16 And YHWH raised up judges, and they delivered them out of the hand of those plundering them. 17 Yet to their judges they would not listen, but they played the prostitute with other gods and bowed down to them. They turned quickly from the way in which their fathers had walked to listen to the commandments of YHWH; they did not do so. 18 And YHWH raised up for them judges, and YHWH was with the judge and delivered them out of the hand of their enemies all the days of the judge; for YHWH was moved to pity by their groaning, because of those who oppressed them and harassed them. 19 And it came to pass, when the judge was dead, that they turned back and acted corruptly more than their fathers, going after other gods to serve them and bow down to them. They did not cease from their deeds and from their stubborn way. Judges 2:16-19, Berean Literal Bible. Public domain.
