Judges 8:2-7

2And he saidH559 to them, What have I done nowH6258 in comparison with you? Are not the gleaningsH5955 of EphraimH669 betterH2896 than the vintage of Abi-ezer?

3Into your handsH3027 hath 1GodH430 delivered the princesH8269 of MidianH4080, OrebH6159 and ZeebH2062; and what was I ableH3201 to do in comparison with you? ThenH227 their spiritH7307 was appeased toward him, when he saidH1696 that wordH1697.

4And GideonH1439 cameH935 to the JordanH3383, [and] passedH5674 over, he and the threeH7969 hundredH3967 menH376 that were with him, faint, yet pursuingH7291.

5And he saidH559 to the menH376 of SuccothH5523, GiveH5414, I pray you, loaves of breadH3899 to the peopleH5971 that follow me, for they are faint; and I am pursuingH7291 after ZebahH2078 and ZalmunnaH6759, kingsH4428 of MidianH4080.

6And the chiefH8269 men of SuccothH5523 saidH559, Are the handsH3027 of ZebahH2078 and ZalmunnaH6759 already in thy handH3027, that we should giveH5414 breadH3899 to thine armyH6635?

7And GideonH1439 saidH559, ThereforeH3651 when Jehovah delivers ZebahH2078 and ZalmunnaH6759 into my handH3027, I will threshH1758 your fleshH1320 with thornsH6975 of the wildernessH4057 and with briars.
