Judges 10:6-9

New International Version

Jephthah

⁶ Again the Israelites did evil in the eyes of the Lord.^(A) They served the Baals and the Ashtoreths,^(B) and the gods of Aram,^(C) the gods of Sidon,^(D) the gods of Moab, the gods of the Ammonites^(E) and the gods of the Philistines.^(F) And because the Israelites forsook the Lord^(G) and no longer served him, ⁷ he became angry^(H) with them. He sold them^(I) into the hands of the Philistines and the Ammonites, ⁸ who that year shattered and crushed them. For eighteen years they oppressed all the Israelites on the east side of the Jordan in Gilead,^(J) the land of the Amorites. ⁹ The Ammonites also crossed the Jordan to fight against Judah,^(K) Benjamin and Ephraim;^(L) Israel was in great distress.
