1 The LORD shewed me, and, behold, two baskets of figs were 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 carpenters and smiths, from Jerusalem, and had brought them to Babylon. 2 One basket had very good figs, even like the figs that are first ripe: and the other basket had very naughty figs, which could not be eaten, they were so bad. 3 Then said the LORD unto me, What seest thou, Jeremiah? And I said, Figs; the good figs, very good; and the evil, very evil, that cannot be eaten, they are so evil.
4 ¶ Again the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, 5 Thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel; Like these good figs, so will I acknowledge them that are carried away captive of Judah, whom I have sent out of this place into the land of the Chaldeans for their good. 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. 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.
8 ¶ And as the evil figs, which cannot be eaten, they are so evil; surely thus saith the LORD, So will I give 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: 9 And I will deliver them to be removed into all the kingdoms of the earth for their hurt, to be a reproach and a proverb, a taunt and a curse, in all places whither I shall drive them. 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.

Ikki savat anjir
1 Egamiz menga Maʼbad oldida turgan ikki savat anjirni koʻrsatdi. Bu voqea Bobil shohi Navuxadnazar Quddusdagi Yahudo shohi Yohayixinni , Yahudo aʼyonlarini, hunarmandlaru temirchilarni Bobilga asir qilib olib ketgandan soʻng sodir boʻldi. Shoh Yohayixin Yohayiqimning oʻgʻli edi. 2 Men koʻrgan savatlarning birida yaxshi chillaki anjirlar, boshqasida esa yomon, yeb boʻlmaydigan anjirlar bor edi.
3 Egamiz mendan:
— Yeremiyo, nimani koʻryapsan? — deb soʻradi.
— Anjirlarni, — deb javob berdim men. — Yaxshi anjirlar nihoyatda yaxshi ekan, yomonlari esa yeb boʻlmaydigan darajada irib ketgan ekan.
4 Shunda Egamiz menga Oʻz soʻzini ayon qildi: 5 Isroil xalqining Xudosi — Egamiz shunday demoqda: “Bobilliklarning yurtiga surgun boʻlgan Yahudo asirlari oʻsha yaxshi anjirlarga oʻxshaydi. Men ularga iltifot koʻrsataman. 6 Nazarimni solib, yaxshilik qilaman, ularni bu yurtga qaytarib olib kelaman. Ularni yoʻq qilmayman, balki qayta bunyod etaman. Qoʻporib tashlamayman, balki barqaror qilaman. 7 Qalblariga Meni bilish istagini solaman, ular Meni Egamiz deb tan oladilar. Butun qalblari bilan Menga qaytadilar. Ular Mening xalqim boʻladi, Men esa ularning Xudosi boʻlaman.”
8 Ammo Yahudo shohi Zidqiyo toʻgʻrisida, uning aʼyonlari, Quddusning omon qolgan aholisi va Misrga qochib borganlari toʻgʻrisida Egamiz shunday demoqda: “Ular yeb boʻlmaydigan anjirlarga oʻxshaydi. Irigan anjirlarni nima qilishsa, Men ham ularni shunday qilaman. 9 Ularning boshiga shunday kulfat solamanki, buni koʻrgan yer yuzidagi barcha xalqlar dahshatga tushadi. Men ularni tarqatib yuborgan hamma joyda odamlar ularning ustidan kuladi, ularni mazax qiladi, xor qiladi, nomini qargʻishlarda ishlatadi. 10 Men ularga va ota–bobolariga bergan yurtdan ularni qirib tashlamagunimcha boshlariga urush, ocharchilik va oʻlat yuboraman.”
