Judges 2:11-19
11And the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 didH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of YhwhH3068, and servedH5647 BaalimH1168: 12And they forsookH5800 YhwhH3068 GodH430 of their fathersH1, which brought them outH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, and followedH310H3212 otherH312 godsH430, of the godsH430 of the peopleH5971 that were round aboutH5439 them, and bowedH7812 themselves unto them, and provoked YhwhH3068 to angerH3707. 13And they forsookH5800 YhwhH3068, and servedH5647 BaalH1168 and AshtarothH6252.
14And the angerH639 of YhwhH3068 was hotH2734 against IsraelH3478, and he deliveredH5414 them into the handsH3027 of spoilersH8154 that spoiledH8155 them, and he soldH4376 them into the handsH3027 of their enemiesH341 round aboutH5439, so that they couldH3201 not any longerH5750 standH5975 beforeH6440 their enemiesH341. 15Whithersoever they went outH3318, the handH3027 of YhwhH3068 was against them for evilH7451, as YhwhH3068 had saidH1696, and as YhwhH3068 had swornH7650 unto them: and they were greatlyH3966 distressedH3334.
16Nevertheless YhwhH3068 raised upH6965 judgesH8199, which deliveredH3467 them out of the handH3027 of those that spoiledH8154 them.1 17And yet they would not hearkenH8085 unto their judgesH8199, but they went a whoringH2181 afterH310 otherH312 godsH430, and bowedH7812 themselves unto them: they turnedH5493 quicklyH4118 out of the wayH1870 which their fathersH1 walked inH1980, obeyingH8085 the commandmentsH4687 of YhwhH3068; but they didH6213 not so. 18And when YhwhH3068 raisedH6965 them up judgesH8199, Then YhwhH3068 was with the judgeH8199, and deliveredH3467 them out of the handH3027 of their enemiesH341 all the daysH3117 of the judgeH8199: for it repentedH5162 YhwhH3068 becauseH6440 of their groaningsH5009 by reason of them that oppressedH3905 them and vexedH1766 them. 19And it came to pass, when the judgeH8199 was deadH4194, that they returnedH7725, and corruptedH7843 themselves more than their fathersH1, in followingH310H3212 otherH312 godsH430 to serveH5647 them, and to bow downH7812 unto them; they ceasedH5307 not from their own doingsH4611, nor from their stubbornH7186 wayH1870.23
