New International Version NIV
11 And the Lord said to them: Did not the Egyptians, and the Amorrhites, and the children of Ammon, and the Philistines,
11
The LORD replied, “When the Egyptians, the Amorites, the Ammonites, the Philistines,
12 The Sidonians also, and Amalec, and Chanaan, oppress you, and you cried to me, and I delivered you out of their hand?
12
the Sidonians, the Amalekites and the Maonites oppressed you and you cried to me for help, did I not save you from their hands?
13 And yet you have forsaken me, and have worshipped strange gods: therefore I will deliver you no more:
13
But you have forsaken me and served other gods, so I will no longer save you.
14 Go, and call upon the gods which you have chosen: let them deliver you in the time of distress.
14
Go and cry out to the gods you have chosen. Let them save you when you are in trouble!”
15 And the children of Israel said to the Lord: We have sinned, do thou unto us whatsoever pleaseth thee: only deliver us this time.
15
But the Israelites said to the LORD, “We have sinned. Do with us whatever you think best, but please rescue us now.”
16 And saying these things, they cast away out of their coasts all the idols of strange gods, and served the Lord their God: and he was touched with their miseries.
16
Then they got rid of the foreign gods among them and served the LORD. And he could bear Israel’s misery no longer.

18 And the princes of Galaad said one to another: Whosoever of us shall first begin to fight against the children of Ammon, he shall be the leader of the people of Galaad.
18
The leaders of the people of Gilead said to each other, “Whoever will take the lead in attacking the Ammonites will be head over all who live in Gilead.”
