Jeremiah 24

DOUAI-RHEIMS	LXX
1 The Lord shewed me: and behold two baskets full of figs, set before the temple of the Lord: after that Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon had carried away Jechonias the son of Joakim the king of Juda, and his chief men, and the craftsmen, and engravers of Jerusalem, and had brought them to Babylon.	1 εδειξεν μοι κυριος δυο καλαθους συκων κειμενους κατα προσωπον ναου κυριου μετα το αποικισαι ναβουχοδονοσορ βασιλεα βαβυλωνος τον ιεχονιαν υιον ιωακιμ βασιλεα ιουδα και τους αρχοντας και τους τεχνιτας και τους δεσμωτας και τους πλουσιους εξ ιερουσαλημ και ηγαγεν αυτους εις βαβυλωνα
2 One basket had very good figs, like the figs of the first season: and the other basket had very bad figs, which could not be eaten, because they were bad.	2 ο καλαθος ο εις συκων χρηστων σφοδρα ως τα συκα τα προιμα και ο καλαθος ο ετερος συκων πονηρων σφοδρα α ου βρωθησεται απο πονηριας αυτων
3 And the Lord said to me: What seest thou, Jeremias? And I said: Figs, the good figs, very good: and the bad figs, very bad, which cannot be eaten because they are bad.	3 και ειπεν κυριος προς με τι συ ορας ιερεμια και ειπα συκα τα χρηστα χρηστα λιαν και τα πονηρα πονηρα λιαν α ου βρωθησεται απο πονηριας αυτων
4 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:	4 και εγενετο λογος κυριου προς με λεγων
5 Thus saith the Lord the God of Israel: Like these good figs, so will I regard the captives of Juda, whom I have sent forth out of this place into the land oif the Chaldeans, for their own good.	5 ταδε λεγει κυριος ο θεος ισραηλ ως τα συκα τα χρηστα ταυτα ουτως επιγνωσομαι τους αποικισθεντας ιουδα ους εξαπεσταλκα εκ του τοπου τουτου εις γην χαλδαιων εις αγαθα
6 And I will set my eyes upon them to be pacified, and I will bring them again into this land: and I will be their God: and I will build them up, and not pull them down: and I will plant them, and not pluck them up.	6 και στηριω τους οφθαλμους μου επ' αυτους εις αγαθα και αποκαταστησω αυτους εις την γην ταυτην εις αγαθα και ανοικοδομησω αυτους και ου μη καθελω και καταφυτευσω αυτους και ου μη εκτιλω
7 And 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: because they shall return to me with their whole heart.	7 και δωσω αυτοις καρδιαν του ειδεναι αυτους εμε οτι εγω ειμι κυριος και εσονται μοι εις λαον και εγω εσομαι αυτοις εις θεον οτι επιστραφησονται επ' εμε εξ ολης της καρδιας αυτων
8 And as the very bad figs, that cannot be eaten, because they are bad: thus saith the Lord: So will I give Sedecias the king of Juda, and his princes, and the residue of Jerusalem, that have remained in this city, and that dwell in the land of Egypt.	8 και ως τα συκα τα πονηρα α ου βρωθησεται απο πονηριας αυτων ταδε λεγει κυριος ουτως παραδωσω τον σεδεκιαν βασιλεα ιουδα και τους μεγιστανας αυτου και το καταλοιπον ιερουσαλημ τους υπολελειμμενους εν τη γη ταυτη και τους κατοικουντας εν αιγυπτω
9 And I will deliver them up to vexation, and affliction, to all the kingdoms of the earth: to be a reproach, and a byword, and a proverb, and to be a curse in all places, to which I have cast them out.	9 και δωσω αυτους εις διασκορπισμον εις πασας τας βασιλειας της γης και εσονται εις ονειδισμον και εις παραβολην και εις μισος και εις καταραν εν παντι τοπω ου εξωσα αυτους εκει
10 And I will send among them the sword, and the famine, and the pestilence: till they be consumed out of the land which I gave to them, and their fathers.	10 και αποστελω εις αυτους τον λιμον και τον θανατον και την μαχαιραν εως αν εκλιπωσιν απο της γης ης εδωκα αυτοις
