8 Then the anger of the LORD {YHWH} burned against Israel (he wrestles with God), and He sold them into the hand of Cushan-rishathaim (twice-wicked Cushan) king of Aram-naharaim (Aram of the two rivers), and the Israelites served him eight years.

9 But when the Israelites (God prevails) cried out to the LORD {YHWH}, He raised up Othniel (lion of God) son of Caleb’s (dog) younger brother Kenaz (hunter) as a deliverer to save them.

10 The Spirit of the LORD {Ruach YHWH} came upon him, and he became Israel’s (he wrestles with God) judge and went out to war. And the LORD delivered Cushan-rishathaim (twice-wicked Cushan) king of Aram (exalted) into the hand of Othniel, who prevailed against him.
