Jeremiah 24:6-8
International Standard Version
6 I’ll look at them with good intentions, and I’ll bring them back to this land. I’ll build them up. I won’t tear them down; I’ll plant them and not rip them up. 7 I’ll give them the ability[a] to know me, for I am the Lord. They will be my people, and I will be their God when they return to me with all their heart.
8 “‘Like the bad figs that are too bad to be eaten—for this is what the Lord says—so I’ll give up on Zedekiah king of Judah, along with his officials, the remnant of Jerusalem that is left in this land, and those living in the land of Egypt.
