13Then GideonH1439 the sonH1121 of JoashH3060 returnedH7725 from the battleH4421 1by the ascentH4608 of HeresH2776.

14And he capturedH3920 a youthH5288 from 2SuccothH5523 and questionedH7592 him. Then the youth wroteH3789 downH3789 for him the leadersH8269 of SuccothH5523 and its eldersH2205, seventy-sevenH7657 menH376.

15And he cameH935 to the menH376 of SuccothH5523 and saidH559, “BeholdH2009 ZebahH2078 and ZalmunnaH6759, about whomH834 you tauntedH2778 me, sayingH559, ‘34Are the handsH3709 of ZebahH2078 and ZalmunnaH6759 alreadyH6258 in your handH3027, that we should giveH5414 breadH3899 to your menH376 who are wearyH3287?’”
