Judges 10:14

14 Go and cry out to the gods you have chosen. Let them rescue you when you get in trouble."

Judges 10:14 Meaning and Commentary

Judges 10:14

Go and cry unto the gods which ye have chosen
For they were their choice, and not what they were obliged to serve through persecution, and by compulsion of others, and whom they needed not, having the Lord Jehovah to be their God; and they are bid not seriously, but in an ironical or sarcastic way, to call upon them for help in this their time of distress, in whose power it was not to relieve them:

let them deliver you in the time of your tribulation;
if they can, whom you have served in your prosperity.

Judges 10:14 In-Context

12 the Sidonians, the Amalekites, and the Maonites oppressed you in the past, and you cried out to me. Did I not save you from them?

13 But you still left me and worshiped other gods, so I am not going to rescue you again.

14 Go and cry out to the gods you have chosen. Let them rescue you when you get in trouble."

15 But the people of Israel said to the Lord, "We have sinned. Do whatever you like, but please, save us today."

16 So they got rid of their foreign gods and worshiped the Lord; and he became troubled over Israel's distress.
