10:6Then the children of Israel again did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah. And they served the Baals and the Ashtaroth and the gods of Aram and the gods of Sidon and the gods of Moab and the gods of the children of Ammon and the gods of the Philistines, and they forsook Jehovah and did not serve Him. Compare
10:7And the anger of Jehovah burned against Israel, and He sold them into the hand of the Philistines and into the hand of the children of Ammon. Compare

10:13But you forsook Me and served other gods; therefore I will not save you again. Compare
10:14Go and cry out to the gods that you have chosen. Let them save you in the time of your distress. Compare
10:15But the children of Israel said to Jehovah, We have sinned. You do with us according to all that is good in Your sight. Only deliver us this day, we pray. Compare
