And the house of Joseph go up -- even they -- to Beth-El, and Jehovah `is' with them;

וַֽיהוָ֖ה (יהוָ֖ה) Yah.weh “Yahweh”

And a messenger of Jehovah goeth up from Gilgal unto Bochim,

יְהוָ֛ה Yah.weh “Yahweh”

And it cometh to pass, when the messenger of Jehovah speaketh these words unto all the sons of Israel, that the people lift up their voice and weep,

יְהוָה֙ Yah.weh “Yahweh”

and they call the name of that place Bochim, and sacrifice there to Jehovah.

לַֽיהוָֽה׃ (יהוָֽה) Yah.weh “Yahweh”

and the people serve Jehovah all the days of Joshua, and all the days of the elders who prolonged days after Joshua, who saw all the great work of Jehovah which He did to Israel.

יְהוָ֔ה Yah.weh “Yahweh”יְהוָה֙ Yah.weh “Yahweh”

And Joshua son of Nun, servant of Jehovah, dieth, a son of a hundred and ten years,

יְהוָ֑ה Yah.weh “Yahweh”

and also all that generation have been gathered unto their fathers, and another generation riseth after them who have not known Jehovah, and even the work which He hath done to Israel.

יְהוָ֔ה Yah.weh “Yahweh”

And the sons of Israel do the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, and serve the Baalim,

יְהוָ֑ה Yah.weh “Yahweh”

and forsake Jehovah, God of their fathers, who bringeth them out from the land of Egypt, and go after other gods (of the gods of the peoples who `are' round about them), and bow themselves to them, and provoke Jehovah,

יְהוָ֣ה׀ Yah.weh “Yahweh”יְהוָֽה׃ Yah.weh “Yahweh”

yea, they forsake Jehovah, and do service to Baal and to Ashtaroth.

יְהוָ֑ה Yah.weh “Yahweh”

And the anger of Jehovah burneth against Israel, and He giveth them into the hand of spoilers, and they spoil them, and He selleth them into the hand of their enemies round about, and they have not been able any more to stand before their enemies;

יְהוָה֙ Yah.weh “Yahweh”

in every `place' where they have gone out, the hand of Jehovah hath been against them for evil, as Jehovah hath spoken, and as Jehovah hath sworn to them, and they are distressed -- greatly.

יְהוָה֙ Yah.weh “Yahweh”יְהוָ֔ה Yah.weh “Yahweh”יְהוָ֖ה Yah.weh “Yahweh”

And Jehovah raiseth up judges, and they save them from the hand of their spoilers;

יְהוָ֖ה Yah.weh “Yahweh”

and also unto their judges they have not hearkened, but have gone a-whoring after other gods, and bow themselves to them; they have turned aside `with' haste out of the way `in' which their fathers walked to obey the commands of Jehovah -- they have not done so.

יְהוָ֖ה Yah.weh “Yahweh”

And when Jehovah raised up to them judges -- then was Jehovah with the judge, and saved them out of the hand of their enemies all the days of the judge; for it repenteth Jehovah, because of their groaning from the presence of their oppressors, and of those thrusting them away.

יְהוָ֥ה׀ Yah.weh “Yahweh”יְהוָה֙ Yah.weh “Yahweh”יְהוָה֙ Yah.weh “Yahweh”

And the anger of Jehovah doth burn against Israel, and He saith, `Because that this nation have transgressed My covenant which I commanded their fathers, and have not hearkened to My voice --

יְהוָ֖ה Yah.weh “Yahweh”

in order to try Israel by them, whether they are keeping the way of Jehovah, to go in it, as their fathers kept `it' or not.'

יְהוָ֜ה Yah.weh “Yahweh”

And Jehovah leaveth these nations, so as not to dispossess them hastily, and did not give them into the hand of Joshua.

יְהוָה֙ Yah.weh “Yahweh”

And these `are' the nations which Jehovah left, to try Israel by them, all who have not known all the wars of Canaan;

יְהוָ֔ה Yah.weh “Yahweh”

and they are to prove Israel by them, to know whether they obey the commands of Jehovah that He commanded their fathers by the hand of Moses.

יְהוָ֔ה Yah.weh “Yahweh”

and the sons of Israel do the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, and forget Jehovah their God, and serve the Baalim and the shrines.

יְהוָ֔ה Yah.weh “Yahweh”יְהוָ֣ה Yah.weh “Yahweh”

And the anger of Jehovah burneth against Israel, and He selleth them into the hand of Chushan-Rishathaim king of Aram-Naharaim, and the sons of Israel serve Chushan-Rishathaim eight years;

יְהוָה֙ Yah.weh “Yahweh”

and the sons of Israel cry unto Jehovah, and Jehovah raiseth a saviour to the sons of Israel, and he saveth them -- Othniel son of Kenaz, Caleb's younger brother;

יְהוָ֔ה Yah.weh “Yahweh”יְהוָ֥ה Yah.weh “Yahweh”

and the Spirit of Jehovah is upon him, and he judgeth Israel, and goeth out to battle, and Jehovah giveth unto his hand Chushan-Rishathaim king of Aram, and strong is his hand against Chushan-Rishathaim;

יְהוָה֮ Yah.weh “Yahweh”יְהוָה֙ Yah.weh “Yahweh”

and the sons of Israel add to do the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah; and Jehovah strengtheneth Eglon king of Moab against Israel, because that they have done the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah;

יְהוָ֑ה Yah.weh “Yahweh”יְהוָ֜ה Yah.weh “Yahweh”יְהוָֽה׃ Yah.weh “Yahweh”
