Othniel

^7 (A)And the people of Israel did what was evil in the sight of the Lord. They forgot the Lord their God and served the Baals and ^(B)the Asheroth.

Further Disobedience and Oppression

^6 (A)The people of Israel again did what was evil in the sight of the Lord ^(B)and served the Baals and the Ashtaroth, the gods of Syria, ^(C)the gods of Sidon, the gods of Moab, the gods of the Ammonites, and the gods of the Philistines. And they ^(D)forsook the Lord and did not serve him.

⁴ So the people of Israel put away the Baals and the Ashtaroth, and they served the Lord only.
