Judges 2:9

Verse 9 of 23. The 2nd of 21 chapters in Judges, in History.

5And they called the name of that place Bochim: and they sacrificed there unto the Lord.

6And when Joshua had let the people go, the children of Israel went every man unto his inheritance to possess the land.

7And the people served the Lord all the days of Joshua, and all the days of the elders that outlived Joshua, who had seen all the great works of the Lord, that he did for Israel.

8And Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of the Lord, died, being an hundred and ten years old.

9And they buried him in the border of his inheritance in Timnath–heres, in the mount of Ephraim, on the north side of the hill Gaash.

10And also all that generation were gathered unto their fathers: and there arose another generation after them, which knew not the Lord, nor yet the works which he had done for Israel.

11And the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the Lord, and served Baalim:

12And they forsook the Lord God of their fathers, which brought them out of the land of Egypt, and followed other gods, of the gods of the people that were round about them, and bowed themselves unto them, and provoked the Lord to anger.

13And they forsook the Lord, and served Baal and Ashtaroth.
