Judges 2:14-16

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹⁴ So the anger of the Lord was kindled against Israel, and He gave them into the power of plunderers who robbed them; and He sold them into the hands of their enemies round about, so that they could no longer stand before their foes.

¹⁵ Whenever they went out, the hand of the Lord was against them for evil as the Lord had said, and as the Lord had sworn to them; and they were bitterly distressed.^(A)

¹⁶ But the Lord raised up judges, who delivered them out of the hands of those who robbed them.
