Judges 8:17-19

Living Bible

¹⁷ He also went to Penuel and knocked down the city tower and killed the entire male population.

¹⁸ Then Gideon asked King Zebah and King Zalmunna, “The men you killed at Tabor—what were they like?”

They replied, “They were dressed just like you—like sons of kings!”

¹⁹ “They must have been my brothers!” Gideon exclaimed. “I swear that if you hadn’t killed them I wouldn’t kill you.”
