13 Wakamwacha Yehova na kuabudu Baali na sanamu za Ashtorethi.+

7 Basi Waisraeli wakatenda maovu machoni pa Yehova, wakamsahau Yehova Mungu wao, na kuabudu Mabaali+ na miti mitakatifu.*+

9 Lakini walimsahau Yehova Mungu wao, naye akawauza+ mikononi mwa Sisera+ mkuu wa jeshi la Hasori na mikononi mwa Wafilisti+ na mikononi mwa mfalme wa Moabu,+ na maadui hao wakapigana nao. 10 Nao wakamlilia Yehova awasaidie+ na kusema, ‘Tumetenda dhambi,+ kwa maana tumekuacha wewe, Yehova, ili kuabudu Mabaali+ na sanamu za Ashtorethi;+ sasa tuokoe kutoka mikononi mwa maadui wetu ili tukutumikie.’
