Context of Judges 10:13

11And Jehovah said to the children of Israel, Did I not [save you] from the Egyptians, and from the Amorites, from the children of Ammon, and from the Philistines? 12The Zidonians also, and Amalek and Maon oppressed you, and ye cried to me, and I saved you out of their hand. But ye have forsaken me, and served other gods; therefore I will save you no more. 14Go and cry to the gods that ye have chosen: let them save you in the time of your trouble. 15And the children of Israel said to Jehovah, We have sinned. Do thou unto us according to all that is good in thy sight; only deliver us, we pray thee, this day.

• Tyndale Open Study Notes · v. 6-16The Lord responded to his people's complete abandonment by allowing severe oppression (Judges 10:8).
