And the men H376 NMS of Ephraim H669 said H559 W-VQY3MP unto H413 PREP-3MS him , Why H4100 IGAT hast thou served H6213 VQQ2MS us thus H2088 D-PMS , that thou calledst H7121 us not H1115 L-NPAR , when H3588 CONJ thou wentest H1980 to fight H3898 with the Midianites H4080 ? And they did chide H7378 with H854 PREP-3MS him sharply H2394 .
And he said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP-3MP them , What H4100 IPRO have I done H6213 VQQ1MS now H6258 ADV in comparison of you ? [ Is ] not H3808 D-NPAR the gleaning of the grapes H5955 of Ephraim H669 better H2896 AMS than the vintage H1210 of Abi H44 - ezer ?
God H430 EDP hath delivered H5414 VQQ3MS into your hands H3027 B-CFS-2MP the princes H8269 CMP of Midian H4080 , Oreb H6159 and Zeeb H2062 : and what H4100 W-IPRO was I able H3201 to do H6213 VQFC in comparison of you ? Then H227 ADV their anger H7307 was abated H7503 toward H5921 him , when he had said H1696 that H2088 D-PMS .
And Gideon H1439 came H935 W-VQY3MS to Jordan H3383 , [ and ] passed over H5674 , he H1931 PPRO-3MS , and the three H7969 W-BFS hundred H3967 BFP men H376 D-NMS that H834 RPRO [ were ] with H854 PREP-3MS him , faint H5889 , yet pursuing H7291 [ them ] .
And he said H559 W-VQY3MS unto the men H376 of Succoth H5523 , Give H5414 , I pray you H4994 IJEC , loaves H3603 of bread H3899 NMS unto the people H5971 that H834 RPRO follow H7272 me ; for H3588 CONJ they H1992 PPRO-3MP [ be ] faint H5889 , and I H595 W-PPRO-1MS am pursuing H7291 after H310 PREP Zebah H2078 and Zalmunna H6759 , kings H4428 CMP of Midian H4080 .
And the princes H8269 CMP of Succoth H5523 said H559 W-VQY3MS , [ Are ] the hands H3709 of Zebah H2078 and Zalmunna H6759 now H6258 ADV in thine hand H3027 B-CFS-2MS , that H3588 CONJ we should give H5414 bread H3899 NMS unto thine army H6635 ?
And Gideon H1439 said H559 W-VQY3MS , Therefore H3651 L-ADV when the LORD H3068 EDS hath delivered H5414 Zebah H2078 and Zalmunna H6759 into mine hand H3027 B-CFS-1MS , then I will tear H1758 your flesh H1320 with H854 PREP the thorns H6975 of the wilderness H4057 D-NMS and with H854 W-PART briers H1303 .
And he went up H5927 W-VHY3MS thence H8033 M-ADV to Penuel H6439 , and spoke H1696 W-VPY3MS unto H413 PREP-3MP them likewise H2063 : and the men H376 CMP of Penuel H6439 answered H6030 him as H834 K-RPRO the men H376 CMP of Succoth H5523 had answered H6030 VQQ3MP [ him ] .
And he spoke H559 W-VQY3MS also H1571 CONJ unto the men H376 of Penuel H6439 , saying H559 W-VQY3MS , When I come again H7725 in peace H7965 , I will break down H5422 this H2088 D-PMS tower H4026 D-NMS .
Now Zebah H2078 and Zalmunna H6759 [ were ] in Karkor H7174 , and their hosts H4264 with H5973 PREP-3MP them , about fifteen H2568 thousand H505 W-BMS [ men ] , all H3605 NMS that were left H3498 of all H3605 NMS the hosts H4264 of the children H1121 CMP of the east H6924 NMS : for there fell H5307 a hundred H3967 MFS and twenty H6242 W-MMP thousand H505 W-BMS men H376 NMS that drew H8025 sword H2719 GFS .
And Gideon H1439 went up H5927 W-VHY3MS by the way H1870 NMS of them that dwelt H7931 in tents H168 on the east H6924 M-NMS of Nobah H5025 and Jogbehah H3011 , and smote H5221 W-VHY3MS the host H4264 : for the host H4264 was H1961 VQQ3MS secure H983 .
And when Zebah H2078 and Zalmunna H6759 fled H5127 , he pursued H7291 W-VQY3MS after H310 them , and took H3920 the two H8147 ONUM kings H4428 CMP of Midian H4080 , Zebah H2078 and Zalmunna H6759 , and discomfited H2729 all H3605 W-CMS the host H4264 .
And caught H3920 a young man H5288 of the men H376 NMS of Succoth H5523 , and inquired H7592 of him : and he described H3789 unto H413 PREP-3MS him the princes H8269 CMP of Succoth H5523 , and the elders H2205 thereof , [ even ] threescore and seventeen H7657 ONUM men H376 NMS .
And he came H935 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP the men H376 CMP of Succoth H5523 , and said H559 W-VQY3MS , Behold H2009 IJEC Zebah H2078 and Zalmunna H6759 , with whom H834 RPRO ye did upbraid H2778 me , saying H559 W-VQY3MS , [ Are ] the hands H3709 of Zebah H2078 and Zalmunna H6759 now H6258 ADV in thine hand H3027 B-CFS-2MS , that H3588 CONJ we should give H5414 bread H3899 NMS unto thy men H376 [ that ] [ are ] weary H3287 ?
And he took H3947 W-VQY3MS the elders H2205 of the city H5892 D-GFS , and thorns H6975 of the wilderness H4057 D-NMS and briers H1303 , and with them he taught H3045 the men H376 CMP of Succoth H5523 .
Then said H559 W-VQY3MS he unto H413 PREP Zebah H2078 and Zalmunna H6759 , What manner H375 IGAT of men H376 D-NMP [ were ] [ they ] whom H834 RPRO ye slew H2026 at Tabor H8396 ? And they answered H559 W-VQY3MS , As thou H3644 PREP-2MS [ art ] , so [ were ] they ; each one H259 MMS resembled H8389 the children H1121 of a king H4428 .
And he said H559 W-VQY3MS , They H1992 PPRO-3MP [ were ] my brethren H251 NMP-1MS , [ even ] the sons H1121 of my mother H517 CFS-1MS : [ as ] the LORD H3068 EDS liveth H2416 AMS , if H3863 CONJ ye had saved them alive H2421 , I would not H3808 NADV slay H2026 VQQ1MS you .
And he said H559 W-VQY3MS unto Jether H3500 his firstborn H1060 , Up H6965 VQI2MS , [ and ] slay H2026 them . But the youth H5288 drew H8025 VQQ3MS not H3808 W-NPAR his sword H2719 : for H3588 CONJ he feared H3372 VQQ3MS , because H3588 CONJ he [ was ] yet H5750 a youth H5288 .
Then Zebah H2078 and Zalmunna H6759 said H559 W-VQY3MS , Rise H6965 VQI2MS thou H859 PPRO-2MS , and fall H6293 upon us : for H3588 CONJ as the man H376 [ is , ] [ so ] [ is ] his strength H1369 . And Gideon H1439 arose H6965 W-VQY3MS , and slew H2026 Zebah H2078 and Zalmunna H6759 , and took away H3947 W-VQY3MS the ornaments H7720 that H834 RPRO [ were ] on their camels H1581 \' necks H6677 .
Then the men H376 NMS of Israel H3478 said H559 W-VQY3MP unto H413 PREP Gideon H1439 , Rule H4910 thou over us , both H1571 CONJ thou H859 PPRO-2MS , and H1571 CONJ thy son H1121 , and thy son H1121 \'s son H1121 also H1571 CONJ : for H3588 CONJ thou hast delivered H3467 us from the hand H3027 M-GFS of Midian H4080 .
And Gideon H1439 said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP-3MS them , I H589 PPRO-1MS will not H3808 ADV rule H4910 over you , neither H3808 ADV shall my son H1121 NMS-1MS rule H4910 over you : the LORD H3068 EDS shall rule H4910 over you .
And Gideon H1439 said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP-3MS them , I would desire H7592 a request H7596 of H4480 M-PPRO-2MS you , that ye would give H5414 me every man H376 NMS the earrings H5141 CMS of his prey H7998 . ( CONJ For CONJ they had golden H2091 NMS earrings H5141 , because H3588 CONJ they H1992 [ were ] Ishmaelites H3459 . )
And they answered H559 W-VQY3MP , We will willingly give H5414 [ them ] . And they spread H6566 a garment H8071 D-NFS , and did cast H7993 therein H8033 ADV-3FS every man H376 NMS the earrings H5141 CMS of his prey H7998 .
And the weight H4948 of the golden H2091 earrings H5141 that H834 RPRO he requested H7592 was H1961 W-VQY3MS a thousand H505 W-BMS and seven H7651 W-BFS hundred H3967 BFP [ shekels ] of gold H2091 NMS ; beside H905 ornaments H7720 , and collars H5188 , and purple H713 raiment H899 W-CMP that [ was ] on the kings H4428 CMP of Midian H4080 , and beside H905 the chains H6060 that H834 RPRO [ were ] about their camels H1581 \' necks H6677 .
And Gideon H1439 made H6213 W-VQY3MS an ephod H646 thereof , and put H3322 it in his city H5892 , [ even ] in Ophrah H6084 : and all H3605 Israel H3478 went thither a whoring H2181 after H310 PREP-3MS it : which thing became H1961 W-VQY3MS a snare H4170 unto Gideon H1439 , and to his house H1004 .
Thus was Midian H4080 subdued H3665 before H6440 L-CMP the children H1121 of Israel H3478 , so that they lifted up H5375 their heads H7218 no H3808 W-NPAR more H3254 . And the country H776 D-GFS was in quietness H8252 forty H705 MMP years H8141 NFS in the days H3117 B-CMP of Gideon H1439 .
And Gideon H1439 had H1961 VQQ3MP threescore and ten H7657 ONUM sons H1121 NMP of his body H3409 begotten H3318 VQCMP : for H3588 CONJ he had H1961 VQQ3MP many H7227 AFP wives H802 GFP .
And his concubine H6370 that H834 RPRO [ was ] in Shechem H7927 , she H1931 PPRO-3FS also H1571 CONJ bore H3205 VQQ3FS him a son H1121 NMS , whose name H8034 CMS-3MS he called H7760 W-VQY3MS Abimelech H40 .
And Gideon H1439 the son H1121 of Joash H3101 died H4191 W-VQY3MS in a good H2896 NFS old age H7872 , and was buried H6912 in the sepulcher H6913 of Joash H3101 his father H1 CMS-3MS , in Ophrah H6084 of the Abi H33 - ezrites .
And it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS , as soon as H834 Gideon H1439 was dead H4191 , that the children H1121 of Israel H3478 turned again H7725 , and went a whoring H2181 after H310 PREP Baalim H1168 , and made H7760 W-VQY3MP Baal H1170 - berith their god H430 L-NMP .
And the children H1121 of Israel H3478 remembered H2142 not H3808 W-NPAR the LORD H3068 EDS their God H430 , who had delivered H5337 them out of the hands H3027 M-GFS of all H3605 NMS their enemies H341 on every side H5439 :
Neither H3808 W-NPAR showed H6213 VQQ3MP they kindness H2617 NMS to H5973 PREP the house H1004 CMS of Jerubbaal H3378 , [ namely ] , Gideon H1439 , according to all H3605 the goodness H2896 which H834 RPRO he had showed H6213 VQQ3MS unto H5973 PREP Israel H3478 LMS .
