Context of Judges 10:13
11The Lord said to the Israelites, “Did I not rescue you from the Egyptians, the Amorites, the Ammonites, and the Philistines? 12Also when the Sidonians, the Amalekites, and the Maonites oppressed and crushed you, you cried out to Me, and I rescued you from their hands. Yet you have abandoned (rejected) Me and served other gods; therefore I will no longer rescue you. 14Go, cry out to the gods you have chosen; let them rescue you in your time of distress.” 15The Israelites said to the Lord, “We have sinned, do to us whatever seems good to You; only please rescue us this day.”
