Cuando los sidonios, los amalecitas y los maonitas os oprimían, clamasteis a mí, y yo os libré de sus manos.
De los de Sidón, de Amalec, y de Maón, y clamando á mí os he librado de sus manos?
También los de Sidón os oprimieron, y los de Amalec, y los de Maón; y clamasteis a mí, y yo os libré de sus manos.
Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
Zidonians: Judges 5:19-31
Amalekites: Judges 6:3
the Maonites: The LXX have "the Midianites," which Dr. Wall thinks the true reading. But the Maonites might be a tribe of Arabs, inhabitants of Maon - Joshua 15:55. 1 Samuel 23:24, 1 Samuel 23:25, 1 Samuel 25:2, which assisted Moab. 2 Chronicles 26:6, 2 Chronicles 26:7, Psalms 106:42, Psalms 106:43
Reciprocal: Exodus 2:23 - cry Numbers 10:9 - oppresseth Judges 3:3 - Sidonians 1 Kings 16:31 - the Zidonians 1 Chronicles 4:41 - the habitations Isaiah 46:7 - one shall cry
Gill's Notes on the Bible
The Zidonians also,.... Who were left in the land to distress them, though there is no particular mention of them, and of the distress they gave them, and of their deliverance from it, which yet is not at all to be questioned:
and the Amalekites; both quickly after they came out of Egypt,
Exodus 17:13 and when they were come into the land of Canaan, joining the Moabites and the Midianites against them, Judges 3:13
and the Maonites did oppress you; meaning either the old inhabitants of Maon, a city in the mountains of Judah, near to which was a wilderness of this name, Joshua 15:55 or rather a people of Arabia, called by Strabo z, and Diodorus Siculus a, Minaeans, the same with Mehunim, mentioned with the Arabians, 2 Chronicles 26:7 and who perhaps came along with the Midianites, when they oppressed Israel; though some have thought of the old inhabitants of Bethmeon and Baalmeon, Numbers 32:38
and ye cried unto me, and I delivered you out of their hands; all those mercies and deliverances are mentioned to aggravate their sins, that notwithstanding the Lord hath so often and eminently appeared for them, yet they deserted him and his worship, and fell into idolatry. Jarchi observes, that here are seven salvations or deliverances mentioned in opposition to the seven sorts of false gods or idols they had served,
Judges 10:6.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The Zidonians - An allusion to the time of Barak, when the Zidonians doubtless formed part of the great confederacy of Canaanites under Jabin king of Hazor. See Joshua 11:8.
The Amalekites - In the time of Gideon (marginal reference).
The Maonites - Probably one of the tribes of the “children of the East,†who came with the Midianites and Amalekites in the time of Gideon, and may have been conspicuous for their hostility to Israel, and for the greatness of their discomfiture, though the record has not been preserved. The name is “Mehununs†in 2 Chronicles 26:7.
