Judges 2:11-22

11And the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 didH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068, and servedH5647 BaalimH1168: 12And they forsookH5800 the LORDH3068 GodH430 of their fathersH1, who brought them outH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, and followedH3212H310 otherH312 godsH430, of the godsH430 of the peopleH5971 that were aroundH5439 them, and bowedH7812 themselves to them, and provoked the LORDH3068 to angerH3707. 13And they forsookH5800 the LORDH3068, and servedH5647 BaalH1168 and AshtarothH6252. 14And the angerH639 of the LORDH3068 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 aroundH5439 them, so that they couldH3201 not any longerH5750 standH5975 beforeH6440 their enemiesH341. 15Wherever they went outH3318, the handH3027 of the LORDH3068 was against them for evilH7451, as the LORDH3068 had saidH1696, and as the LORDH3068 had swornH7650 to them: and they were greatlyH3966 distressedH3334. 16Nevertheless the LORDH3068 raised upH6965 judgesH8199, who deliveredH3467 them out of the handH3027 of those that spoiledH8154 them.1 17And yet they would not hearkenH8085 to their judgesH8199, but they played the harlot withH2181H310 otherH312 godsH430, and bowedH7812 themselves to them: they turnedH5493 quicklyH4118 out of the wayH1870 which their fathersH1 walked inH1980, obeyingH8085 the commandmentsH4687 of the LORDH3068; but they didH6213 not so. 18And when the LORDH3068 raisedH6965 up judgesH8199 for them, then the LORDH3068 was with the judgeH8199, and deliveredH3467 them out of the handH3027 of their enemiesH341 all the daysH3117 of the judgeH8199: for the LORDH3068 repentedH5162 becauseH6440 of their groaningsH5009 by reason of them that oppressedH3905 them and burdenedH1766 them. 19And it came to pass, when the judgeH8199 was deadH4194, that they returnedH7725, and corruptedH7843 themselves more than their fathersH1, in followingH3212H310 otherH312 godsH430 to serveH5647 them, and to bow downH7812 to them; they ceasedH5307 not from their own doingsH4611, nor from their stubbornH7186 wayH1870.23 20And the angerH639 of the LORDH3068 was hotH2734 against IsraelH3478; and he saidH559, Because that this peopleH1471 hath transgressedH5674 my covenantH1285 which I commandedH6680 their fathersH1, and have not hearkenedH8085 to my voiceH6963; 21I also will not henceforthH3254 drive outH3423H376 from beforeH6440 them any of the nationsH1471 which JoshuaH3091 leftH5800 when he diedH4191: 22That through them I may testH5254 IsraelH3478, whether they will keepH8104 the wayH1870 of the LORDH3068 to walkH3212 in it, as their fathersH1 keptH8104 it, or not.
