Judges 8:23-26
-
23 And Gideon said unto them, I will not rule over you, neither shall my son rule over you: the LORD shall rule over you.
-
24 And Gideon said unto them, I would desire a request of you, that ye would give me every man the earrings of his prey. (For they had golden earrings, because they were Ishmaelites.)
-
25 And they answered, We will willingly give them. And they spread a garment, and did cast therein every man the earrings of his prey.
-
26 And the weight of the golden earrings that he requested was a thousand and seven hundred shekels of gold; beside ornaments, and collars, and purple raiment that was on the kings of Midian, and beside the chains that were about their camels' necks.
