¹⁰ Then the ^(A)sons of Israel cried out to the Lord, saying, “We have sinned against You, for indeed, we have forsaken our God and served the Baals.” ¹¹ The Lord said to the sons of Israel, “Did I not deliver you ^(B)from the Egyptians, ^(C)the Amorites, ^(D)the sons of Ammon, and the Philistines? ¹² Also when the Sidonians, the Amalekites and the Maonites ^(E)oppressed you, you cried out to Me, and I delivered you from their hands. ¹³ Yet ^(F)you have forsaken Me and served other gods; therefore I will no longer deliver you. ^14 (G)Go and cry out to the gods which you have chosen; let them deliver you in the time of your distress.” ¹⁵ The sons of Israel said to the Lord, “We have sinned, ^(H)do to us whatever seems good to You; only please deliver us this day.” ^16 (I)So they put away the foreign gods from among them and served the Lord; and ^[a](J)He could bear the misery of Israel no longer.
