9 And when they aforgot the Lord their God, He sold them into the hand of bSisera, commander of the army of Hazor, into the hand of the cPhilistines, and into the hand of the king of dMoab; and they fought against them.
10 Then they cried out to the Lord, and said, a‘We have sinned, because we have forsaken the Lord band served the Baals and Ashtoreths; but now deliver us from the hand of our enemies, and we will serve You.’
11 And the Lord sent Jerubbaal, Bedan, aJephthah, and bSamuel, and delivered you out of the hand of your enemies on every side; and you dwelt in safety.
12 And when you saw that aNahash king of the Ammonites came against you, byou said to me, ‘No, but a king shall reign over us,’ when cthe Lord your God was your king.
13 “Now therefore, ahere is the king bwhom you have chosen and whom you have desired. And take note, cthe Lord has set a king over you.
