Judges 1:4-7

Judges 1:4-7 TPT

When Judah advanced, YAHWEH gave them victory over the Canaanites and Perizzites, and they defeated ten thousand men at Bezek. They encountered King Adoni-Bezek fleeing with his army on the battlefield. They pursued him, captured him, and defeated the Canaanites and Perizzites. Then they cut off Adoni-Bezek’s thumbs and big toes. Adoni-Bezek confessed, “I once had seventy kings picking up scraps under my table with their thumbs and big toes cut off. Now God has paid me back for what I did to them!” They took him captive to Jerusalem, where he died.
