⁹ And when the children of Israel cried unto Jehovah, Jehovah raised up a saviour to the children of Israel, who saved them, even Othniel the son of Kenaz, Caleb's younger brother.

¹⁵ But when the children of Israel cried unto Jehovah, Jehovah raised them up a saviour, Ehud the son of Gera, the Benjamite, a man left-handed. And the children of Israel sent tribute by him unto Eglon the king of Moab.

¹³ And Othniel the son of Kenaz, Caleb's younger brother, took it: and he gave him Achsah his daughter to wife.

¹⁰ And the children of Israel cried unto Jehovah, saying, We have sinned against thee, even because we have forsaken our God, and have served the Baalim.

⁷ And it came to pass, when the children of Israel cried unto Jehovah because of Midian,

²⁷ Therefore thou deliveredst them into the hand of their adversaries, who distressed them: and in the time of their trouble, when they cried unto thee, thou heardest from heaven; and according to thy manifold mercies thou gavest them saviours who saved them out of the hand of their adversaries.

³ And the children of Israel cried unto Jehovah: for he had nine hundred chariots of iron; and twenty years he mightily oppressed the children of Israel.

¹⁶ And Jehovah raised up judges, who saved them out of the hand of those that despoiled them.

¹³ Then they cried unto Jehovah in their trouble, And he saved them out of their distresses.

¹⁴ He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, And brake their bonds in sunder.

¹⁵ Oh that men would praise Jehovah for his lovingkindness, And for his wonderful works to the children of men!

¹⁶ For he hath broken the gates of brass, And cut the bars of iron in sunder.

¹⁷ Fools because of their transgression, And because of their iniquities, are afflicted.

¹⁸ Their soul abhorreth all manner of food; And they draw near unto the gates of death.

¹⁹ Then they cry unto Jehovah in their trouble, And he saveth them out of their distresses.

⁴¹ And he gave them into the hand of the nations; And they that hated them ruled over them.

⁴² Their enemies also oppressed them, And they were brought into subjection under their hand.

⁴³ Many times did he deliver them; But they were rebellious in their counsel, And were brought low in their iniquity.

⁴⁴ Nevertheless he regarded their distress, When he heard their cry:

³⁴ When he slew them, then they inquired after him; And they returned and sought God earnestly.

⁵ They cried unto thee, and were delivered: They trusted in thee, and were not put to shame.

¹⁰ And they cried unto Jehovah, and said, We have sinned, because we have forsaken Jehovah, and have served the Baalim and the Ashtaroth: but now deliver us out of the hand of our enemies, and we will serve thee.
