士师记 2
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
耶和華的使者在波金顯現
2 耶和華的使者從吉甲上到波金來,說:“我曾經把你們從埃及領上來,帶你們到我向你們列祖起誓應許的地方;我曾說過:‘我永不廢棄我與你們所立的約; 2 你們不可與這地的居民立約,要拆毀他們的祭壇。’你們竟沒有聽從我的話;你們作的是甚麼呢? 3 因此我又說:‘我必不把他們從你們面前趕走,他們要作你們的敵人(按照《馬索拉文本》,“敵人”作“邊旁”,意思不明確,或譯:“網羅”;現參照各古譯本翻譯),他們的神要作你們的網羅。’” 4 耶和華的使者對以色列眾人說這些話的時候,眾人就放聲大哭。 5 於是給那地方起名叫波金;他們在那裡向耶和華獻祭。
約書亞逝世
6 約書亞遣散了眾人,以色列人就各歸自己承受的地業,要佔有那地。 7 約書亞在世的時候,以及他去世以後,那些見過耶和華為以色列人所行的大事的眾長老還在的日子,眾人都事奉耶和華。 8 耶和華的僕人,嫩的兒子約書亞,在一百一十歲的時候就死了。 9 以色列人把他埋葬在他地業的境內,就是以法蓮山地,在迦實山北面的亭拿.希烈。 10 那一代的人都歸到他們的列祖那裡以後,有另一代的人興起來了;他們不認識耶和華,也不知道耶和華為以色列人所行的事。
以色列人違背 神的惡果
11 以色列人行了耶和華看為惡的事,去事奉眾巴力; 12 他們離棄了領他們出埃及的耶和華、他們列祖的 神,去跟從別的神,就是他們周圍各族的神,敬拜他們,惹耶和華發怒。 13 他們離棄了耶和華,去事奉巴力和亞斯他錄。 14 耶和華的怒氣向以色列人發作,就把他們交在搶掠的人手中,他們就搶掠他們;他又把他們完全交在他們四圍的仇敵手中,以致他們在仇敵面前再不能站立得住。 15 他們無論去哪裡,耶和華的手總是加害他們,好像耶和華說過的,又像耶和華對他們起誓過的;他們就非常困苦。 16 耶和華興起了士師,士師就拯救他們脫離搶掠他們的人的手。 17 但他們連士師也不聽從,竟與別的神行了姦淫,敬拜他們;他們迅速偏離了他們列祖所行、聽從耶和華命令的道路,他們沒有照樣行。 18 耶和華為他們興起士師的時候,耶和華就與那士師同在;那士師在世的日子,耶和華總是拯救他們脫離仇敵的手;因為他們在壓迫和苦害他們的人底下發出哀聲,耶和華就憐憫他們。 19 可是士師死了以後,他們就轉而行惡,比他們的列祖更厲害,去隨從別的神,事奉和敬拜他們,總不放棄他們的惡行和頑梗的行徑。 20 於是耶和華的怒氣向以色列人發作,說:“因為這國的人違背我吩咐他們列祖的約,不聽從我的話, 21 因此,約書亞死後仍剩下來的列國,我也不再從他們面前趕走, 22 為要藉著他們試驗以色列人,看他們肯不肯謹守遵行耶和華的道路,像他們的列祖一樣謹守。” 23 這樣,耶和華留下這些國的民,不迅速把他們趕走,也不把他們交在約書亞手裡。
士 師 記 2
Chinese Union Version (Traditional)
2 耶 和 華 的 使 者 從 吉 甲 上 到 波 金 , 對 以 色 列 人 說 : 我 使 你 們 從 埃 及 上 來 , 領 你 們 到 我 向 你 們 列 祖 起 誓 應 許 之 地 。 我 又 說 : 我 永 不 廢 棄 與 你 們 所 立 的 約 。
2 你 們 也 不 可 與 這 地 的 居 民 立 約 , 要 拆 毀 他 們 的 祭 壇 。 你 們 竟 沒 有 聽 從 我 的 話 ! 為 何 這 樣 行 呢 ?
3 因 此 我 又 說 : 我 必 不 將 他 們 從 你 們 面 前 趕 出 ; 他 們 必 作 你 們 肋 下 的 荊 棘 。 他 們 的 神 必 作 你 們 的 網 羅 。
4 耶 和 華 的 使 者 向 以 色 列 眾 人 說 這 話 的 時 候 , 百 姓 就 放 聲 而 哭 。
5 於 是 給 那 地 方 起 名 叫 波 金 ( 就 是 哭 的 意 思 ) 。 眾 人 在 那 裡 向 耶 和 華 獻 祭 。
6 從 前 約 書 亞 打 發 以 色 列 百 姓 去 的 時 候 , 他 們 各 歸 自 己 的 地 業 , 佔 據 地 土 。
7 約 書 亞 在 世 和 約 書 亞 死 後 , 那 些 見 耶 和 華 為 以 色 列 人 所 行 大 事 的 長 老 還 在 的 時 候 , 百 姓 都 事 奉 耶 和 華 。
8 耶 和 華 的 僕 人 、 嫩 的 兒 子 約 書 亞 , 正 一 百 一 十 歲 就 死 了 。
9 以 色 列 人 將 他 葬 在 他 地 業 的 境 內 , 就 是 在 以 法 蓮 山 地 的 亭 拿 希 烈 , 在 迦 實 山 的 北 邊 。
10 那 世 代 的 人 也 都 歸 了 自 己 的 列 祖 。 後 來 有 別 的 世 代 興 起 , 不 知 道 耶 和 華 , 也 不 知 道 耶 和 華 為 以 色 列 人 所 行 的 事 。
11 以 色 列 人 行 耶 和 華 眼 中 看 為 惡 的 事 , 去 事 奉 諸 巴 力 ,
12 離 棄 了 領 他 們 出 埃 及 地 的 耶 和 華 ─ 他 們 列 祖 的 神 , 去 叩 拜 別 神 , 就 是 四 圍 列 國 的 神 , 惹 耶 和 華 發 怒 ;
13 並 離 棄 耶 和 華 , 去 事 奉 巴 力 和 亞 斯 他 錄 。
14 耶 和 華 的 怒 氣 向 以 色 列 人 發 作 , 就 把 他 們 交 在 搶 奪 他 們 的 人 手 中 , 又 將 他 們 付 與 四 圍 仇 敵 的 手 中 , 甚 至 他 們 在 仇 敵 面 前 再 不 能 站 立 得 住 。
15 他 們 無 論 往 何 處 去 , 耶 和 華 都 以 災 禍 攻 擊 他 們 , 正 如 耶 和 華 所 說 的 話 , 又 如 耶 和 華 向 他 們 所 起 的 誓 ; 他 們 便 極 其 困 苦 。
16 耶 和 華 興 起 士 師 , 士 師 就 拯 救 他 們 脫 離 搶 奪 他 們 人 的 手 。
17 他 們 卻 不 聽 從 士 師 , 竟 隨 從 叩 拜 別 神 , 行 了 邪 淫 , 速 速 地 偏 離 他 們 列 祖 所 行 的 道 , 不 如 他 們 列 祖 順 從 耶 和 華 的 命 令 。
18 耶 和 華 為 他 們 興 起 士 師 , 就 與 那 士 師 同 在 。 士 師 在 世 的 一 切 日 子 , 耶 和 華 拯 救 他 們 脫 離 仇 敵 的 手 。 他 們 因 受 欺 壓 擾 害 , 就 哀 聲 歎 氣 , 所 以 耶 和 華 後 悔 了 。
19 及 至 士 師 死 後 , 他 們 就 轉 去 行 惡 , 比 他 們 列 祖 更 甚 , 去 事 奉 叩 拜 別 神 , 總 不 斷 絕 頑 梗 的 惡 行 。
20 於 是 耶 和 華 的 怒 氣 向 以 色 列 人 發 作 。 他 說 : 因 這 民 違 背 我 吩 咐 他 們 列 祖 所 守 的 約 , 不 聽 從 我 的 話 ,
21 所 以 約 書 亞 死 的 時 候 所 剩 下 的 各 族 , 我 必 不 再 從 他 們 面 前 趕 出 ,
22 為 要 藉 此 試 驗 以 色 列 人 , 看 他 們 肯 照 他 們 列 祖 謹 守 遵 行 我 的 道 不 肯 。
23 這 樣 耶 和 華 留 下 各 族 , 不 將 他 們 速 速 趕 出 , 也 沒 有 交 付 約 書 亞 的 手 。
Judges 2
New International Version
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)

Judges 2
King James Version
2 And an angel of the Lord came up from Gilgal to Bochim, and said, I made you to go up out of Egypt, and have brought you unto the land which I sware unto your fathers; and I said, I will never break my covenant with you.
2 And ye shall make no league with the inhabitants of this land; ye shall throw down their altars: but ye have not obeyed my voice: why have ye done this?
3 Wherefore I also said, I will not drive them out from before you; but they shall be as thorns in your sides, and their gods shall be a snare unto you.
4 And it came to pass, when the angel of the Lord spake these words unto all the children of Israel, that the people lifted up their voice, and wept.
5 And they called the name of that place Bochim: and they sacrificed there unto the Lord.
6 And when Joshua had let the people go, the children of Israel went every man unto his inheritance to possess the land.
7 And the people served the Lord all the days of Joshua, and all the days of the elders that outlived Joshua, who had seen all the great works of the Lord, that he did for Israel.
8 And Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of the Lord, died, being an hundred and ten years old.
9 And they buried him in the border of his inheritance in Timnathheres, in the mount of Ephraim, on the north side of the hill Gaash.
10 And also all that generation were gathered unto their fathers: and there arose another generation after them, which knew not the Lord, nor yet the works which he had done for Israel.
11 And the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the Lord, and served Baalim:
12 And they forsook the Lord God of their fathers, which brought them out of the land of Egypt, and followed other gods, of the gods of the people that were round about them, and bowed themselves unto them, and provoked the Lord to anger.
13 And they forsook the Lord, and served Baal and Ashtaroth.
14 And the anger of the Lord was hot against Israel, and he delivered them into the hands of spoilers that spoiled them, and he sold them into the hands of their enemies round about, so that they could not any longer stand before their enemies.
15 Whithersoever they went out, the hand of the Lord was against them for evil, as the Lord had said, and as the Lord had sworn unto them: and they were greatly distressed.
16 Nevertheless the Lord raised up judges, which delivered them out of the hand of those that spoiled them.
17 And yet they would not hearken unto their judges, but they went a whoring after other gods, and bowed themselves unto them: they turned quickly out of the way which their fathers walked in, obeying the commandments of the Lord; but they did not so.
18 And when the Lord raised them up judges, then the Lord was with the judge, and delivered them out of the hand of their enemies all the days of the judge: for it repented the Lord because of their groanings by reason of them that oppressed them and vexed them.
19 And it came to pass, when the judge was dead, that they returned, and corrupted themselves more than their fathers, in following other gods to serve them, and to bow down unto them; they ceased not from their own doings, nor from their stubborn way.
20 And the anger of the Lord was hot against Israel; and he said, Because that this people hath transgressed my covenant which I commanded their fathers, and have not hearkened unto my voice;
21 I also will not henceforth drive out any from before them of the nations which Joshua left when he died:
22 That through them I may prove Israel, whether they will keep the way of the Lord to walk therein, as their fathers did keep it, or not.
23 Therefore the Lord left those nations, without driving them out hastily; neither delivered he them into the hand of Joshua.
