Hakim-hakim 8:21

8:21 Zebah and Zalmunna said to Gideon, ⁵  “Come on, ⁶  you strike us, for a man is judged by his strength.” ⁷  So Gideon killed ⁸  Zebah and Zalmunna, and he took the crescent-shaped ornaments which were on the necks of their camels.

[6:5]  ² tn Heb “numerous.”

[6:5]  ³ tn Heb “To them and to their camels there was no number.”

[8:21]  ⁷ tn Heb “for as the man is his strength.”
