11. Then the people of Israel sinned against the Lord and began to serve the Baals.
12. They stopped worshipping the Lord, the God of their ancestors, the God who had brought them out of Egypt, and they began to worship other gods, the gods of the peoples round them. They bowed down to them and made the Lord angry.
13. They stopped worshipping the Lord and served the Baals and the Astartes.
14. And so the Lord became furious with Israel and let raiders attack and rob them. He let enemies all around overpower them, and the Israelites could no longer protect themselves.
