King James Version
Now
the
angel of the LORD went
up from Gilgal to Bochim and said, “
I brought
you up out of Egypt and led
you into
the land that
I had
promised
to
your fathers ,
and I said, ‘
I will never break My covenant with you ,
And
an
angel of the LORD came
up from Gilgal to Bochim ,
and said, I made
you to
go
up out of Egypt ,
and have
brought
you unto
the land which
I sware
unto
your fathers ;
and I said, I will never break my covenant with you .
and you
are
not
to
make a
covenant
with the people
of this land ,
but
you
shall tear
down their altars .’
Yet
you
have not obeyed My voice .
What
is
this
you
have done?
And ye
shall
make no
league
with the inhabitants
of this land ;
ye
shall throw
down their altars :
but
ye
have not obeyed my voice :
why
have ye
done this
?
So
now
I tell
you
that
I will not drive out these
people
before you; they will
be thorns in your sides, and their gods will
be a snare to
you. ”
Wherefore
I also
said,
I will not drive them
out from
before you; but
they shall
be as
thorns in your sides, and their gods shall
be a snare unto
you.
When the angel of the LORD had
spoken
these words to
all the Israelites
, the people lifted up their voices
and wept.
And
it
came
to
pass,
when the angel of the LORD spake
these words unto
all the children
of
Israel
, that
the people lifted up their voice,
and wept.
So
they called that place Bochim and offered
sacrifices
there to
the LORD.
And
they called the
name
of
that place Bochim :
and they
sacrificed
there unto
the LORD.
After
Joshua had dismissed
the people, the Israelites
went out
to take
possession
of
the land ,
each
to
his
own
inheritance
.
And
when
Joshua had let
the people go
, the children
of
Israel
went every
man
unto
his
inheritance
to possess
the land.
And the people served the LORD throughout
the days of Joshua and of the elders who
outlived him
, who had seen all the great works that
the LORD had
done
for Israel.
And the people served the LORD all
the days of Joshua ,
and all
the
days
of the elders that
outlived Joshua
, who had seen all the great works of
the LORD ,
that
he
did
for Israel.
And Joshua son of Nun, the servant of the LORD, died at
the
age
of
110
.
And Joshua the
son of Nun, the servant of the LORD, died ,
being
an
hundred
and
ten
years
old
.
They buried him in the land
of his inheritance, at
Timnath-heres
in the hill
country
of Ephraim, north of Mount
Gaash.
And
they buried him in the border
of his inheritance in
Timnathheres
, in the mount
of Ephraim, on
the
north side
of the
hill
Gaash.
After
that whole
generation had
also
been
gathered to
their fathers ,
another generation rose
up
who
did
not know
the LORD or
the works that
He had done for Israel.
And
also
all
that generation were
gathered unto
their fathers :
and
there
arose
another generation after
them,
which
knew
not the LORD ,
nor
yet
the works which
he had done for Israel.
And the Israelites
did evil in the sight of the LORD and served the
Baals.
And the children
of
Israel
did evil in the sight of the LORD ,
and served Baalim:
Thus
they forsook the LORD ,
the
God of their fathers, who
had
brought them out of the land of Egypt, and they
followed after
various
gods of the peoples
around
them .
They
bowed down
to
them and provoked the LORD to anger ,
And
they forsook the LORD God of their fathers, which
brought them out of the land of Egypt, and followed other
gods ,
of the gods
of
the
people
that
were
round
about
them ,
and
bowed themselves
unto
them ,
and provoked the LORD to anger .
for
they forsook Him
and served Baal and the
Ashtoreths
.
And
they forsook the
LORD,
and served Baal and Ashtaroth
.
Then
the anger of the LORD burned
against Israel, and He delivered them into the hands of those
who
plundered
them .
He sold them into the hands of their enemies all
around
, whom
they were
no
longer able
to
resist
.
And
the anger of the LORD was
hot
against Israel, and he delivered them into the hands of spoilers
that
spoiled
them ,
and
he sold them into the hands of their enemies round
about
, so
that
they could
not
any
longer stand
before
their
enemies
.
Wherever
Israel
marched
out, the hand of the LORD was against them to
bring
calamity
, just
as He
had sworn to
them .
So
they were greatly distressed.
Whithersoever
they
went
out, the hand of the LORD was against them for
evil
, as the
LORD
had said,
and
as
the
LORD
had
sworn unto
them :
and
they were greatly distressed.
Then
the LORD raised up judges, who
saved
them from
the hands
of those who
plundered
them.
Nevertheless
the LORD raised up judges, which
delivered
them out
of
the hand
of those that
spoiled
them.
Israel,
however,
did
not listen
to
their judges .
Instead
, they prostituted
themselves
with
other gods and bowed down
to
them .
They quickly
turned from
the way of
their fathers ,
who
had
walked in obedience
to
the LORD’s
commandments; they did not do
as
their
fathers
had
done
.
And
yet
they
would
not hearken
unto
their judges, but
they went
a
whoring
after
other gods ,
and bowed themselves
unto
them :
they turned quickly
out
of
the way which
their fathers walked in ,
obeying
the commandments of
the
LORD
; but
they did not so
.
Whenever
the LORD raised up a
judge
for
the
Israelites
, He
was with that
judge and saved
them from
the hands
of their enemies while
the judge was
still
alive;
for the LORD was
moved
to
pity
by
their groaning
under
those
who
oppressed them and afflicted
them.
And
when
the LORD raised them
up judges
, then
the
LORD
was with the
judge ,
and delivered
them out
of
the hand
of their enemies all
the days
of
the
judge :
for it
repented
the LORD because
of
their groanings
by
reason
of
them
that
oppressed them and vexed
them.
But
when the judge died
, the
Israelites
became
even
more corrupt
than their fathers, going
after
other gods to serve them and bow down to
them .
They would
not give
up
their evil
practices
and
stubborn ways
.
And
it
came
to
pass,
when the judge was
dead
, that
they
returned,
and
corrupted
themselves
more than their fathers, in
following
other gods to serve them ,
and to
bow down unto
them ;
they ceased
not from
their own
doings,
nor
from
their
stubborn way
.
So
the anger of the LORD burned
against Israel ,
and He said, “
Because this nation
has
transgressed the
covenant I laid
down
for
their fathers and has
not heeded
My voice ,
And
the anger of the LORD was
hot
against Israel ;
and he said, Because that
this people
hath
transgressed my
covenant which
I commanded
their fathers ,
and have
not hearkened
unto
my voice ;
I will no
longer
drive out before them any
of the nations Joshua left when he died .
I also
will not
henceforth
drive out any
from
before them of the nations which
Joshua left when he died :
In
this
way
I will
test
whether
Israel will keep the way of the LORD by
walking
in
it
as their fathers did. ”
That
through
them
I may
prove
Israel ,
whether
they
will keep the way of the LORD to
walk
therein,
as their fathers did keep
it,
or
not
.
That
is
why
the LORD had
left those nations in
place
and
had
not
driven
them out immediately
by
delivering
them into the hand of Joshua.
Therefore
the LORD left those nations ,
without
driving
them out hastily;
neither
delivered
he
them into the hand of Joshua.
