Judges 1:4-7

4They attacked the Canaanites and the Perizzites at Bezek. The Lord helped them to win against 10,000 Canaanite and Perizzite fighters.

5In the battle, they found King Adoni-Bezek and they attacked him there.

6The king ran away, but the Israelites caught him. They cut off his thumbs and his big toes.

7King Adoni-Bezek said, ‘God has punished me because I did the same thing to 70 other kings. I cut off their thumbs and big toes. I made them pick up bits of food to eat under my table.’ The Israelites took King Adoni-Bezek back to Jerusalem. He died there.
