¶ The .xxiiii. Chapter.
¶ The vysyon of the two pannyers of fygges. The
fyrst vysyon sygnyfyeth that parte of þe; people shuld
be brought agayne from captiuyte. The second that
Zedekias ∧ the rest of the people shulde be destroyed.
A The Lorde shewed me a vysion: Beholde,
there stode two maundes of
fygges before the temple of the Lorde,
after that note Nabuchodonosor kynge of
Babylon had led awaye captiue Iechonias
the sonne of Iehoakim kynge of Iuda þe;
myghtie men also of Iuda, with the worckmasters,
and connynge men of Ierusalem,
vnto Babilon. In the one maunde were very
good fygges, euen lyke as those þt; be first
ripe. In þe; other ma&ubar;de were very naughty
fygges, which might not be eaten, they were
so euell. Then sayde the Lorde vnto me:
what seyst thou Ieremy? I sayde note fygges,
wherof some be very good, &abar;d some so euel,
that no man maye eate them.
B Then came the worde of the Lorde vnto
me, after this maner: Thus saieth the Lorde
the God of Israell: lyke as thou knowest
the good figges, so shall I knowe þe; men led
awaye, whom I haue sent out of this place
into the lande of the Caldees, for theyr profyte:
and I will set myne eyes vpon th&ebar; for
the best, for I wyll brynge th&ebar; agayne into
this lande: I wyll buylde them vp, and not
breake them downe: I will plante them, &abar;d
not rote them out. note
C And I wyll geue them
an herte, to knowe how that I am the Lorde.
They shalbe my people, ∧ I will be their
God, for they shall returne vnto me with
their whole herte.
noteAnd lyke as thou knowest the naughtie
figges, which maye not be eat&ebar;, they are
so euell: Euen so wyll I (sayeth the Lorde)
let Zedekias the Kynge of Iuda, (ye and all
his princes, ∧ the residue of Ierusalem that
remayne ouer in thys lande, and them also
that dwell in Egipte) to be vexed and plaged
in all kyngdomes and l&abar;des.
D And wyll
make them to be a note reprofe, a com&ebar; by worde,
a laughynge stocke and shame, in all the
places, where I shall scatre them. I wil sende
the swearde, honger ∧ pestilence amonge
them, vntyll I haue cleane consumed them
-- --
out of the lande, that I gaue vnto them &abar;d
theyr fathers.
