← Judges 8:21	Judges 8:22 (KJV)	Judges 8:23 →
Then Zebah and Zalmunna said, Rise thou, and fall upon us: for as the man [is, so is] his strength. And Gideon arose, and slew Zebah and Zalmunna, and took away the ornaments that [were] on their camels' necks.	Then the men of Israel said unto Gideon, Rule thou over us, both thou, and thy son, and thy son's son also: for thou hast delivered us from the hand of Midian.	And Gideon said unto them, I will not rule over you, neither shall my son rule over you: the LORD shall rule over you.
