Judges 2:14-18 So ⌊the anger of Yahweh was kindled⌋* against Israel, and he gave them into the hand of plunderers; and they plundered them, and he sold them into the hand of their enemies from all sides. They were unable to withstand their enemies any longer.

LEB⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁴ So _⌊the anger of Yahweh was kindled_⌋* against Israel, and he gave them into the hand of plunderers; and they plundered them, and he sold them into the hand of their enemies from all sides. They were unable to withstand their enemies any longer. ¹⁵ _⌊Whenever_⌋* they went out, the hand of Yahweh was against them to harm them, just as Yahweh warned, and just as Yahweh had sworn to them. And _⌊they were very distressed_⌋.* ¹⁶ Then Yahweh raised up leaders,* and they delivered them from the hand of their plunderers. ¹⁷ But they did not listen to their leaders,* but lusted after other gods and bowed down to them. They turned away quickly from the way that their ancestors* went, who had obeyed the commandment of Yahweh; they did not do as their ancestors. ¹⁸ And when Yahweh raised leaders* for them, Yahweh was with the leader,* and he delivered them from the hand of their enemies all the days of the leader,* for Yahweh was moved by their groaning because of their persecutors and oppressors.
