Nagpunta sa Boquim ang Anghel ni Yahweh
2 Mula sa Gilgal, nagpunta sa Boquim ang anghel ni Yahweh. Sinabi niya sa mga Israelita, “Inilabas ko kayo sa Egipto at dinala sa lupain na aking ipinangako sa inyong mga ninuno. Sinabi ko noon na hindi ako sisira sa ating kasunduan. 2 Sinabi(A) ko ring huwag kayong gagawa ng kasunduan sa mga tagaroon, sa halip ay gibain ninyo ang kanilang mga altar. Ngunit ano ang inyong ginawa? Hindi ninyo ako sinunod! 3 Kaya ngayon, hindi ko sila paaalisin sa lupaing pupuntahan ninyo. Magiging tinik sila sa inyong landas at ang mga diyus-diyosan nila ay magiging mabigat na pagsubok sa inyo.” 4 Matapos sabihin ito ng anghel ni Yahweh, nag-iyakan ang mga Israelita. 5 Kaya, tinawag nilang Boquim[a] ang lugar na iyon, at naghandog sila roon kay Yahweh.
Ang Pagkamatay ni Josue
6-10 Pinalakad(B) na ni Josue ang mga Israelita at kanila ngang tinirhan ang mga lupaing nakatalaga para sa kanila. Si Josue ay namatay sa edad na 110 taon at inilibing siya sa Timnat-heres, isang lugar na sakop ng kanyang lupain sa kaburulan ng Efraim, sa gawing hilaga ng Bundok Gaas. Namatay rin ang buong salinlahing kasabayan ni Josue. Naglingkod nang tapat kay Yahweh ang mga Israelita habang nabubuhay si Josue at ang mga pinunong nakasaksi sa mga kahanga-hangang bagay na ginawa ni Yahweh para sa Israel. Subalit ang sumunod na salinlahi ay nakalimot kay Yahweh at sa lahat ng ginawa niya para sa Israel.
Tumigil ang Israel sa Paglilingkod kay Yahweh
11 Ang mga Israelita ay gumawa ng kasamaan laban kay Yahweh at sumamba sila sa mga Baal. 12 Tinalikuran nila si Yahweh, ang Diyos ng kanilang mga ninuno, na nagligtas sa kanila sa Egipto. Naglingkod sila at sumamba sa mga diyus-diyosan ng mga bayan sa kanilang paligid. Kaya nagalit sa kanila si Yahweh. 13 Itinakwil nila si Yahweh at naglingkod sa mga Baal at kay Astarot. 14 Dahil dito, nagalit si Yahweh sa Israel at sila'y hinayaan niyang matalo ng kaaway at samsaman ng ari-arian. 15 Tuwing makikipagdigma sila, hindi na sila tinutulungan ni Yahweh tulad ng kanyang babala. Kaya't wala silang kapanatagan.
16 Dahil dito, ang Israel ay binigyan ni Yahweh ng mga hukom na siyang magliligtas sa kanila sa kamay ng mga mananakop. 17 Ngunit hindi rin nila sinunod ang mga hukom na ito. Tinalikuran ng mga Israelita si Yahweh. Ang katapatan ng kanilang mga ninuno kay Yahweh ay hindi nila pinamarisan. 18 Lahat naman ng hukom na isinugo ni Yahweh ay pinatnubayan niya at iniligtas niya ang Israel sa mga kaaway habang nabubuhay ang hukom. Kinaawaan sila ni Yahweh dahil sa kanilang mga daing bunga ng hirap na dinaranas nila. 19 Ngunit pagkamatay ng hukom, muli na namang sumasamba sa mga diyus-diyosan ang mga Israelita. Higit pa sa kasamaan ng kanilang mga ninuno ang kanilang ginagawa; hindi nila maiwan ang kanilang masasamang gawain at katigasan ng ulo. 20 Kaya, lalong nagalit si Yahweh sa kanila. Sinabi niya, “Sumira ang mga Israelita sa kasunduang ibinigay ko sa kanilang mga ninuno. Dahil sa pagsuway nila sa akin, 21 hindi ko na palalayasin ang natitira pang Cananeo sa lupaing iniwan sa kanila ni Josue nang siya'y namatay. 22 Sa pamamagitan ng mga bansang ito, masusubok ko kung ang Israel ay susunod sa aking mga utos, tulad ng kanilang mga ninuno.” 23 Kaya, hindi agad pinaalis ni Yahweh ang mga tao sa mga lupaing hindi nasakop ng mga Israelita noong buháy pa si Josue.

The Angel of the Lord at Bokim
2 The angel of the Lord(A) went up from Gilgal(B) to Bokim(C) and said, “I brought you up out of Egypt(D) and led you into the land I swore to give to your ancestors.(E) I said, ‘I will never break my covenant with you,(F) 2 and you shall not make a covenant with the people of this land,(G) but you shall break down their altars.(H)’ Yet you have disobeyed(I) me. Why have you done this? 3 And I have also said, ‘I will not drive them out before you;(J) they will become traps(K) for you, and their gods will become snares(L) to you.’”
4 When the angel of the Lord had spoken these things to all the Israelites, the people wept aloud,(M) 5 and they called that place Bokim.[a](N) There they offered sacrifices to the Lord.
Disobedience and Defeat(O)
6 After Joshua had dismissed the Israelites, they went to take possession of the land, each to their own inheritance. 7 The people served the Lord throughout the lifetime of Joshua and of the elders who outlived him and who had seen all the great things the Lord had done for Israel.(P)
8 Joshua son of Nun,(Q) the servant of the Lord, died at the age of a hundred and ten. 9 And they buried him in the land of his inheritance, at Timnath Heres[b](R) in the hill country of Ephraim, north of Mount Gaash.
10 After that whole generation had been gathered to their ancestors, another generation grew up who knew neither the Lord nor what he had done for Israel.(S) 11 Then the Israelites did evil(T) in the eyes of the Lord(U) and served the Baals.(V) 12 They forsook the Lord, the God of their ancestors, who had brought them out of Egypt. They followed and worshiped various gods(W) of the peoples around them.(X) They aroused(Y) the Lord’s anger(Z) 13 because they forsook(AA) him and served Baal and the Ashtoreths.(AB) 14 In his anger(AC) against Israel the Lord gave them into the hands(AD) of raiders who plundered(AE) them. He sold them(AF) into the hands of their enemies all around, whom they were no longer able to resist.(AG) 15 Whenever Israel went out to fight, the hand of the Lord was against them(AH) to defeat them, just as he had sworn to them. They were in great distress.(AI)
16 Then the Lord raised up judges,[c](AJ) who saved(AK) them out of the hands of these raiders. 17 Yet they would not listen to their judges but prostituted(AL) themselves to other gods(AM) and worshiped them.(AN) They quickly turned(AO) from the ways of their ancestors, who had been obedient to the Lord’s commands.(AP) 18 Whenever the Lord raised up a judge for them, he was with the judge and saved(AQ) them out of the hands of their enemies as long as the judge lived; for the Lord relented(AR) because of their groaning(AS) under those who oppressed and afflicted(AT) them. 19 But when the judge died, the people returned to ways even more corrupt(AU) than those of their ancestors,(AV) following other gods and serving and worshiping them.(AW) They refused to give up their evil practices and stubborn(AX) ways.
20 Therefore the Lord was very angry(AY) with Israel and said, “Because this nation has violated the covenant(AZ) I ordained for their ancestors and has not listened to me, 21 I will no longer drive out(BA) before them any of the nations Joshua left when he died. 22 I will use them to test(BB) Israel and see whether they will keep the way of the Lord and walk in it as their ancestors did.” 23 The Lord had allowed those nations to remain; he did not drive them out at once by giving them into the hands of Joshua.(BC)
