Mungu Aikemea Unafiki wa Israeli
10
Ndipo Waisraeli wakamlilia Bwana wakasema, “Tumetenda dhambi dhidi yako, kumwacha Mungu wetu na kutumikia Mabaali.”
11
Bwana akawaambia, “Wakati Wamisri, Waamori, Waamoni, Wafilisti,
12
Wasidoni, Waamaleki na Wamaoni walipowaonea na ninyi mkanililia na kuomba msaada, je, sikuwaokoa kutoka mikononi mwao?
13
Lakini ninyi mmeniacha mimi na kutumikia miungu mingine, kwa hiyo sitawaokoa tena.
14
Nendeni mkaililie ile miungu mlioichagua. Hiyo miungu na iwaokoe mnapokuwa katika taabu!”
15
Lakini Waisraeli wakamwambia Bwana, “Tumetenda dhambi. Ututendee lile unaloona kuwa jema kwako, lakini twakusihi utuokoe sasa.”
16
Nao wakaiondoa hiyo miungu migeni katikati yao nao wakamtumikia Bwana. Naye akahuzunika kwa sababu ya taabu ya Israeli.
