Judges 2

וַיַּעַל מַלְאַךְ-יְהוָה מִן-הַגִּלְגָּל אֶל-הַבֹּכִים וַיֹּאמֶר אַֽעֲלֶה אֶתְכֶם מִמִּצְרַיִם וָֽאָבִיא אֶתְכֶם אֶל-הָאָרֶץ אֲשֶׁר נִשְׁבַּעְתִּי לַאֲבֹתֵיכֶם וָֽאֹמַר לֹֽא-אָפֵר בְּרִיתִי אִתְּכֶם לְעוֹלָֽם׃
1
And an angel of the LORD came up from Gilgal to Bochim, and said, I made you to go up out of Egypt, and have brought you unto the land which I sware unto your fathers; and I said, I will never break my covenant with you.
וַֽיִּקְרְאוּ שֵֽׁם-הַמָּקוֹם הַהוּא בֹּכִים וַיִּזְבְּחוּ-שָׁם לַֽיהוָֽה׃
5
And they called the name of that place Bochim: and they sacrificed there unto the LORD.
