Judges 2:12

And 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.

And they forsook {H5800} the LORD {H3068} God {H430} of their fathers {H1}, which brought them out {H3318} of the land {H776} of Egypt {H4714}, and followed {H3212}{H310} other {H312} gods {H430}, of the gods {H430} of the people {H5971} that were round about {H5439} them, and bowed {H7812} themselves unto them, and provoked the LORD {H3068} to anger {H3707}.

They abandoned ADONAI, the God of their fathers, who had brought them out of the land of Egypt, and followed other gods, selected from the gods of the peoples around them, and worshipped them; this made ADONAI angry.

Thus they forsook the LORD, the God of their fathers, who had brought them out of the land of Egypt, and they followed after various gods of the peoples around them. They bowed down to them and provoked the LORD to anger,

and they forsook Jehovah, the God of their fathers, who brought them out of the land of Egypt, and followed other gods, of the gods of the peoples that were round about them, and bowed themselves down unto them: and they provoked Jehovah to anger.
