Judges 10:13

13 and ye -- ye have forsaken Me, and serve other gods, therefore I add not to save you.

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.
