Jeremiah 24:8-10
1599 Geneva Bible
8 (A)And as the naughty 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 [a]in the land of Egypt:
9 I will even give them for a terrible plague to all the kingdoms of the earth, and for a reproach and for a proverb, for a common talk, and for a curse, in all places where I shall cast them.
10 And I will send the sword, the famine, and the pestilence among them, till they be consumed out of the land, that I gave unto them, and to their fathers.

8 “‘But like the bad(A) figs, which are so bad they cannot be eaten,’ says the Lord, ‘so will I deal with Zedekiah(B) king of Judah, his officials(C) and the survivors(D) from Jerusalem, whether they remain in this land or live in Egypt.(E) 9 I will make them abhorrent(F) and an offense to all the kingdoms of the earth, a reproach and a byword,(G) a curse[a](H) and an object of ridicule, wherever I banish(I) them. 10 I will send the sword,(J) famine(K) and plague(L) against them until they are destroyed from the land I gave to them and their ancestors.(M)’”
