Jeremiah 24:8-10

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁸ ‘But like the ^(A)bad figs which cannot be eaten due to rottenness—indeed, thus says the Lord—so I will ^[a]abandon ^(B)Zedekiah king of Judah and his officials, and the ^(C)remnant of Jerusalem who remain in this land and the ones who dwell in the land of ^(D)Egypt. ⁹ I will ^(E)make them a terror and an evil for all the kingdoms of the earth, as a ^(F)reproach and a proverb, a taunt and a ^(G)curse in all places where I will scatter them. ¹⁰ I will send the ^(H)sword, the famine and the pestilence upon them until they are destroyed from the land which I gave to them and their forefathers.’”
