And I said, Figs; the good figs, very good; and the bad, very bad, that cannot be eaten, they are so bad. 4 Again the word of the LORD came to me, saying, 5 Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel; Like these good figs, so will I acknowledge those who 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 My 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 a 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 to Me with their whole heart.
