Judges 6:2-5

2The 1powerH3027 of MidianH4080 prevailedH5810 againstH5921 IsraelH3478. BecauseH4480H6440 of MidianH4080 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 madeH6213 for themselves 2the 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 3goH5927 againstH5921 them.

4So they would campH2583 againstH5921 them and 4destroyH7843 the produceH2981 of the earthH776 5as farH5704H935 as GazaH5804, and 6leaveH7604 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 7like locustsH697 for numberH7230, both they and their camelsH1581 were innumerableH369H4557; and they cameH935 into the landH776 to devastateH7843 it.
