11. And the LORD said to 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 oppressed 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 to the gods which ye have chosen; let them deliver you in the time of your tribulation.
15. And the children of Israel said to the LORD, We have sinned: do thou to us whatever seemeth good to 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.
