Judges 2:20-22

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²⁰ And the wrath of the Lord was kindled against Israel, and he said: Behold this nation hath made void my covenant, which I had made with their fathers, and hath despised to hearken to my voice:

²¹ I also will not destroy the nations which Josue left, when he died:

²² That through them I may try Israel, whether they will keep the way of the Lord, and walk in it, as their fathers kept it, or not.
