Jueces 2:21 In-Context

19 Pero cuando el caudillo moría, ellos volvían a corromperse aún más que sus antepasados, pues se iban tras otros dioses, a los que servían y adoraban. De este modo se negaban a abandonar sus malvadas costumbres y su obstinada conducta.
20 Por eso el SEÑOR se enfureció contra Israel y dijo: «Puesto que esta nación ha violado el pacto que yo establecí con sus antepasados y no me ha obedecido,
21 tampoco yo echaré de su presencia a ninguna de las naciones que Josué dejó al morir.
22 Las usaré para poner a prueba a Israel y ver si guarda mi camino y anda por él, como lo hicieron sus antepasados».
23 Por eso el SEÑOR dejó en paz a esas naciones; no las echó en seguida ni las entregó en manos de Josué.
