Judges 6:1-6
1Then the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 1didH6213 whatH7451 was evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LordH3068; and the LordH3068 gaveH5414 them into the handsH3027 of 2MidianH4080 sevenH7651 yearsH8141. 2The 3powerH3027 of MidianH4080 prevailedH5810 againstH5921 IsraelH3478. BecauseH4480H6440 of MidianH4080 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 madeH6213 for themselves 4the densH4492 whichH834 were in the mountainsH2022 and the cavesH4631 and the strongholdsH4679. 3For it was whenH518 IsraelH3478 had sownH2232, that the MidianitesH4080 would comeH5927 up with the AmalekitesH6002 and the sonsH1121 of the eastH6924 and 5goH5927 againstH5921 them. 4So they would campH2583 againstH5921 them and 6destroyH7843 the produceH2981 of the earthH776 7as farH5704H935 as GazaH5804, and 8leaveH7604 noH3808 sustenanceH4241 in IsraelH3478 as well as no sheepH7716, oxH7794, or donkeyH2543. 5For they would comeH5927 up with their livestockH4735 and their tentsH168, they would comeH5927 in 9like locustsH697 for numberH7230, both they and their camelsH1581 were innumerableH369H4557; and they cameH935 into the landH776 to devastateH7843 it. 6So IsraelH3478 was broughtH1809 10veryH3966 lowH1809 becauseH4480H6440 of MidianH4080, and the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 criedH2199 to the LordH3068.
