| 6 | The princes of Succoth said, Are the hands of Zebah and Zalmunna now in your hand, that we should give bread to your army? | Jg 5:23 Gn 25:13 Gn 37:25 Gn 37:28 1Sa 25:10 1Sa 25:11 1Ki 20:11 2Ki 14:9 Pr 18:23 Php 2:21 |
| 7 | Gideon said, Therefore when Yahweh has delivered Zebah and Zalmunna into my hand, then I will tear your flesh with the thorns of the wilderness and with briers. |
| 8 | He went up there to Penuel, and spoke to them in like manner; and the men of Penuel answered him as the men of Succoth had answered. | Gn 32:30 Gn 32:31 1Ki 12:25 |
| 9 | He spoke also to the men of Penuel, saying, When I come again in peace, I will break down this tower. | 1Ki 22:27 1Ki 22:28 |
| 10 | Now Zebah and Zalmunna were in Karkor, and their hosts with them, about fifteen thousand men, all who were left of all the host of the children of the east; for there fell one hundred twenty thousand men who drew sword. | Jg 7:12 |

| 13 | Gideon the son of Joash returned from the battle from the ascent of Heres. |
| 14 | He caught a young man of the men of Succoth, and inquired of him: and he described for him the princes of Succoth, and the elders of it, seventy-seven men. | Jg 1:24 Jg 1:25 1Sa 30:11-15 |
| 15 | He came to the men of Succoth, and said, See Zebah and Zalmunna, concerning whom you did taunt me, saying, Are the hands of Zebah and Zalmunna now in your hand, that we should give bread to your men who are weary? | Jg 8:6 Jg 8:7 |
| 16 | He took the elders of the city, and thorns of the wilderness and briers, and with them he taught the men of Succoth. | Jg 8:7 Pr 10:13 Pr 19:29 Ezr 2:6 |
| 17 | He broke down the tower of Penuel, and killed the men of the city. | Jg 8:9 1Ki 12:25 |
| 18 | Then said he to Zebah and Zalmunna, What manner of men were they whom you killed at Tabor? They answered, As you are, so were they; each one resembled the children of a king. | Jg 4:6 Ps 89:12 |
| 19 | He said, They were my brothers, the sons of my mother: as Yahweh lives, if you had saved them alive, I would not kill you. |
| 20 | He said to Jether his firstborn, Up, and kill them. But the youth didn`t draw his sword; for he feared, because he was yet a youth. | Jsh 10:24 1Sa 15:33 Ps 149:9 |
| 21 | Then Zebah and Zalmunna said, Rise you, and fall on us; for as the man is, so is his strength. Gideon arose, and killed Zebah and Zalmunna, and took the crescents that were on their camels` necks. | Jg 9:54 1Sa 31:3 1Sa 31:5 Rev 9:6 |
| 22 | Then the men of Israel said to Gideon, Rule you over us, both you, and your son, and your son`s son also; for you have saved us out of the hand of Midian. | Jg 9:8-15 1Sa 8:5 1Sa 12:12 Jn 6:15 |
| 23 | Gideon said to them, I will not rule over you, neither shall my son rule over you: Yahweh shall rule over you. | Jg 2:18 Jg 10:18 Jg 11:9-11 Lk 22:24-27 2Co 1:24 1Pe 5:3 |

| 25 | They answered, We will willingly give them. They spread a garment, and did cast therein every man the ear-rings of his spoil. |
| 26 | The weight of the golden ear-rings that he requested was one thousand and seven hundred [shekels] of gold, besides the crescents, and the pendants, and the purple clothing that was on the kings of Midian, and besides the chains that were about their camels` necks. | Es 8:15 Jer 10:9 Ezk 27:7 Lk 16:19 Jn 19:2 Jn 19:5 Rev 17:4 Rev 18:12 Rev 18:16 |
| 27 | Gideon made an ephod of it, and put it in his city, even in Ophrah: and all Israel played the prostitute after it there; and it became a snare to Gideon, and to his house. | Jg 17:5 Jg 18:14 Jg 18:17 Ex 28:6-12 1Sa 23:9 1Sa 23:10 Isa 8:20 |
| 28 | So Midian was subdued before the children of Israel, and they lifted up their heads no more. The land had rest forty years in the days of Gideon. | Ps 83:9-12 Isa 9:4 Isa 10:26 |
| 29 | Jerubbaal the son of Joash went and lived in his own house. | Jg 6:32 1Sa 12:11 |
| 30 | Gideon had seventy sons conceived from his body; for he had many wives. | Jg 9:2 Jg 9:5 Jg 10:4 Jg 12:9 Jg 12:14 Gn 46:26 Ex 1:5 2Ki 10:1 |
| 31 | His concubine who was in Shechem, she also bore him a son, and he named him Abimelech. | Jg 9:1-5 Gn 16:15 Gn 22:24 |
| 32 | Gideon the son of Joash died in a good old age, and was buried in the tomb of Joash his father, in Ophrah of the Abiezrites. | Gn 15:15 Gn 25:8 Jsh 24:29 Jsh 24:30 Jb 5:26 Jb 42:17 |
| 33 | It happened, as soon as Gideon was dead, that the children of Israel turned again, and played the prostitute after the Baals, and made Baal-berith their god. | Jg 2:7-10 Jg 2:17-10 Jg 2:19-10 Jsh 24:31 2Ki 12:2 2Ch 24:17 2Ch 24:18 |
| 34 | The children of Israel didn`t remember Yahweh their God, who had delivered them out of the hand of all their enemies on every side; | Ps 78:11 Ps 78:42 Ps 106:18 Ps 106:21 Ec 12:1 Jer 2:32 |
| 35 | neither showed they kindness to the house of Jerubbaal, [who is] Gideon, according to all the goodness which he had showed to Israel. | Jg 9:5 Jg 9:16-19 Ec 9:14 Ec 9:15 |
