14 And look! You have risen in your fathers’ place, a brood of sinful men, to increase still more the afierce anger of the Lord against Israel.
15 For if you aturn away from following Him, He will once again leave them in the wilderness, and you will destroy all these people.”
16 Then they came near to him and said: “We will build sheepfolds here for our livestock, and cities for our little ones,
17 but awe ourselves will be armed, ready to go before the children of Israel until we have brought them to their place; and our little ones will dwell in the fortified cities because of the inhabitants of the land.
18 aWe will not return to our homes until every one of the children of Israel has1 received his inheritance.
