Judges 2:1-10

1And an angelH4397 of YhwhH3068 came upH5927 from GilgalH1537 to BochimH1066, and saidH559, I made you to go upH5927 out of EgyptH4714, and have broughtH935 you unto the landH776 which I swareH7650 unto your fathersH1; and I saidH559, I will neverH5769 breakH6565 my covenantH1285 with you.1 2And ye shall makeH3772 no leagueH1285 with the inhabitantsH3427 of this landH776; ye shall throw downH5422 their altarsH4196: but ye have not obeyedH8085 my voiceH6963: why have ye doneH6213 this? 3Wherefore I also saidH559, I will not drive them outH1644 from beforeH6440 you; but they shall be as thorns in your sidesH6654, and their godsH430 shall be a snareH4170 unto you. 4And it came to pass, when the angelH4397 of YhwhH3068 spakeH1696 these wordsH1697 unto all the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, that the peopleH5971 lifted upH5375 their voiceH6963, and weptH1058. 5And they calledH7121 the nameH8034 of that placeH4725 BochimH1066: and they sacrificedH2076 there unto YhwhH3068.2

6And when JoshuaH3091 had let the peopleH5971 goH7971, the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 wentH3212 every manH376 unto his inheritanceH5159 to possessH3423 the landH776. 7And the peopleH5971 servedH5647 YhwhH3068 all the daysH3117 of JoshuaH3091, and all the daysH3117 of the eldersH2205 that outlivedH310H3117H748 JoshuaH3091, who had seenH7200 all the greatH1419 worksH4639 of YhwhH3068, that he didH6213 for IsraelH3478.3 8And JoshuaH3091 the sonH1121 of NunH5126, the servantH5650 of YhwhH3068, diedH4191, being an hundredH3967 and tenH6235 yearsH8141 oldH1121. 9And they buriedH6912 him in the borderH1366 of his inheritanceH5159 in Timnath–heresH8556, in the mountH2022 of EphraimH669, on the north sideH6828 of the hillH2022 GaashH1608.4 10And also all that generationH1755 were gatheredH622 unto their fathersH1: and there aroseH6965 anotherH312 generationH1755 afterH310 them, which knewH3045 not YhwhH3068, nor yet the worksH4639 which he had doneH6213 for IsraelH3478.
