7 And the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the LORD, and forgat the LORD their God, and served Baalim and the groves. ... |
12 And the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of the LORD: and the LORD strengthened Eglon the king of Moab against Israel, because they had done evil in the sight of the LORD. |
13 And he gathered unto him the children of Ammon and Amalek, and went and smote Israel, and possessed the city of palm trees. |
14 So the children of Israel served Eglon the king of Moab eighteen years. |
