Context of Judges 10:13

11The Lord said to the Israelites, “Did I not deliver you from Egypt, the Amorites, the Ammonites, the Philistines, 12the Sidonians, Amalek, and Midian when they oppressed you? You cried out for help to me, and I delivered you from their power. But since you abandoned me and worshiped other gods, I will not deliver you again. 14Go and cry for help to the gods you have chosen! Let them deliver you from trouble!” 15But the Israelites said to the Lord, “We have sinned. You do to us as you see fit, but deliver us today!”

It is necessary, in true repentance, that there be a full conviction that those things cannot help us which we have set in competition with God.
