1Afta King Nebukadnezzar for Babilon don karry Jehoiakim pikin Jekonaya, wey bi King for Judah, en ofisas and all di pipol wey get handwork go Babilon, God kon show mi two basket wey fig fruit full for di temple front.
2Na good fig full di first basket; figs wey kwik ripe; but na bad fig wey dem nor go fit chop dey di sekond one.
3Den God tell mi, “Jeremaya, wetin yu dey si?” I ansa, “Na fig! Di good ones don ripe, while di bad ones don spoil.”
4So God tell mi,
5“Mi, di Oga wey bi Israel God sey, ‘Di pipol wey dem karry go Babilon bi like dis good fig and I go trit dem well with kindness.
6I go kare for dem kon bring dem kom back to dis land. I go karry dem up and nor-tin go fit bring dem down. I go plant dem and nor-tin go fit rut dem.
