Judges 2:12-14

International Standard Version

¹² They abandoned the Lord God of their ancestors, who had brought them out of the land of Egypt. They followed other gods from among the gods of the peoples who surrounded them. They bowed down in worship of them, and by doing so angered the Lord. ¹³ As a result, they abandoned the Lord by serving both Baal^[a] and Ashtaroth.^{[b] 14} So in his burning anger against Israel, the Lord gave them into the domination of marauders who plundered them. The enemies who surrounded the Israelis^[c] controlled them, and they were no longer able to withstand their adversaries.
