyH5753, we have committed wickednessH7561; {bethink…: Heb. bring back to their heart}
And so returnH7725 unto thee with all their heartH3824, and with all their soulH5315, in the landH776 of their enemiesH341, which led them away captiveH7617, and prayH6419 unto thee towardH1870 their landH776, which thou gavestH5414 unto their fathersH1, the cityH5892 which thou hast chosenH977, and the houseH1004 which I have builtH1129 for thy nameH8034:
Then hearH8085 thou their prayerH8605 and their supplicationH8467 in heavenH8064 thy dwellingH3427 placeH4349, and maintainH6213 their causeH4941, {cause: or, right}
And forgiveH5545 thy peopleH5971 that have sinnedH2398 against thee, and all their transgressionsH6588 wherein they have transgressedH6586 against thee, and giveH5414 them compassionH7356 beforeH6440 them who carried them captiveH7617, that they may have compassionH7355 on them:
For I will takeH3947 you from amongH4480 the heathenH1471, and gatherH6908 you out of all countriesH776, and will bringH935 you into your own landH127.
Then will I sprinkleH2236 cleanH2889 waterH4325 upon you, and ye shall be cleanH2891: from all your filthinessH2932, and from all your idolsH1544, will I cleanseH2891 you.
A newH2319 heartH3820 also will I giveH5414 you, and a newH2319 spiritH7307 will I putH5414 withinH7130 you: and I will take awayH5493 the stonyH68 heartH3820 out of your fleshH1320, and I will giveH5414 you an heartH3820 of fleshH1320.
And I will putH5414 my spiritH7307 withinH7130 you, and causeH6213 you to walkH3212 in my statutesH2706, and ye shall keepH8104 my judgmentsH4941, and doH6213 them.
And ye shall dwellH3427 in the landH776 that I gaveH5414 to your fathersH1; and ye shall be my peopleH5971, and I will be your GodH430.
And I will bringH935 them, and they shall dwellH7931 in the midstH8432 of JerusalemH3389: and they shall be my peopleH5971, and I will be their GodH430, in truthH571 and in righteousnessH6666.
If they returnH7725 to thee with all their heartH3820 and with all their soulH5315 in the landH776 of their captivityH7628, whither they have carried them captivesH7617, and prayH6419 towardH1870 their landH776, which thou gavestH5414 unto their fathersH1, and toward the cityH5892 which thou hast chosenH977, and toward the houseH1004 which I have builtH1129 for thy nameH8034:
And I will bringH935 the third partH7992 through the fireH784, and will refineH6884 them as silverH3701 is refinedH6884, and will tryH974 them as goldH2091 is triedH974: they shall callH7121 on my nameH8034, and I will hearH6030 them: I will sayH559, It is my peopleH5971: and they shall sayH559, The LORDH3068 is my GodH430.
ForG3754 thisG3778 is the covenantG1242 thatG3739 I will makeG1303 with the houseG3624 of IsraelG2474 afterG3326 thoseG1565 daysG2250, saithG3004 the LordG2962; I will putG1325 myG3450 lawsG3551 intoG1519 theirG846 mindG1271, andG2532 writeG1924 themG846 inG1909 theirG846 heartsG2588: andG2532 I will beG2071 toG1519 themG846 a GodG2316, andG2532 theyG846 shall beG2071 toG1519 meG3427 a peopleG2992: {put: Gr. give} {in: or, upon}
Let the wickedH7563 forsakeH5800 his wayH1870, and the unrighteousH205 manH376 his thoughtsH4284: and let him returnH7725 unto the LORDH3068, and he will have mercyH7355 upon him; and to our GodH430, for he will abundantlyH7235 pardonH5545. {the unrighteous…: Heb. the man of iniquity} {abundantly…: Heb. multiply to pardon}
ButG1161 nowG3570 they desireG3713 a betterG2909 country, that isG5123, an heavenlyG2032: whereforeG1352 GodG2316 isG1870 notG3756 ashamedG1870+G846 to be calledG1941 theirG846 GodG2316: forG1063 he hath preparedG2090 for themG846 a cityG4172.
O IsraelH3478, returnH7725 unto the LORDH3068 thy GodH430; for thou hast fallenH3782 by thine iniquityH5771.
TakeH3947 with you wordsH1697, and turnH7725 to the LORDH3068: sayH559 unto him, Take awayH5375 all iniquityH5771, and receiveH3947 us graciouslyH2896: so will we renderH7999 the calvesH6499 of our lipsH8193. {receive…: or, give good}
AsshurH804 shall not saveH3467 us; we will not rideH7392 upon horsesH5483: neither will we sayH559 any more to the workH4639 of our handsH3027, Ye are our godsH430: for in thee the fatherlessH3490 findeth mercyH7355.
