11 Gideon marched up the caravan road east of Nobah and Jogbehah, and attacked the camp while it was off-guard.
12 Zebah and Zalmunna fled, and he chased after them. He captured the two Midianite kings Zebah and Zalmunna and threw the entire army into panic.
13 Then Gideon, Joash’s son, returned from the battle by the Heres Pass.
14 He captured a young man from the people of Succoth and interrogated him. He listed for Gideon the seventy-seven officials and elders of Succoth.
15 So Gideon went to the people of Succoth and said, "Here are Zebah and Zalmunna! You made fun of me because of them by saying, ‘Haven’t you already almost gotten your hands on Zebah and Zalmunna? Why should we give food to your exhausted men now?’"
16 Then he seized the city’s elders, and he beat the people of Succoth with desert thorns and briars.
17 He also broke down Penuel’s tower, and killed the city’s people.
