Hakim-hakim 2:20

A Divine Decision

2:20 The Lord was furious with Israel. ⁴  He said, “This nation ⁵  has violated the terms of the agreement I made with their ancestors ⁶  by disobeying me. ⁷ 

[2:2]  ¹ tn Heb “their altars.”

[2:2]  ² tn Heb “you have not listened to my voice.”

[2:2]  ³ tn Heb “What is this you have done?”

[2:20]  ⁴ tn Or “The Lord’s anger burned [or “raged”] against Israel.”

[2:20]  ⁵ tn Heb “Because this nation.”

[2:20]  ⁶ tn Heb “my covenant which I commanded their fathers.”

[2:20]  ⁷ tn Heb “and has not listened to my voice.” The expression “to not listen to [God’s] voice” is idiomatic here for disobeying him.
