Judges 10:10-12

10:10 The Israelites cried out for help to the Lord: “We have sinned against you. We abandoned our God and worshiped ¹  the Baals.” 10:11 The Lord said to the Israelites, “Did I not deliver you from Egypt, the Amorites, the Ammonites, the Philistines, 10:12 the Sidonians, Amalek, and Midian ²  when they oppressed you? ³  You cried out for help to me, and I delivered you from their power. ⁴ 

[10:10]  ¹ tn Or “served”; or “followed.”

[10:12]  ² tc The translation follows the LXX which reads “Midian”; the Hebrew text has “Maon.”

[10:12]  ³ tn The words “Did I not deliver you” are interpretive. The Hebrew text simply reads, “Is it not from Egypt…when they oppressed you?” Perhaps the incomplete sentence reflects the Lord’s frustration.

[10:12]  ⁴ tn Heb “hand.”
