5. And Jair died and was buried in Kamon.
6. And the Israelites again did what was evil in the sight of the Lord, served the Baals, the Ashtaroth [female deities], the gods of Syria, the gods of Sidon, the gods of Moab, the gods of the Ammonites, and the gods of the Philistines. They forsook the Lord and did not serve Him.
7. And the anger of the Lord was kindled against Israel, and He sold them into the hands of the Philistines and the Ammonites,
8. And they oppressed and crushed and broke the Israelites that year. For eighteen years they oppressed all the Israelites beyond the Jordan in the land of the Amorites, which is in Gilead.
9. And the Ammonites passed over the Jordan to fight against Judah, Benjamin, and the house of Ephraim, so that Israel was sorely distressed.
10. And the Israelites cried to the Lord, saying, We have sinned against You, because we have forsaken our God and have served the Baals.
