(A)When Jacob went into Egypt, and the Egyptians oppressed them,[a] (B)then your fathers cried out to the Lord and (C)the Lord sent Moses and Aaron, (D)who brought your fathers out of Egypt and made them dwell in this place. But (E)they forgot the Lord their God. (F)And he sold them into the hand of Sisera, commander of the army of Hazor,[b] (G)and into the hand of the Philistines, (H)and into the hand of the king of Moab. And they fought against them. 10 (I)And they cried out to the Lord and said, ‘We have sinned, because we have forsaken the Lord (J)and have served the Baals and the Ashtaroth. But now (K)deliver us out of the hand of our enemies, that we may serve you.’
