Judges 2:17 in Context — Judges 2
15 Por de onde quer que saíssem, a mão do SENHOR era contra eles para o mal, como o SENHOR havia dito, e como o SENHOR lhes havia jurado; assim estiveram em grande aflição.
16 Mas o SENHOR suscitou juízes que os livrassem da mão dos que os despojavam.
17 Mas também não ouviram aos seus juízes; em vez disso, prostituíram-se seguindo outros deuses, aos quais adoraram; desviaram-se depressa do caminho em que seus pais andaram, obedecendo aos mandamentos do SENHOR; porém eles não fizeram assim.
18 E quando o SENHOR lhes suscitava juízes, o SENHOR era com o juiz, e os livrava da mão dos inimigos todo aquele tempo daquele juiz, porque o SENHOR se arrependia pelo gemideles, por causa dos que os oprimiam e afligiam.
19 Mas acontecia que, quando o juiz morria, eles se voltavam para trás, e se corrompiam mais que seus pais, seguindo outros deuses para os adorarem e se inclinarem diante deles; e nada cessavam de suas obras, nem de seu teimoso caminho.
