Jueces 2
Textbibel von Kautzsch und Weizsäcker
1Und der Engel Jahwes zog aus dem Gilgal hinauf nach Bochim.
2ihr aber dürft mit den Bewohnern dieses Landes kein friedliches Abkommen treffen, sondern müßt ihre Altäre zerstören. Aber ihr habt meinem Befehle nicht gehorcht - was habt ihr gethan!
3Nun sage ich euch: Ich werde sie nicht vor euch vertreiben, damit sie euch zu Stacheln in euren Seiten und ihre Götter für euch zum Fallstrick werden.
4Während aber der Engel Jahwes diese Worte zu allen Israeliten redete, fing das Volk laut zu weinen an.
5Daher heißt jene Örtlichkeit Bochim. Und sie opferten dort Jahwe.
6Als nun Josua das Volk entlassen hatte, da machten sich die Israeliten auf den Weg, um das Land in Besitz zu nehmen - ein jeder nach seinem Erbbesitz.
7Und das Volk diente Jahwe, so lange Josua lebte und die Vornehmen, die Josua überlebten, die alle die großen Thaten Jahwes gesehen hatten, die er für Israel that.
8Da starb Josua, der Sohn Nuns, der Knecht Jahwes, im Alter von 110 Jahren.
9Und man begrub ihn im Bereiche seines Erbbesitzes, in Thimnath Heres auf dem Gebirge Ephraim, nördlich vom Berge Gaas.
10Dazu wurde jenes ganze Geschlecht zu seinen Vätern versammelt, und es kam nach ihnen ein anderes Geschlecht auf, Leute, die Jahwe nicht kannten noch die Thaten, die er für Israel gethan hatte.
11Und die Israeliten thaten, was Jahwe mißfiel, und verehrten die Baale
12und verließen Jahwe, den Gott ihrer Väter, der sie aus Ägypten weggeführt hatte, und liefen andern Göttern nach, solchen aus den Göttern der Völker, die rings um sie her wohnten, und warfen sich vor ihnen nieder und reizten damit Jahwe.
13Als sie aber Jahwe verließen und den Baal und die Astarten verehrten,
14da entbrannte der Zorn Jahwes über Israel und er gab sie Plünderern preis, die mußten sie plündern, und verkaufte sie in die Gewalt ihrer Feinde ringsum, so daß sie vor ihren Feinden nicht mehr standzuhalten vermochten.
15Wohin sie immer zogen, war die Hand Jahwes wider sie zu ihrem Unheil, wie Jahwe gedroht und wie Jahwe ihnen zugeschworen hatte. So brachte er sie in große Not.
16Aber Jahwe ließ Richter erstehen; die erretteten sie aus der Gewalt ihrer Plünderer.
17Aber auch ihren Richtern gehorchten sie nicht, sondern trieben Abgötterei mit fremden Göttern und warfen sich vor ihnen nieder. Sie waren schnell von dem Weg abgewichen, den ihre Väter gewandelt waren, indem sie den Geboten Jahwes gehorchten: sie handelten nicht so.
18Wenn ihnen nun Jahwe Richter erstehen ließ, so war Jahwe mit dem Richter und errettete sie während der ganzen Lebenszeit des Richters aus der Gewalt ihrer Feinde. Denn Jahwe fühlte Mitleid infolge ihres Wehklagens über ihre Bedränger und Bedrücker.
19Wenn aber der Richter starb, so trieben sie es aufs neue schlimmer als ihre Väter, indem sie andern Göttern nachfolgten, um sie zu verehren und sich vor ihnen niederzuwerfen. Sie gaben ihr Thun und ihren hartnäckigen Wandel nicht auf.
20Da entbrannte der Zorn Jahwes über Israel und er sprach: Darum weil dieses Volk meine Bundesordnung, die ich ihren Vätern auferlegte, übertreten und meinem Befehle nicht gehorcht hat,
21so will auch ich ferner keinen einzigen mehr von den Völkern, die Josua bei seinem Tode übrig gelassen hat, vor ihnen vertreiben,
22um Israel durch sie auf die Probe zu stellen, ob sie auf Jahwes Weg achten, um auf ihm zu wandeln, wie ihre Väter darauf geachtet haben, oder nicht.
23So ließ Jahwe jene Völker da, ohne sie rasch zu vertreiben, und gab sie nicht in Josuas Gewalt.
Reina-Valera 1909
1Y El ángel de Jehová subió de Gilgal á Bochîm, y dijo: Yo os saqué de Egipto, y os introduje en la tierra de la cual había jurado á vuestros padres; y dije: No invalidaré jamás mi pacto con vosotros;
2Con tal que vosotros no hagáis alianza con los moradores de aquesta tierra, cuyos altares habéis de derribar: mas vosotros no habéis atendido á mi voz: ¿por qué habéis hecho esto?
3Por tanto yo también dije: No los echaré de delante de vosotros, sino que os serán por azote para vuestros costados, y sus dioses por tropiezo.
4Y como el ángel de Jehová habló estas palabras á todos los hijos de Israel, el pueblo lloró en alta voz.
5Y llamaron por nombre aquel lugar Bochîm: y sacrificaron allí á Jehová.
6Porque ya Josué había despedido al pueblo, y los hijos de Israel se habían ido cada uno á su heredad para poseerla.
7Y el pueblo había servido á Jehová todo el tiempo de Josué, y todo el tiempo de los ancianos que vivieron largos días después de Josué, los cuales habían visto todas las grandes obras de Jehová, que él había hecho por Israel.
8Y murió Josué hijo de Nun, siervo de Jehová, siendo de ciento y diez años.
9Y enterráronlo en el término de su heredad en Timnath-sera, en el monte de Ephraim, al norte del monte de Gaas.
10Y toda aquella generación fué también recogida con sus padres. Y levantóse después de ellos otra generación, que no conocían á Jehová, ni la obra que él había hecho por Israel.
11Y los hijos de Israel hicieron lo malo en ojos de Jehová, y sirvieron á los Baales:
12Y dejaron á Jehová el Dios de sus padres, que los había sacado de la tierra de Egipto, y fuéronse tras otros dioses, los dioses de los pueblos que estaban en sus alrededores, á los cuales adoraron; y provocaron á ira á Jehová.
13Y dejaron á Jehová, y adoraron á Baal y á Astaroth.
14Y el furor de Jehová se encendió contra Israel, el cual los entregó en manos de robadores que los despojaron, y los vendió en manos de sus enemigos de alrededor: y no pudieron parar más delante de sus enemigos.
15Por donde quiera que salían, la mano de Jehová era contra ellos para mal, como Jehová había dicho, y como Jehová se lo había jurado; así los afligió en gran manera.
16Mas Jehová suscitó jueces que los librasen de mano de los que los despojaban.
17Y tampoco oyeron á sus jueces, sino que fornicaron tras dioses ajenos, á los cuales adoraron: apartáronse bien presto del camino en que anduvieron sus padres obedeciendo á los mandamientos de Jehová; mas ellos no hicieron así.
18Y cuando Jehová les suscitaba jueces, Jehová era con el juez, y librábalos de mano de los enemigos todo el tiempo de aquel juez: porque Jehová se arrepentía por sus gemidos á causa de los que los oprimían y afligían.
19Mas en muriendo el juez, ellos se tornaban, y se corrompían más que sus padres, siguiendo dioses ajenos para servirles, é inclinándose delante de ellos; y nada disminuían de sus obras, ni de su duro camino.
20Y la ira de Jehová se encendió contra Israel, y dijo: Pues que esta gente traspasa mi pacto que ordené á sus padres, y no obedecen mi voz,
21Tampoco yo echaré más de delante de ellos á ninguna de aquestas gentes que dejó Josué cuando murió;
22Para que por ellas probara yo á Israel, si guardarían ellos el camino de Jehová andando por él, como sus padres lo guardaron, ó no.
23Por esto dejó Jehová aquellas gentes, y no las desarraigó luego, ni las entregó en mano de Josué.
King James Version
1And 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.
2And 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?
3Wherefore 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.
4And 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.
5And they called the name of that place Bochim: and they sacrificed there unto the LORD.
6And when Joshua had let the people go, the children of Israel went every man unto his inheritance to possess the land.
7And 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.
8And Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of the LORD, died, being an hundred and ten years old.
9And they buried him in the border of his inheritance in Timnath-heres, in the mount of Ephraim, on the north side of the hill Gaash.
10And 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.
11And the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the LORD, and served Baalim:
12And 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.
13And they forsook the LORD, and served Baal and Ashtaroth.
14And 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.
15Whithersoever 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.
16Nevertheless the LORD raised up judges, which delivered them out of the hand of those that spoiled them.
17And 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.
18And 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.
19And 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.
20And 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;
21I also will not henceforth drive out any from before them of the nations which Joshua left when he died:
22That 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.
23Therefore the LORD left those nations, without driving them out hastily; neither delivered he them into the hand of Joshua.
World English Bible
1The LORD’s angel came up from Gilgal to Bochim. He said, “I brought you out of Egypt, and have brought you to the land which I swore to give your fathers. I said, ‘I will never break my covenant with you.
2You shall make no covenant with the inhabitants of this land. You shall break down their altars.’ But you have not listened to my voice. Why have you done this?
3Therefore I also said, ‘I will not drive them out from before you; but they shall be in your sides, and their gods will be a snare to you.’”
4When the LORD’s angel spoke these words to all the children of Israel, the people lifted up their voice and wept.
5They called the name of that place Bochim, and they sacrificed there to the LORD.
6Now when Joshua had sent the people away, the children of Israel each went to his inheritance to possess the land.
7The people served the LORD all the days of Joshua, and all the days of the elders who outlived Joshua, who had seen all the great work of the LORD that he had worked for Israel.
8Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of the LORD, died, being one hundred ten years old.
9They buried him in the border of his inheritance in Timnath Heres, in the hill country of Ephraim, on the north of the mountain of Gaash.
10After all that generation were gathered to their fathers, another generation arose after them who didn’t know the LORD, nor the work which he had done for Israel.
11The children of Israel did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, and served the Baals.
12They abandoned the LORD, the God of their fathers, who brought them out of the land of Egypt, and followed other gods, of the gods of the peoples who were around them, and bowed themselves down to them; and they provoked the LORD to anger.
13They abandoned the LORD, and served Baal and the Ashtaroth.
14The LORD’s anger burned against Israel, and he delivered them into the hands of raiders who plundered them. He sold them into the hands of their enemies all around, so that they could no longer stand before their enemies.
15Wherever they went out, the LORD’s hand was against them for evil, as the LORD had spoken, and as the LORD had sworn to them; and they were very distressed.
16The LORD raised up judges, who saved them out of the hand of those who plundered them.
17Yet they didn’t listen to their judges; for they prostituted themselves to other gods, and bowed themselves down to them. They quickly turned away from the way in which their fathers walked, obeying the LORD’s commandments. They didn’t do so.
18When the LORD raised up judges for them, then the LORD was with the judge, and saved them out of the hand of their enemies all the days of the judge; for it grieved the LORD because of their groaning by reason of those who oppressed them and troubled them.
19But when the judge was dead, they turned back, and dealt more corruptly than their fathers in following other gods to serve them and to bow down to them. They didn’t cease what they were doing, or give up their stubborn ways.
20The LORD’s anger burned against Israel; and he said, “Because this nation transgressed my covenant which I commanded their fathers, and has not listened to my voice,
21I also will no longer drive out any of the nations that Joshua left when he died from before them;
22that by them I may test Israel, to see if they will keep the LORD’s way to walk therein, as their fathers kept it, or not.”
23So the LORD left those nations, without driving them out hastily. He didn’t deliver them into Joshua’s hand.
