Judges 8:14-16

Living Bible

¹⁴ There he captured a young fellow from Succoth and demanded that he write down the names of all the seventy-seven political and religious leaders of the city.

¹⁵ He then returned to Succoth. “You taunted me that I would never catch King Zebah and King Zalmunna, and you refused to give us food when we were tired and hungry,” he said. “Well, here they are!”

¹⁶ Then he took the leaders of the city and scraped them to death^[a] with wild thorns and briars.
