28 Ma quando aveano riposo, ricominciavano a fare il male dinanzi a te; perciò tu li abbandonavi nelle mani dei loro nemici, i quali diventavan loro dominatori; poi, quando ricominciavano a gridare a te, tu li esaudivi dal cielo; e così, nella tua misericordia, più volte li salvasti.
28
“But as soon as they were at rest, they again did what was evil in your sight. Then you abandoned them to the hand of their enemies so that they ruled over them. And when they cried out to you again, you heard from heaven, and in your compassion you delivered them time after time.
