Verse 11 is found in chapter 2 of Judges. Israel begins serving the Baals and the images of Ashtoreth, provoking the Lord’s anger. The theological cycle of the book is established: abandonment of God, oppression, and loss of the protection Israel had received. Defeat is not presented simply as military inferiority but as a consequence of covenant unfaithfulness.

Da taten die Kinder Israel übel vor dem HERRN und dienten den Baalim
Y los hijos de Israel hicieron lo malo en ojos de Jehová, y sirvieron a los Baales:
Los israelitas hicieron lo malo a los ojos de Jehová y sirvieron a los baales.
Les enfants d'Israël firent alors ce qui déplaît à l'Eternel, et ils servirent les Baals.
E i figliuoli d’Israele fecero ciò che dispiace al Signore, e servirono a’ Baali.
Então fizeram os filhos de Israel o que era mau aos olhos do SENHOR; e serviram aos baalins.
以色列 人行耶和華眼中看為惡的事,去事奉諸 巴力 。
