‏ Judges 2:14-16

14 aSo the anger of the Lord was kindled against Israel, and he bgave them over to plunderers, who plundered them. cAnd he sold them into the hand of their surrounding enemies, dso that they could no longer withstand their enemies. 15Whenever they marched out, the hand of the Lord was against them for harm, as the Lord had warned, eand as the Lord had sworn to them. And they were in terrible distress.
