Judges 2:1-10

1Now the Angel of the Lord came up from Gilgal to Bochim. And he said, “I brought you up from Egypt and led you to the land which I swore [to give] to your fathers; and I said, ‘I will never break My covenant with you,

2and as for you, you shall not make a covenant with the inhabitants of this land; you shall tear down their altars.’ But you have not obeyed Me; what is this that you have done?

3So I also said, ‘I will not drive your enemies out before you; but they will be like thorns in your sides and their gods will be a snare to you.’ ”

4When the Angel of the Lord had spoken these words to all the Israelites, the people raised their voices and wept.

5So they named that place Bochim (weepers); and there they offered sacrifices to the Lord.

6And when Joshua had sent the people away, the [tribes of the] Israelites went each to his inheritance, to take possession of the land.

7The people served the Lord all the days of Joshua and all the days of the elders who outlived Joshua, who had seen all the great work of the Lord which He had done for Israel.

8Then Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of the Lord, died at the age of a hundred and ten.

9And they buried him in the territory of his inheritance in Timnath-heres, in the hill country of Ephraim, north of Mount Gaash.

10Also, all [the people of] that generation were gathered to their fathers [in death]; and another generation arose after them who did not know (recognize, understand) the Lord, nor even the work which He had done for Israel.
