6 But the officials of Succoth replied, "Haven’t you already almost gotten your hands on Zebah and Zalmunna? Why should we give food to your army now?"
7 "Just for that," Gideon said, "when the Lord has handed over Zebah and Zalmunna to me, I’m going to beat your skin with desert thorns and briars!"
8 From there he went up to Penuel and made the same request. And the people of Penuel responded in the same way the people of Succoth had.
9 So he also told the people of Penuel, "When I return in victory, I’ll break down this tower!"
10 Now Zebah and Zalmunna were in Karkor with their camp, about fifteen thousand men, all the ones who were left from the easterners’ entire camp. One hundred twenty thousand armed men had fallen.
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.
