Judges 8:18-21

18Then saidH559 he unto ZebahH2078 and ZalmunnaH6759, WhatH834 manner of menH376 were they whomH834 ye slewH2026 at TaborH8396? And they answeredH559, As thou art, soH834 were they; eachH376 one resembled the childrenH1121 of a kingH4428.

19And he saidH559, They were my brethrenH251, the sonsH1121 of my motherH517: as the LORDH3068 liveth, ifH3863 ye had saved them aliveH2416, I would notH3808 slayH2026 youH3808.

20And he saidH559 unto JetherH3500 his firstbornH1060, UpH6965, and slayH2026 them. But the youthH5288 drewH8025 notH3808 his swordH2719: for he fearedH3372, becauseH3588 he was yet a youthH5288.

21Then ZebahH2078 and ZalmunnaH6759 saidH559, RiseH6965 thou, and fallH6293 uponH6293 usH3588: for as the manH376 is, soH3947 is his strengthH1369. And GideonH1439 aroseH6965, and slewH2026 ZebahH2078 and ZalmunnaH6759, and tookH3947 the crescents that were on their camels’H1581 necksH6677.
