Judges 10:10-16

Amplified Bible

¹⁰ Then the Israelites cried out to the Lord [for help], saying, “We have sinned against You, because we have abandoned (rejected) our God and have served the Baals.” ¹¹ The Lord said to the Israelites, “Did I not rescue you from the Egyptians, the Amorites, the Ammonites, and the Philistines? ¹² Also when the Sidonians, the Amalekites, and the Maonites oppressed and crushed you, you cried out to Me, and I rescued you from their hands. ¹³ Yet you have abandoned (rejected) Me and served other gods; therefore I will no longer rescue you. ¹⁴ Go, cry out to the gods you have chosen; let them rescue you in your time of distress.” ¹⁵ The Israelites said to the Lord, “We have sinned, do to us whatever seems good to You; only please rescue us this day.” ¹⁶ So they removed the foreign gods from among them and served the Lord; and He could bear the misery of Israel no longer.
