Jeremiah 24:8-10
Young's Literal Translation
8 And like the bad figs, that are not eaten for badness, Surely thus said Jehovah: So do I make Zedekiah king of Judah, And his heads, and the remnant of Jerusalem, Who are left in this land, And who are dwelling in the land of Egypt,
9 And I have given them for a trembling, For evil -- to all kingdoms of the earth, For a reproach, and for a simile, For a byword, and for a reviling, In all the places whither I drive them.
10 And I have sent against them the sword, The famine and the pestilence, Till their consumption from off the ground, That I gave to 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)’”
