Judges 2:1-3

New American Standard Bible

Israel Rebuked

2 Now ^(A)the angel of the Lord came up from Gilgal to ^(B)Bochim. And he said, “^(C)I brought you up out of Egypt and led you into the land which I have sworn to your fathers; and I said, ‘^(D)I will never break My covenant with you, ² and as for you, ^(E)you shall not make a covenant with the inhabitants of this land; ^(F)you shall tear down their altars.’ But you have not ^[a]obeyed Me; what is this thing that you have done? ³ Therefore I also said, ‘^(G)I will not drive them out from you; but they will ^[b]become ^(H)like thorns in your sides, and their gods will be a snare to you.’”
