Judges 2:1-5

Judges 2:1-5 TPT

The Angel of YAHWEH went up from Gilgal to Bokim and said to the people: “I rescued you from Egypt and brought you into the land I had promised to your ancestors. I said, ‘I will never, never break my covenant with you, and you are never, never to make a covenant with the inhabitants of this land. You must tear down their altars to their false gods!’ But you have not listened to my voice. See what you have done! Therefore listen to what I’m telling you—I won’t drive them out before you. Instead, they will be thorns in your sides, and their gods will become a trap for you!” After the Angel of YAHWEH had delivered his message to all the Israelites, the people burst out with loud, bitter weeping. So they named that place Bokim, and in that place of tears they offered sacrifices to YAHWEH.
