15 And he came unto the men of Succoth, and said, Behold Zebah, and Zalmunna, by whom ye upbraided me, saying, Are the hands of Zebah, and Zalmunna already in thine hands, that we should give bread unto thy weary men?
16 Then he took the Elders of the city, and thorns of the wilderness and briers, and [a]did tear the men of Succoth with them.
17 Also he brake down the tower of (A)Penuel, and slew the men of the city.

New International Version
15 Then Gideon came and said to the men of Sukkoth, “Here are Zebah and Zalmunna, about whom you taunted me by saying, ‘Do you already have the hands of Zebah and Zalmunna in your possession? Why should we give bread to your exhausted men?(A)’” 16 He took the elders of the town and taught the men of Sukkoth a lesson(B) by punishing them with desert thorns and briers. 17 He also pulled down the tower of Peniel(C) and killed the men of the town.(D)
