Context of Judges 10:13
11The Lord replied, ‘I have saved you many times when you called to me for help. I saved you from the power of the Egyptians, the Amorites, the Ammonites, the Philistines, the Sidonians, the Amalekites and the Midianites. But now you have turned away from me and you worship other gods instead. So I will not rescue you again. 14Go and ask those other gods to help you! They are the gods that you have chosen, so let them rescue you from your trouble!’ 15But the Israelites said to the Lord, ‘We are guilty. Punish us in whatever way you think is right, but please rescue us now.’
