12. The Zidonians also, and the Amalekites, and the Maonites oppressed you; and ye cried to me, and I delivered you out of their hand.
13. Yet ye have forsaken me, and served other gods: wherefore I will deliver you no more.
14. Go and cry to the gods which ye have chosen; let them deliver you in the time of your tribulation.
15. And the children of Israel said to the LORD, We have sinned: do thou to us whatever seemeth good to thee; deliver us only, we pray thee, this day.
16. And they put away the strange gods from among them, and served the LORD: and his soul was grieved for the misery of Israel.
17. Then the children of Ammon were assembled, and encamped in Gilead. And the children of Israel assembled themselves, and encamped in Mizpeh.
