Judges 10:13-18 ▼

13 But you have abandoned me and worshiped other gods. Therefore, I will not deliver you again.

14 Go and cry out to the gods you have chosen. Let them deliver you whenever you are oppressed.”

15 But the Israelites said, “We have sinned. Deal with us as you see fit; only rescue us today! ”

16 So they got rid of the foreign gods among them and worshiped the LORD, and he became weary of Israel’s misery.

17 The Ammonites were called together, and they camped in Gilead. So the Israelites assembled and camped at Mizpah.

18 The rulers of Gilead said to one another, “Which man will begin the fight against the Ammonites? He will be the leader of all the inhabitants of Gilead.”
