Judges 2:1-10

1Now the angelH43971 of the LORDH3068 went upH5927 fromH4480 GilgalH1537 toH413 BochimH1066 and saidH559, “I brought you upH5927 out of EgyptH4714 and ledH935 you intoH413 the landH776 thatH834 I had promisedH7650 to your fathersH1, and I saidH559, ‘I will neverH3808H5769 breakH6565 My covenantH1285 with youH854, 2and youH859 are notH3808 to makeH3772 a covenantH1285 with the peopleH3427 of thisH2063 landH776, but you shall tear downH5422 their altarsH4196.’

Yet you have notH3808 obeyedH8085 My voiceH6963. WhatH4100 is thisH2063 you have doneH6213? 3So nowH1571 I tell youH559 that I will notH3808 drive outH1644 these people before youH6440; they will beH1961 thorns in your sidesH6654, and their godsH430 will beH1961 a snareH4170 to you.”

When the angelH4397 of the LORDH3068 had spokenH1696 theseH428 wordsH1697 toH413 allH3605 the IsraelitesH1121H3478, the peopleH5971 lifted upH5375 their voicesH6963 and weptH1058. 5So they calledH7121H8034 thatH1931 placeH4725 BochimH10662 and offered sacrificesH2076 thereH8033 to the LORDH3068.

6After JoshuaH3091 had dismissedH7971 the peopleH5971, the IsraelitesH1121H3478 went outH1980 to take possession ofH3423 the landH776, eachH376 to his own inheritanceH5159. 7And the peopleH5971 servedH5647 the LORDH3068 throughoutH3605 the daysH3117 of JoshuaH3091 and of the eldersH2205 whoH834 outlivedH748H3117H310 him, whoH834 had seenH7200 allH3605 the greatH1419 worksH4639 thatH834 the LORDH3068 had doneH6213 for IsraelH3478.

8And JoshuaH3091 sonH1121 of NunH5126, the servantH5650 of the LORDH3068, diedH4191 at the ageH1121H8141 of 110H3967H6235. 9They buriedH6912 himH853 in the landH1366 of his inheritanceH5159, at Timnath-heresH85563 in the hill countryH2022 of EphraimH669, northH6828 of MountH2022 GaashH1608.

10After thatH310 wholeH3605 generationH1755 had alsoH1571 been gatheredH622 toH413 their fathersH1, anotherH312 generationH1755 rose upH6965 whoH834 did notH3808 knowH3045 the LORDH3068 orH1571 the worksH4639 thatH834 He had doneH6213 for IsraelH3478.
