Judges 1:2-7

2Adonai said, “Judah will go up. Behold, I have given the land into his hand.”

3Judah then said to his brother Simeon, “Come up with me to my allotted territory, so that we may fight against the Canaanites; and I also will go with you into your allotted territory.” So Simeon went with him.

4When Judah went up, Adonai delivered the Canaanites and the Perizzites into their hands; they struck down 10,000 of them at Bezek.

5They found Adoni-bezek in Bezek, engaged him in battle, and defeated the Canaanites and the Perizzites.

6Though Adoni-bezek fled, they pursued him, caught him, and cut off his thumbs and his big toes.

7So Adoni-bezek said, “70 kings, having their thumbs and big toes cut off, used to pick up scraps under my table. As I have done, so God has repaid me.” They brought him to Jerusalem and he died there.
