26 And they were disobedient and rebelled against You, and they cast Your law behind their backs, and Your prophets they killed, those who testified against them, so as to turn them back to You, and they did great blasphemies. 27 And You gave them into the hand of their enemies, and they brought distress to them. And in the time of their distress they cried to You, and You from the heavens heard, and according to Your abundant mercies You gave to them saviors, and they saved them from the hand of their enemies. 28 And after rest for them, again they did evil before You, and you left them to the hand of their enemies, and they ruled over them. And they returned and cried out to You, and You from the heavens heard, and You delivered them according to Your mercies many times. 29 And you testified against them to bring them back to Your instruction, and they still seethed and did not listen to Your commands. And Your just laws they sinned against, which if a man does them, he shall live by them; and they gave to be stubborn the shoulder, and their neck they hardened, and they would not listen.
