KJV_Strongs(i)
  1 H376 And the men H669 of Ephraim H559 said [H8799]   H4100 unto him, Why hast thou H6213 served [H8804]   H1697 us thus H7121 , that thou calledst [H8800]   H1980 us not, when thou wentest [H8804]   H3898 to fight [H8736]   H4080 with the Midianites H7378 ? And they did chide [H8799]   H2394 with him sharply.
  2 H559 And he said [H8799]   H6213 unto them, What have I done [H8804]   H5955 now in comparison of you? Is not the gleaning H669 of the grapes of Ephraim H2896 better H1210 than the vintage H44 of Abiezer?
  3 H430 God H5414 hath delivered [H8804]   H3027 into your hands H8269 the princes H4080 of Midian H6159 , Oreb H2062 and Zeeb H3201 : and what was I able [H8804]   H6213 to do [H8800]   H7307 in comparison of you? Then their anger H7503 was abated [H8804]   H1697 toward him, when he had said H1696 that [H8763]  .
  4 H1439 And Gideon H935 came [H8799]   H3383 to Jordan H5674 , and passed over [H8802]   H7969 , he, and the three H3967 hundred H376 men H5889 that were with him, faint H7291 , yet pursuing [H8802]   them .
  5 H559 And he said [H8799]   H582 unto the men H5523 of Succoth H5414 , Give [H8798]   H3603 , I pray you, loaves H3899 of bread H5971 unto the people H7272 that follow H5889 me; for they be faint H7291 , and I am pursuing [H8802]   H310 after H2078 Zebah H6759 and Zalmunna H4428 , kings H4080 of Midian.
  6 H8269 And the princes H5523 of Succoth H559 said [H8799]   H3709 , Are the hands H2078 of Zebah H6759 and Zalmunna H3027 now in thine hand H5414 , that we should give [H8799]   H3899 bread H6635 unto thine army?
  7 H1439 And Gideon H559 said [H8799]   H3068 , Therefore when the LORD H5414 hath delivered [H8800]   H2078 Zebah H6759 and Zalmunna H3027 into mine hand H1758 , then I will tear [H8804]   H1320 your flesh H6975 with the thorns H4057 of the wilderness H1303 and with briers.
  8 H5927 And he went up [H8799]   H6439 thence to Penuel H1696 , and spake [H8762]   H2063 unto them likewise H582 : and the men H6439 of Penuel H6030 answered [H8799]   H582 him as the men H5523 of Succoth H6030 had answered [H8804]   him .
  9 H559 And he spake [H8799]   H582 also unto the men H6439 of Penuel H559 , saying [H8800]   H7725 , When I come again [H8800]   H7965 in peace H5422 , I will break down [H8799]   H4026 this tower.
  10 H2078 Now Zebah H6759 and Zalmunna H7174 were in Karkor H4264 , and their hosts H2568 with them, about fifteen H6240   H505 thousand H3498 men, all that were left [H8737]   H4264 of all the hosts H1121 of the children H6924 of the east H5307 : for there fell [H8802]   H3967 an hundred H6242 and twenty H505 thousand H376 men H8025 that drew [H8802]   H2719 sword.
  11 H1439 And Gideon H5927 went up [H8799]   H1870 by the way H7931 of them that dwelt [H8803]   H168 in tents H6924 on the east H5025 of Nobah H3011 and Jogbehah H5221 , and smote [H8686]   H4264 the host H4264 : for the host H983 was secure.
  12 H2078 And when Zebah H6759 and Zalmunna H5127 fled [H8799]   H7291 , he pursued [H8799]   H310 after H3920 them, and took [H8799]   H8147 the two H4428 kings H4080 of Midian H2078 , Zebah H6759 and Zalmunna H2729 , and discomfited [H8689]   H4264 all the host.
  13 H1439 And Gideon H1121 the son H3101 of Joash H7725 returned [H8799]   H4421 from battle H4608 before H2775 the sun was up,
  14 H3920 And caught [H8799]   H5288 a young man H582 of the men H5523 of Succoth H7592 , and enquired [H8799]   H3789 of him: and he described [H8799]   H8269 unto him the princes H5523 of Succoth H2205 , and the elders H7657 thereof, even threescore and seventeen H7651   H376 men.
  15 H935 And he came [H8799]   H582 unto the men H5523 of Succoth H559 , and said [H8799]   H2078 , Behold Zebah H6759 and Zalmunna H2778 , with whom ye did upbraid [H8765]   H559 me, saying [H8800]   H3709 , Are the hands H2078 of Zebah H6759 and Zalmunna H3027 now in thine hand H5414 , that we should give [H8799]   H3899 bread H582 unto thy men H3287 that are weary?
  16 H3947 And he took [H8799]   H2205 the elders H5892 of the city H6975 , and thorns H4057 of the wilderness H1303 and briers H3045 , and with them he taught [H8686]   H582 the men H5523 of Succoth.
  17 H5422 And he beat down [H8804]   H4026 the tower H6439 of Penuel H2026 , and slew [H8799]   H582 the men H5892 of the city.
  18 H559 Then said [H8799]   H2078 he unto Zebah H6759 and Zalmunna H375 , What H582 manner of men H2026 were they whom ye slew [H8804]   H8396 at Tabor H559 ? And they answered [H8799]   H3644 , As thou H259 art, so were they; each one H8389 resembled H1121 the children H4428 of a king.
  19 H559 And he said [H8799]   H251 , They were my brethren H1121 , even the sons H517 of my mother H3068 : as the LORD H2416 liveth H3863 , if H2421 ye had saved them alive [H8689]   H2026 , I would not slay [H8804]   you.
  20 H559 And he said [H8799]   H3500 unto Jether H1060 his firstborn H6965 , Up [H8798]   H2026 , and slay [H8798]   H5288 them. But the youth H8025 drew [H8804]   H2719 not his sword H3372 : for he feared [H8804]   H5288 , because he was yet a youth.
  21 H2078 Then Zebah H6759 and Zalmunna H559 said [H8799]   H6965 , Rise [H8798]   H6293 thou, and fall [H8798]   H376 upon us: for as the man H1369 is, so is his strength H1439 . And Gideon H6965 arose [H8799]   H2026 , and slew [H8799]   H2078 Zebah H6759 and Zalmunna H3947 , and took away [H8799]   H7720 the ornaments H1581 that were on their camels H6677 ' necks.
  22 H376 Then the men H3478 of Israel H559 said [H8799]   H1439 unto Gideon H4910 , Rule [H8798]   H1121 thou over us, both thou, and thy son H1121 , and thy son's H1121 son H3467 also: for thou hast delivered [H8689]   H3027 us from the hand H4080 of Midian.
  23 H1439 And Gideon H559 said [H8799]   H4910 unto them, I will not rule [H8799]   H1121 over you, neither shall my son H4910 rule [H8799]   H3068 over you: the LORD H4910 shall rule [H8799]   over you.
  24 H1439 And Gideon H559 said [H8799]   H7592 unto them, I would desire [H8799]   H7596 a request H5414 of you, that ye would give [H8798]   H376 me every man H5141 the earrings H7998 of his prey H2091 . (For they had golden H5141 earrings H3459 , because they were Ishmaelites.)
  25 H559 And they answered [H8799]   H5414 , We will willingly [H8800]   H5414 give [H8799]   H6566 them . And they spread [H8799]   H8071 a garment H7993 , and did cast [H8686]   H376 therein every man H5141 the earrings H7998 of his prey.
  26 H4948 And the weight H2091 of the golden H5141 earrings H7592 that he requested [H8804]   H505 was a thousand H7651 and seven H3967 hundred H2091 shekels of gold H7720 ; beside ornaments H5188 , and collars H713 , and purple H899 raiment H4428 that was on the kings H4080 of Midian H6060 , and beside the chains H1581 that were about their camels H6677 ' necks.
  27 H1439 And Gideon H6213 made [H8799]   H646 an ephod H3322 thereof, and put [H8686]   H5892 it in his city H6084 , even in Ophrah H3478 : and all Israel H2181 went thither a whoring [H8799]   H310 after H4170 it: which thing became a snare H1439 unto Gideon H1004 , and to his house.
  28 H4080 Thus was Midian H3665 subdued [H8735]   H6440 before H1121 the children H3478 of Israel H5375 , so that they lifted up [H8800]   H7218 their heads H3254 no more [H8804]   H776 . And the country H8252 was in quietness [H8799]   H705 forty H8141 years H3117 in the days H1439 of Gideon.
  29 H3378 And Jerubbaal H1121 the son H3101 of Joash H3212 went [H8799]   H3427 and dwelt [H8799]   H1004 in his own house.
  30 H1439 And Gideon H7657 had threescore and ten H1121 sons H3409 of his body H3318 begotten [H8802]   H7227 : for he had many H802 wives.
  31 H6370 And his concubine H7927 that was in Shechem H3205 , she also bare [H8804]   H1121 him a son H8034 , whose name H7760 he called [H8799]   H40 Abimelech.
  32 H1439 And Gideon H1121 the son H3101 of Joash H4191 died [H8799]   H2896 in a good H7872 old age H6912 , and was buried [H8735]   H6913 in the sepulchre H3101 of Joash H1 his father H6084 , in Ophrah H33 of the Abiezrites.
  33 H1439 And it came to pass, as soon as Gideon H4191 was dead [H8804]   H1121 , that the children H3478 of Israel H7725 turned again [H8799]   H2181 , and went a whoring [H8799]   H310 after H1168 Baalim H7760 , and made [H8799]   H1170 Baalberith H430 their god.
  34 H1121 And the children H3478 of Israel H2142 remembered [H8804]   H3068 not the LORD H430 their God H5337 , who had delivered [H8688]   H3027 them out of the hands H341 of all their enemies [H8802]   H5439 on every side:
  35 H6213 Neither shewed [H8804]   H2617 they kindness H1004 to the house H3378 of Jerubbaal H1439 , namely, Gideon H2896 , according to all the goodness H6213 which he had shewed [H8804]   H3478 unto Israel.
