Judges 2:20-22

Young's Literal Translation

²⁰ And the anger of Jehovah doth burn against Israel, and He saith, `Because that this nation have transgressed My covenant which I commanded their fathers, and have not hearkened to My voice --

²¹ I also continue not to dispossess any from before them of the nations which Joshua hath left when he dieth,

²² in order to try Israel by them, whether they are keeping the way of Jehovah, to go in it, as their fathers kept [it] or not.'
