Iudges 2

1 An angel rebuketh the people at Bochim. 6 The wickedness of the new generation after Joshua. 14 God's anger and pity towards them. 20 The Canaanites are left to prove Israel.

 2:1 ¶ And an Angel 4397 of the LORD 3068 came vp 5927 z8799 from x4480 Gilgal 1537 to x413 Bochim, 1066 and said, 559 z8799 I made you to goe vp 5927 z8686 x853 out of Egypt, 4714 x4480 and haue brought 935 z8686 you vnto x413 the land 776 which x834 I sware 7650 z8738 vnto your fathers, 1 and I said, 559 z8799 I will neuer 5769 x3808 breake 6565 z8686 my Couenant 1285 with x854 you.

 2:2 And yee x859 shall make 3772 z8799 no x3808 league 1285 with the inhabitants 3427 z8802 of this x2063 land, 776 you shal throw downe 5422 z8799 their altars: 4196 But ye haue not x3808 obeyed 8085 z8804 my voyce; 6963 Why x4100 haue ye done 6213 z8804 this? x2063

 2:3 Wherefore I also x1571 said, 559 z8804 I will not x3808 driue them out 1644 z8762 x853 from before 6440 x4480 you: but they shalbe x1961 [as thornes] in your sides, 6654 and their gods 430 shalbe x1961 a snare 4170 vnto you.

 2:4 And it came to passe x1961 when the Angel 4397 of the LORD 3068 spake 1696 z8763 x853 these x428 words 1697 vnto x413 all x3605 the children 1121 of Israel, 3478 that the people 5971 lift vp 5375 z8799 x853 their voice, 6963 and wept. 1058 z8799

 2:5 And they called 7121 z8799 the name 8034 of that x1931 place 4725 Bochim: 1066 and they sacrificed 2076 z8799 there x8033 vnto the LORD. 3068

 2:6 ¶ And when Ioshua 3091 had let x853 the people 5971 goe, 7971 z8762 the children 1121 of Israel 3478 went y3212 z8799 x1980 euery man 376 vnto his inheritance, 5159 to possesse 3423 z8800 x853 the land. 776

 2:7 And the people 5971 serued 5647 z8799 x853 the LORD 3068 all x3605 the dayes 3117 of Ioshua, 3091 and all x3605 the dayes 3117 of the Elders 2205 that x834 outliued 748 3117 310 z8689 Ioshua, 3091 who x834 had seene 7200 z8804 x853 all x3605 the great 1419 workes 4639 of the LORD, 3068 that x834 hee did 6213 z8804 for Israel. 3478

 2:8 And Ioshua 3091 the sonne 1121 of Nun, 5126 the seruant 5650 of the LORD 3068 died, 4191 z8799 being an hundred 3967 and ten 6235 yeeres 8141 old. 1121

 2:9 And they buried 6912 z8799 him in the border 1366 of his inheritance 5159 in Timnath-Heres, 8556 in the mount 2022 of Ephraim, 669 on the North side 6828 x4480 of the hill 2022 Gaash. 1608

 2:10 And also x1571 all x3605 that x1931 generation 1755 were gathered 622 z8738 vnto x413 their fathers: 1 and there arose 6965 z8799 another 312 generation 1755 after 310 them, which x834 knew 3045 z8804 not x3808 x853 the LORD, 3068 nor yet x1571 x853 the woorkes 4639 which x834 hee had done 6213 z8804 for Israel. 3478

 2:11 ¶ And the children 1121 of Israel 3478 did 6213 z8799 x853 euil 7451 in the sight 5869 of the LORD, 3068 and serued 5647 z8799 x853 Baalim: 1168

 2:12 And they forsooke 5800 z8799 x853 the LORD 3068 God 430 of their fathers, 1 which brought them out 3318 z8688 x853 of the land 776 x4480 of Egypt, 4714 and followed 310 y3212 z8799 x1980 other 312 gods, 430 of the gods 430 x4480 of the people 5971 that x834 were round about 5439 them, and bowed y7812 z8691 themselues x7812 vnto them, and prouoked x3707 x853 the LORD 3068 to anger. 3707 z8686

 2:13 And they forsooke 5800 z8799 x853 the LORD, 3068 and serued 5647 z8799 Baal 1168 and Ashtaroth. 6252

 2:14 ¶ And the anger 639 of the LORD 3068 was hote 2734 z8799 against Israel, 3478 and he deliuered 5414 z8799 them into the hands 3027 of spoilers 8154 z8802 that spoiled 8155 z8799 them, and he sold 4376 z8799 them into the hands 3027 of their enemies 341 z8802 round about, 5439 x4480 so that they could 3201 z8804 not x3808 any longer 5750 stand 5975 z8800 before 6440 their enemies. 341 z8802

 2:15 Whither soeuer x3605 x834 they went out, 3318 z8804 the hand 3027 of the LORD 3068 was x1961 against them for euill, 7451 as x834 the LORD 3068 had said, 1696 z8765 and as x834 the LORD 3068 had sworne 7650 z8738 vnto them: and they were greatly 3966 distressed. 3334 z8799

 2:16 ¶ Neuerthelesse, the LORD 3068 raysed vp 6965 z8686 Iudges, 8199 z8802 which deliuered 3467 z8686 them out of the hand 3027 x4480 of those that spoyled 8154 z8802 them.

 2:17 And yet x1571 they would not x3808 hearken 8085 z8804 vnto x413 their Iudges, 8199 z8802 but x3588 they went a whoring 2181 z8804 after 310 other 312 gods, 430 and bowed y7812 z8691 themselues x7812 vnto them: they turned 5493 z8804 quickly 4118 out of x4480 the way, 1870 which x834 their fathers 1 walked x1980 in, y1980 z8804 obeying 8085 z8800 the Commandements 4687 of the LORD; 3068 [but] they did 6213 z8804 not x3808 so. x3651

 2:18 And when x3588 the LORD 3068 raised y6965 z8689 them vp x6965 Iudges, 8199 z8802 then the LORD 3068 was x1961 with x5973 the Iudge, 8199 z8802 and deliuered 3467 z8689 them out of the hand 3027 x4480 of their enemies, 341 z8802 all x3605 the dayes 3117 of the Iudge 8199 z8802 (for x3588 it repented 5162 z8735 the LORD, 3068 because y6440 of their gronings 5009 x4480 by reason of them x4480 x6440 that oppressed 3905 z8801 them, and vexed 1766 z8802 them:)

 2:19 And it came to passe x1961 when the Iudge 8199 z8802 was dead, y4194 x4191 that they returned, 7725 z8799 and corrupted 7843 z8689 themselues more then their fathers, 1 x4480 in following 310 y3212 z8800 x1980 other 312 gods, 430 to serue 5647 z8800 them, and to bow downe 7812 z8692 vnto them: they ceased 5307 z8689 not x3808 from their owne doings, 4611 x4480 nor from their stubborne y7186 way. 1870 x4480 x7186

 2:20 ¶ And the anger 639 of the LORD 3068 was hote 2734 z8799 against Israel, 3478 and he said, 559 z8799 Because x3282 that x834 this x2088 people 1471 hath transgressed 5674 z8804 x853 my Couenant 1285 which x834 I commanded 6680 z8765 x853 their fathers, 1 and haue not x3808 hearkened 8085 z8804 vnto my voice: 6963

 2:21 I x589 also x1571 will not x3808 henceforth 3254 z8686 driue out 3423 z8687 any 376 from before 6440 x4480 them of x4480 the nations 1471 which x834 Ioshua 3091 left 5800 z8804 when he died: 4191 z8799

 2:22 That x4616 through them I may proue 5254 z8763 x853 Israel, 3478 whether they x1992 will keepe 8104 z8802 x853 the way 1870 of the LORD, 3068 to walke y3212 z8800 x1980 therein, as x834 their fathers 1 did keepe 8104 z8804 [it], or x518 not. x3808

 2:23 Therefore the LORD 3068 left y3240 z8686 x5117 x853 those x428 nations, 1471 without 1115 driuing them out 3423 z8687 hastily, 4118 neither x3808 deliuered 5414 z8804 he them into the hand 3027 of Ioshua. 3091
