Judges 2:1-10

1Now 1the angel of the Lord came up from Gilgal to 2Bochim. And he said, “3I brought you up out of Egypt and led you into the land which I have sworn to your fathers; and I said, ‘4I will never break My covenant with you, 2and as for you, 5you shall not make a covenant with the inhabitants of this land; 6you shall tear down their altars.’ But you have not 7obeyed Me; what is this thing that you have done? 3Therefore I also said, ‘8I will not drive them out from you; but they will 9become 10like thorns in your sides, and their gods will be a snare to you.’” 4Now when the angel of the Lord spoke these words to all the sons of Israel, the people raised their voices and wept. 5So they named that place 11Bochim; and there they sacrificed to the Lord.

612When Joshua had dismissed the people, the sons of Israel went, each one 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 13survived 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 110. 9And they buried him in the territory of 14his inheritance in Timnath-heres, in the hill country of Ephraim, north of Mount Gaash. 10All that generation also were gathered to their fathers; and another generation rose up after them who 15did not know the Lord, nor even the work which He had done for Israel.
