Judges 2:3 in Context — Judges 2
1 Un envoyé de l’Éternel monta de Guilgal à Bokim, et dit: Je vous ai fait monter hors d’Égypte, et je vous ai amenés dans le pays que j’ai juré à vos pères de vous donner. J’ai dit: Jamais je ne romprai mon alliance avec vous;
2 et vous, vous ne traiterez point alliance avec les habitants de ce pays, vous renverserez leurs autels. Mais vous n’avez point obéi à ma voix. Pourquoi avez-vous fait cela?
3 J’ai dit alors: Je ne les chasserai point devant vous; mais ils seront à vos côtés, et leurs dieux vous seront un piège.
4 Lorsque l’envoyé de l’Éternel eut dit ces paroles à tous les enfants d’Israël, le peuple éleva la voix et pleura.
5 Ils donnèrent à ce lieu le nom de Bokim, et ils y offrirent des sacrifices à l’Éternel.
