Judges 10:6-16

Judges 10:6-16

[6] And the children  of Israel  did  evil  again  in the sight  of the LORD,  and served  Baalim,  and Ashtaroth,  and the gods  of Syria,  and the gods  of Zidon,  and the gods  of Moab,  and the gods  of the children  of Ammon,  and the gods  of the Philistines,  and forsook  the LORD,  and served  [7] And the anger  of the LORD  was hot  against Israel,  and he sold  them into the hands  of the Philistines,  and into the hands  of the children  of Ammon.  [8] And that year  they vexed  and oppressed  the children  of Israel:  eighteen  years,  all the children  of Israel  that were on the other side  Jordan  in the land  of the Amorites,  which is in Gilead.  [9] Moreover the children  of Ammon  passed over  Jordan  to fight  also against Judah,  and against Benjamin,  and against the house  of Ephraim;  so that Israel  was sore  distressed.  [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] 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.
