Chap. II.
An Angel reciting manie benefites of God towardes Israel, and their ingratitude,
4. they weepe for their faultes. 10. After the death of Iosue
and other ancientes of his time, the people often fal, and repenting are deliuered
from afflictions. 19. but stil fal againe worse and worse.
1 And the note Angel of our Lord went vp from Galgal to
the place of weepers, and said: I brought you out of
Ægypt, and haue brought you into the Land, for the which
I sware to your fathers: and I promised that I would not
make frustrate my couenant with you for euer:
2 onlie so
that you should not make a league with the inhabitantes of
this Land, but should ouerthrow their altares: and you would
not heare my voice: why haue you done this?
3 For the
which cause I would not destroy them from before your
face: that you may haue enemies, and their goddes may be a
ruine vnto you.
4 And when the Angel of our Lord spake
these wordes to al the children of Israel: they lifted vp their
voice, and wept.
5 And the name of that place was called,
the place of weepers, or of teares: and note there they immolated
hostes to our Lord.
6 Iosue therfore dismissed the
people, and the children of Israel went euerie one into his
possession, to obtayne it:
7 and they serued our Lord al his
daies, and the daies of the ancientes, of them that liued a long
time after him, and knew al the workes of our Lord, which

he had done with Israel.
8 And Iosue the sonne of Nun, the
seruant of our Lord, died, being a hundred and ten yeares old,
9 and they buried him in the borders of his possession in
Thamnathsare in the mount of Ephraim, on the North side
of mount Gaas.
10 And al that generation was gathered to
to their fathers: and there rose others, that knew not our
Lord, and the workes which he had done with Israel.
11 And
the children of Israel did euil in the sight of our Lord, and
serued Baalim.
12 And they left our Lord the God of their
fathers, that had brought them out of the Land of Ægypt:
and folowed strange goddes, and the goddes of the peoples,
that dwelt round about them, and adored them: and they
prouoked our Lord to anger,
13 leauing him, and seruing
Baal and Astaroth.
14 And our Lord being wrath against Israel,
deliuered them into the handes of ransackers: who
tooke them and sold them to the enemies, that dwelt round
about: neither could they resist their aduersaries:
15 but whither
soeuer they had meant to goe, the hand of our Lord was
vpon them, as he spake, and sware to them: and they were
vehemently afflicted.
16 And our Lord note raysed vp Iudges,
that should deliuer them from the handes of the wasters: but
neither would they heare them,
17 fornicating with strange
goddes, and adoring them. They did quickly forsake the
way, in the which their fathers had gone: and hearing the
commandementes of our Lord, they did al thinges contrarie.
18 And when our Lord raysed vp Iudges, in their daies he was
moued with mercie, and heard the groninges of the afflicted,
and deliuered them from the slaughter of the wasters.
19 But
after the Iudge was dead, they returned, and did much worse
things then their fathers had done, folowing strange goddes
seruing them, and adoring them. They left not their inuentions,
and the verie hard way, by which they were accustomed
to walke.
20 And the furie of our Lord was angrie against
Israel, & said: Because this nation hath made my couen&abar;t
frustrate, which I had made with their fathers, & hath c&obar;temned
my voice:
21 I also wil not destroy the nations which
Iosue did let alone, and died:
22 that in them I may trie Israel,
whether they wil keepe the way of the Lord, and walke in it,
as their fathers kept it, or no.
23 Our Lord therfore left al
these nations, and would not quickly ouerthrow them, neither
deliuered them into the handes of Iosue.
