10 And the children of Israel cried unto the LORD, saying, We have sinned against thee, both because we have forsaken our God, and also served Baalim. |
11 And the LORD said unto the children of Israel, Did not I deliver you from the Egyptians, and from the Amorites, from the children of Ammon, and from the Philistines? |
12 The Zidonians also, and the Amalekites, and the Maonites, did oppress you; and ye cried to me, and I delivered you out of their hand. |
13 Yet ye have forsaken me, and served other gods: wherefore I will deliver you no more. |
14 Go and cry unto the gods which ye have chosen; let them deliver you in the time of your tribulation. |
15 And the children of Israel said unto the LORD, We have sinned: do thou unto us whatsoever seemeth good unto thee; deliver us only, we pray thee, this day. |
16 And they put away the strange gods from among them, and served the LORD: and his soul was grieved for the misery of Israel. |
