Judges 2:12 in Context — Judges 2

10 Toute cette génération fut recueillie auprès de ses pères, et il s’éleva après elle une autre génération, qui ne connaissait point l’Éternel, ni ce qu’il avait fait en faveur d’Israël.

11 Les enfants d’Israël firent alors ce qui déplaît à l’Éternel, et ils servirent les Baals.

12 Ils abandonnèrent l’Éternel, le Dieu de leurs pères, qui les avait fait sortir du pays d’Égypte, et ils allèrent après d’autres dieux d’entre les dieux des peuples qui les entouraient; ils se prosternèrent devant eux, et ils irritèrent l’Éternel.

13 Ils abandonnèrent l’Éternel, et ils servirent Baal et les Astartés.

14 La colère de l’Éternel s’enflamma contre Israël. Il les livra entre les mains de pillards qui les pillèrent, il les vendit entre les mains de leurs ennemis d’alentour, et ils ne purent plus résister à leurs ennemis.
