Judges 8:13-17
1599 Geneva Bible
13 ¶ So Gideon the son of Joash returned from battle, [a]the sun being yet high,
14 And took a servant of the men of Succoth, and inquired of him: and he [b]wrote to him the princes of Succoth and the Elders thereof, even seventy and seven men.
15 And he came unto the men of Succoth, and said, Behold Zebah, and Zalmunna, by whom ye upbraided me, saying, Are the hands of Zebah, and Zalmunna already in thine hands, that we should give bread unto thy weary men?
16 Then he took the Elders of the city, and thorns of the wilderness and briers, and [c]did tear the men of Succoth with them.
17 Also he brake down the tower of (A)Penuel, and slew the men of the city.
