Judges 8:13-16

13Gideon, son of Joash, returned from the battle through the Heres Pass

14and captured a young man from Succoth. He questioned him, and the young man wrote down for him the names of the 77 officials and leaders of Succoth.

15Gideon went to the men of Succoth and said, “Here are Zebah and Zalmunna! You insulted me when you said, ‘We shouldn’t give your exhausted men food before you’ve captured Zebah and Zalmunna.’ ”

16So Gideon took the leaders of the city and taught them a lesson using thorns and thistles from the desert.
