The Angel's Rebuke at Bokim

Judges 2:1-5

2
Chapter 2
1 The angel of the LORD went up from Gilgal to the Weepers and said, "I brought you up from Egypt and brought you into the land that I swore to your fathers, and I said, 'I will not break my covenant with you forever.'" 2 And you, you shall not cut a covenant with the inhabitants of this land; their altars you shall tear down. But you did not listen to my voice—what is this you have done? 3 And I also said, "I will not drive them out from before you, and they will be snares to you, and their gods will be a snare to you." 4 And when the angel of the LORD finished these words to all the sons of Israel, the people lifted their voice and wept. 5 And they called that place Bochim, and they sacrificed there to the LORD.
