Judges 2

KJV

1  And an angel4397 of the LORD3068 came up5927 from4480 Gilgal1537 to413 Bochim,1066 and said,559 I made you to go up5927 853 out of Egypt,4480 4714 and have brought935 you unto413 the land776 which834 I swore7650 unto your fathers;1 and I said,559 I will never3808 5769 break6565 my covenant1285 with854 you.

2  And ye859 shall make3772 no3808 league1285 with the inhabitants3427 of this2063 land;776 ye shall throw down5422 their altars:4196 but ye have not3808 obeyed8085 my voice:6963 why4100 have ye done6213 this?2063

3  Wherefore I also1571 said,559 I will not3808 drive them out1644 853 from before4480 6440 you; but they shall be1961 as thorns in your sides,6654 and their gods430 shall be1961 a snare4170 unto you.

4  And it came to pass,1961 when the angel4397 of the LORD3068 spoke1696 853 these428 words1697 unto413 all3605 the children1121 of Israel,3478 that the people5971 lifted up5375 853 their voice,6963 and wept.1058

5  And they called7121 the name8034 of that1931 place4725 Bochim:1066 and they sacrificed2076 there8033 unto the LORD.3068

6  And when Joshua3091 had let 853 the people5971 go,7971 the children1121 of Israel3478 went1980 every man376 unto his inheritance5159 to possess3423 853 the land.776

7  And the people5971 served5647 853 the LORD3068 all3605 the days3117 of Joshua,3091 and all3605 the days3117 of the elders2205 that834 outlived748 3117 310 Joshua,3091 who834 had seen7200 853 all3605 the great1419 works4639 of the LORD,3068 that834 he did6213 for Israel.3478

8  And Joshua3091 the son1121 of Nun,5126 the servant5650 of the LORD,3068 died,4191 being a hundred3967 and ten6235 years8141 old.1121

9  And they buried6912 him in the border1366 of his inheritance5159 in Timnath-heres,8556 in the mount2022 of Ephraim,669 on the north side4480 6828 of the hill2022 Gaash.1608

10  And also1571 all3605 that1931 generation1755 were gathered622 unto413 their fathers:1 and there arose6965 another312 generation1755 after310 them, which834 knew3045 not3808 853 the LORD,3068 nor yet1571 853 the works4639 which834 he had done6213 for Israel.3478

11  And the children1121 of Israel3478 did6213 853 evil7451 in the sight5869 of the LORD,3068 and served5647 853 Baalim:1168

12  And they forsook5800 853 the LORD3068 God430 of their fathers,1 which brought them out3318 853 of the land4480 776 of Egypt,4714 and followed1980 310 other312 gods,430 of the gods4480 430 of the people5971 that834 were round about5439 them, and bowed themselves7812 unto them, and provoked3707 853 the LORD3068 to anger.3707

13  And they forsook5800 853 the LORD,3068 and served5647 Baal1168 and Ashtaroth.6252

14  And the anger639 of the LORD3068 was hot2734 against Israel,3478 and he delivered5414 them into the hands3027 of spoilers8154 that spoiled8155 them, and he sold4376 them into the hands3027 of their enemies341 round about,4480 5439 so that they could3201 not3808 any longer5750 stand5975 before6440 their enemies.341

15  Whithersoever3605 834 they went out,3318 the hand3027 of the LORD3068 was1961 against them for evil,7451 as834 the LORD3068 had said,1696 and as834 the LORD3068 had sworn7650 unto them: and they were greatly3966 distressed.3334

16  Nevertheless the LORD3068 raised up6965 judges,8199 which delivered3467 them out of the hand4480 3027 of those that spoiled8154 them.

17  And yet1571 they would not3808 hearken8085 unto413 their judges,8199 but3588 they went a whoring2181 after310 other312 gods,430 and bowed themselves7812 unto them: they turned5493 quickly4118 out of4480 the way1870 which834 their fathers1 walked1980 in, obeying8085 the commandments4687 of the LORD;3068 but they did6213 not3808 so.3651

18  And when3588 the LORD3068 raised them up6965 judges,8199 then the LORD3068 was1961 with5973 the judge,8199 and delivered3467 them out of the hand4480 3027 of their enemies341 all3605 the days3117 of the judge:8199 for3588 it repented5162 the LORD3068 because of their groanings4480 5009 by reason of them4480 6440 that oppressed3905 them and vexed1766 them.

19  And it came to pass,1961 when the judge8199 was dead,4191 that they returned,7725 and corrupted7843 themselves more than their fathers,4480 1 in following1980 310 other312 gods430 to serve5647 them, and to bow down7812 unto them; they ceased5307 not3808 from their own doings,4480 4611 nor from their stubborn way.4480 1870 7186

20  And the anger639 of the LORD3068 was hot2734 against Israel;3478 and he said,559 Because3282 that834 this2088 people1471 hath transgressed5674 853 my covenant1285 which834 I commanded6680 853 their fathers,1 and have not3808 hearkened8085 unto my voice;6963

21  I589 also1571 will not3808 henceforth3254 drive out3423 any376 from before4480 6440 them of4480 the nations1471 which834 Joshua3091 left5800 when he died:4191

22  That4616 through them I may prove5254 853 Israel,3478 whether they1992 will keep8104 853 the way1870 of the LORD3068 to walk1980 therein, as834 their fathers1 did keep8104 it, or518 not.3808

23  Therefore the LORD3068 left5117 853 those428 nations,1471 without1115 driving them out3423 hastily;4118 neither3808 delivered5414 he them into the hand3027 of Joshua.3091

1 καὶ ἀνέβη ἄγγελος κυρίου ἀπὸ Γαλγαλ ἐπὶ τὸν Κλαυθμῶνα καὶ ἐπὶ Βαιθηλ καὶ ἐπὶ τὸν οἶκον Ισραηλ καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτούς τάδε λέγει κύριος ἀνεβίβασα ὑμᾶς ἐξ Αἰγύπτου καὶ εἰσήγαγον ὑμᾶς εἰς τὴν γῆν ἣν ὤμοσα τοῖς πατράσιν ὑμῶν καὶ εἶπα οὐ διασκεδάσω τὴν διαθήκην μου τὴν μεθ᾽ ὑμῶν εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα

2 καὶ ὑμεῖς οὐ διαθήσεσθε διαθήκην τοῖς ἐγκαθημένοις εἰς τὴν γῆν ταύτην οὐδὲ τοῖς θεοῖς αὐτῶν προσκυνήσετε ἀλλὰ τὰ γλυπτὰ αὐτῶν συντρίψετε καὶ τὰ θυσιαστήρια αὐτῶν καθελεῖτε καὶ οὐκ εἰσηκούσατε τῆς φωνῆς μου ὅτι ταῦτα ἐποιήσατε

3 κἀγὼ εἶπον οὐ μὴ ἐξαρῶ αὐτοὺς ἐκ προσώπου ὑμῶν καὶ ἔσονται ὑμῖν εἰς συνοχάς καὶ οἱ θεοὶ αὐτῶν ἔσονται ὑμῖν εἰς σκάνδαλον

4 καὶ ἐγένετο ὡς ἐλάλησεν ὁ ἄγγελος κυρίου τοὺς λόγους τούτους πρὸς πάντας υἱοὺς Ισραηλ καὶ ἐπῆραν ὁ λαὸς τὴν φωνὴν αὐτῶν καὶ ἔκλαυσαν

5 καὶ ἐπωνόμασαν τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ τόπου ἐκείνου Κλαυθμῶνες καὶ ἐθυσίασαν ἐκεῖ τῷ κυρίῳ

6 καὶ ἐξαπέστειλεν Ἰησοῦς τὸν λαόν καὶ ἦλθεν ἀνὴρ εἰς τὴν κληρονομίαν αὐτοῦ κατακληρονομῆσαι τὴν γῆν

7 καὶ ἐδούλευσεν ὁ λαὸς τῷ κυρίῳ πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας Ἰησοῦ καὶ πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας τῶν πρεσβυτέρων ὅσοι ἐμακροημέρευσαν μετὰ Ἰησοῦ ὅσοι ἔγνωσαν πᾶν τὸ ἔργον κυρίου τὸ μέγα ὃ ἐποίησεν ἐν τῷ Ισραηλ

8 καὶ ἐτελεύτησεν Ἰησοῦς υἱὸς Ναυη δοῦλος κυρίου υἱὸς ἑκατὸν δέκα ἐτῶν

9 καὶ ἔθαψαν αὐτὸν ἐν ὁρίῳ τῆς κληρονομίας αὐτοῦ ἐν Θαμναθαρες ἐν ὄρει Εφραιμ ἀπὸ βορρᾶ τοῦ ὄρους Γαας

10 καί γε πᾶσα ἡ γενεὰ ἐκείνη προσετέθησαν πρὸς τοὺς πατέρας αὐτῶν καὶ ἀνέστη γενεὰ ἑτέρα μετ᾽ αὐτούς οἳ οὐκ ἔγνωσαν τὸν κύριον καί γε τὸ ἔργον ὃ ἐποίησεν ἐν τῷ Ισραηλ

11 καὶ ἐποίησαν οἱ υἱοὶ Ισραηλ τὸ πονηρὸν ἐνώπιον κυρίου καὶ ἐλάτρευσαν τοῖς Βααλιμ

12 καὶ ἐγκατέλιπον τὸν κύριον τὸν θεὸν τῶν πατέρων αὐτῶν τὸν ἐξαγαγόντα αὐτοὺς ἐκ γῆς Αἰγύπτου καὶ ἐπορεύθησαν ὀπίσω θεῶν ἑτέρων ἀπὸ τῶν θεῶν τῶν ἐθνῶν τῶν περικύκλῳ αὐτῶν καὶ προσεκύνησαν αὐτοῖς καὶ παρώργισαν τὸν κύριον

13 καὶ ἐγκατέλιπον αὐτὸν καὶ ἐλάτρευσαν τῷ Βααλ καὶ ταῖς Ἀστάρταις

14 καὶ ὠργίσθη θυμῷ κύριος ἐν τῷ Ισραηλ καὶ παρέδωκεν αὐτοὺς εἰς χεῖρας προνομευόντων καὶ κατεπρονόμευσαν αὐτούς καὶ ἀπέδοτο αὐτοὺς ἐν χερσὶ τῶν ἐχθρῶν αὐτῶν κυκλόθεν καὶ οὐκ ἠδυνήθησαν ἔτι ἀντιστῆναι κατὰ πρόσωπον τῶν ἐχθρῶν αὐτῶν

15 ἐν πᾶσιν οἷς ἐξεπορεύοντο καὶ χεὶρ κυρίου ἦν ἐπ᾽ αὐτοὺς εἰς κακά καθὼς ἐλάλησεν κύριος καὶ καθὼς ὤμοσεν κύριος αὐτοῖς καὶ ἐξέθλιψεν αὐτοὺς σφόδρα

16 καὶ ἤγειρεν κύριος κριτάς καὶ ἔσωσεν αὐτοὺς κύριος ἐκ χειρὸς τῶν προνομευόντων αὐτούς

17 καί γε τῶν κριτῶν οὐχ ὑπήκουσαν ὅτι ἐξεπόρνευσαν ὀπίσω θεῶν ἑτέρων καὶ προσεκύνησαν αὐτοῖς καὶ ἐξέκλιναν ταχὺ ἐκ τῆς ὁδοῦ ἧς ἐπορεύθησαν οἱ πατέρες αὐτῶν τοῦ εἰσακούειν τῶν λόγων κυρίου οὐκ ἐποίησαν οὕτως

18 καὶ ὅτι ἤγειρεν κύριος κριτὰς αὐτοῖς καὶ ἦν κύριος μετὰ τοῦ κριτοῦ καὶ ἔσωσεν αὐτοὺς ἐκ χειρὸς ἐχθρῶν αὐτῶν πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας τοῦ κριτοῦ ὅτι παρεκλήθη κύριος ἀπὸ τοῦ στεναγμοῦ αὐτῶν ἀπὸ προσώπου τῶν πολιορκούντων αὐτοὺς καὶ ἐκθλιβόντων αὐτούς

19 καὶ ἐγένετο ὡς ἀπέθνῃσκεν ὁ κριτής καὶ ἀπέστρεψαν καὶ πάλιν διέφθειραν ὑπὲρ τοὺς πατέρας αὐτῶν πορεύεσθαι ὀπίσω θεῶν ἑτέρων λατρεύειν αὐτοῖς καὶ προσκυνεῖν αὐτοῖς οὐκ ἀπέρριψαν τὰ ἐπιτηδεύματα αὐτῶν καὶ τὰς ὁδοὺς αὐτῶν τὰς σκληράς

20 καὶ ὠργίσθη θυμῷ κύριος ἐν τῷ Ισραηλ καὶ εἶπεν ἀνθ᾽ ὧν ὅσα ἐγκατέλιπον τὸ ἔθνος τοῦτο τὴν διαθήκην μου ἣν ἐνετειλάμην τοῖς πατράσιν αὐτῶν καὶ οὐκ εἰσήκουσαν τῆς φωνῆς μου

21 καί γε ἐγὼ οὐ προσθήσω τοῦ ἐξᾶραι ἄνδρα ἐκ προσώπου αὐτῶν ἀπὸ τῶν ἐθνῶν ὧν κατέλιπεν Ἰησοῦς υἱὸς Ναυη ἐν τῇ γῇ καὶ ἀφῆκεν

22 τοῦ πειράσαι ἐν αὐτοῖς τὸν Ισραηλ εἰ φυλάσσονται τὴν ὁδὸν κυρίου πορεύεσθαι ἐν αὐτῇ ὃν τρόπον ἐφύλαξαν οἱ πατέρες αὐτῶν ἢ οὔ

23 καὶ ἀφῆκεν κύριος τὰ ἔθνη ταῦτα τοῦ μὴ ἐξᾶραι αὐτὰ τὸ τάχος καὶ οὐ παρέδωκεν αὐτὰ ἐν χειρὶ Ἰησοῦ

Vul

1 Ascenditque angelus Domini de Galgalis ad Locum flentium, et ait: Eduxi vos de Ægypto, et introduxi in terram, pro qua juravi patribus vestris: et pollicitus sum ut non facerem irritum pactum meum vobiscum in sempiternum,

2 ita dumtaxat ut non feriretis fœdus cum habitatoribus terræ hujus, sed aras eorum subverteretis: et noluistis audire vocem meam: cur hoc fecistis?

3 Quam ob rem nolui delere eos a facie vestra: ut habeatis hostes, et dii eorum sint vobis in ruinam.

4 Cumque loqueretur angelus Domini hæc verba ad omnes filios Israël, elevaverunt ipsi vocem suam, et fleverunt.

5 Et vocatum est nomen loci illius, Locus flentium, sive lacrimarum: immolaveruntque ibi hostias Domini.

6 Dimisit ergo Josue populum, et abierunt filii Israël unusquisque in possessionem suam, ut obtinerent eam:

7 servieruntque Domino cunctis diebus ejus, et seniorum, qui longo post eum vixerunt tempore, et noverant omnia opera Domini quæ fecerat cum Israël.

8 Mortuus est autem Josue filius Nun, famulus Domini, centum et decem annorum,

9 et sepelierunt eum in finibus possessionis suæ in Thamnathsare in monte Ephraim, a septentrionali plaga montis Gaas.

10 Omnisque illa generatio congregata est ad patres suos: et surrexerunt alii, qui non noverant Dominum, et opera quæ fecerat cum Israël.

11 Feceruntque filii Israël malum in conspectu Domini, et servierunt Baalim.

12 Ac dimiserunt Dominum Deum patrum suorum, qui eduxerat eos de terra Ægypti, et secuti sunt deos alienos, deosque populorum, qui habitabant in circuitu eorum, et adoraverunt eos: et ad iracundiam concitaverunt Dominum,

13 dimittentes eum, et servientes Baal et Astaroth.

14 Iratusque Dominus contra Israël, tradidit eos in manus diripientium: qui ceperunt eos, et vendiderunt hostibus qui habitabant per gyrum: nec potuerunt resistere adversariis suis,

15 sed quocumque pergere voluissent, manus Domini super eos erat, sicut locutus est, et juravit eis, et vehementer afflicti sunt.

16 Suscitavitque Dominus judices, qui liberarent eos de vastantium manibus: sed nec eos audire voluerunt,

17 fornicantes cum diis alienis, et adorantes eos. Cito deseruerunt viam, per quam ingressi fuerant patres eorum: et audientes mandata Domini, omnia fecere contraria.

18 Cumque Dominus judices suscitaret, in diebus eorum flectebatur misericordia, et audiebat afflictorum gemitus, et liberabat eos de cæde vastantium.

19 Postquam autem mortuus esset judex, revertebantur, et multo faciebant pejora quam fecerant patres eorum, sequentes deos alienos, servientes eis, et adorantes illos. Non dimiserunt adinventiones suas, et viam durissimam per quam ambulare consueverunt.

20 Iratusque est furor Domini in Israël, et ait: Quia irritum fecit gens ista pactum meum, quod pepigeram cum patribus eorum, et vocem meam audire contempsit:

21 et ego non delebo gentes, quas dimisit Josue, et mortuus est:

22 ut in ipsis experiar Israël, utrum custodiant viam Domini, et ambulent in ea, sicut custodierunt patres eorum, an non.

23 Dimisit ergo Dominus omnes nationes has, et cito subvertere noluit, nec tradidit in manus Josue.
