¹¹And the LORD said vnto the children of Israel, Did not I deliuer you from the Egyptians, and from the Amorites, from the children of Ammon, and from the Philistines?

¹²The Zidonians also and the Amalekites, and the Maonites did oppresse you, and ye cried to me, and I deliuered you out of their hand.

^13*Yet ye haue forsaken me, and serued other gods: wherefore I will deliuer you no more.

¹⁴Go, and cry vnto the gods which ye haue chosen, let them deliuer you in the time of your tribulation.

¹⁵¶ And the children of Israel said vnto the LORD, We haue sinned, doe thou vnto vs whatsoeuer ^†seemeth good vnto thee, deliuer vs onely, wee pray thee, this day.

¹⁶And they put away the ^†strange gods from among them, and serued the LORD: and his soule ^†was grieued for the misery of Israel.

¹⁷Then the children of Ammon were ^†gathered together, and encamped in Gilead: and the children of Israel assembled themselues together, and encamped in Mizpeh.

¹⁸And the people and Princes of Gilead, said one to another, What man is hee that will begin to fight against the children of Ammon? he shall ^*be Head ouer all the inhabitants of Gilead.
