Judges 10:13

13 Yet you have forsaken me and served other gods; therefore I will deliver you no more.

Judges 10:13 Meaning and Commentary

Judges 10:13

Ye have forsaken me, and served other gods
Since they had been so remarkably saved, time after time, and delivered from so many powerful enemies, which was dreadful ingratitude:

wherefore I will deliver you no more;
which is not to be understood absolutely, since after this he did deliver them, but conditionally, unless they repented of their idolatries, and forsook them. This is said to bring them to a sense of their sin and danger.

12 The Sido'nians also, and the Amal'ekites, and the Ma'onites, oppressed you; and you cried to me, and I delivered you out of their hand.

13 Yet you have forsaken me and served other gods; therefore I will deliver you no more.

14 Go and cry to the gods whom you have chosen; let them deliver you in the time of your distress."
