Judges 8:23-25

Revised Geneva Translation

²³ And Gideon said to them, “I will not reign over you. Nor shall my child reign over you. The LORD shall reign over you.”

²⁴ Again, Gideon said to them, “I would ask a request of you: that you would give me the earrings from each man’s plunder (for they had golden earrings because they were Ishmaelites).”

²⁵ And they answered, “We will give them.” And they spread a garment and cast in the earrings from each man’s plunder.
