Whithersoever they went out, the hand of the LORD was against them for evil, as the LORD had said, and as the LORD had sworn unto them: and they were greatly distressed.

Verse 15 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.

sondern wo sie hinaus wollten, da war des HERRN Hand wider sie zum Unglück, wie denn der HERR ihnen gesagt und geschworen hatte. Und sie wurden hart gedrängt.
Por donde quiera que salían, la mano de Jehová era contra ellos para mal, como Jehová había dicho, y como Jehová se lo había jurado; así los afligió en gran manera.
Cada vez que salían, la mano de Jehová estaba contra ellos para su mal, tal como Jehová había dicho y tal como les había jurado. Se vieron en gran angustia.
Partout où ils allaient, la main de l'Eternel était contre eux pour leur faire du mal, comme l'Eternel l'avait dit, comme l'Eternel le leur avait juré. Ils furent ainsi dans une grande détresse.
Dovunque uscivano, la mano del Signore era contro a loro in male, come il Signore avea loro detto e giurato; onde furono grandemente distretti.
Por onde quer que saíam, a mão do SENHOR era contra eles para mal, como o SENHOR tinha falado, e como o SENHOR lhes tinha jurado; e estavam em grande aflição.
他們無論往何處去,耶和華的手都以災禍攻擊他們,正如耶和華所說的,又如耶和華向他們所起的誓;他們就極其困苦。
