Jeremiah 24:3-5

New Century Version

³ The Lord said to me, “What do you see, Jeremiah?”

I answered, “I see figs. The good figs are very good, but the rotten figs are too rotten to eat.”

⁴ Then the Lord spoke his word to me: ⁵ “This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: ‘I sent the people of Judah out of their country to live in the country of Babylon. I think of those people as good, like these good figs.
