10 And the people of Israel (A)cried out to the Lord, saying, “We have sinned against you, because (B)we have forsaken our God and have served the Baals.” 11 And the Lord said to the people of Israel, “Did I not save you (C)from the Egyptians and (D)from the Amorites, (E)from the Ammonites and (F)from the Philistines? 12 The Sidonians also, and (G)the Amalekites and the Maonites oppressed you, and you cried out to me, and I (H)saved you out of their hand. 13 Yet you have (I)forsaken me and served other gods; therefore I will save you no more. 14 Go and cry out (J)to the gods whom you have chosen; let them save you in the time of your distress.” 15 And the people of Israel said to the Lord, “We have sinned; do to us whatever seems good to you. Only please deliver us this day.” 16 So they put away the foreign gods from among them and served the Lord, and (K)he became impatient over the misery of Israel.

10 Then the Israelis cried out to the Lord and told him,[a] “We have sinned against you because we have abandoned our God to serve the Baals.”

11 The Lord replied to the Israelis, “Aren’t you away from the Egyptians, the Amorites, the Ammonites, and the Philistines? 12 And when the Sidonians, the Amalekites, and the Maonites harassed you, you cried out to me, and I delivered you from under their domination. 13 But you have abandoned me and served other gods. Therefore I will no longer be delivering you. 14 Go and cry out to the gods that you have chosen for yourselves. Let them deliver you in your time of trouble.”

15 The Israelis replied to the Lord, “We have sinned, so do to us anything that’s right to do in your opinion, just please deliver us right now.” 16 When they put away their foreign gods and served the Lord, he brought Israel’s misery to an end.
