Judges 8:13-16

13After this, Gideon returned from the battle by way of Heres Pass.

14There he captured a young man from Succoth and demanded that he write down the names of all the seventy-seven officials and elders in the town.

15Gideon then returned to Succoth and said to the leaders, “Here are Zebah and Zalmunna. When we were here before, you taunted me, saying, ‘Catch Zebah and Zalmunna first, and then we will feed your exhausted army.’”

16Then Gideon took the elders of the town and taught them a lesson, punishing them with thorns and briers from the wilderness.
