The answer of the princes of Succoth and of the men of Penuel when Gideon asks for loaves of bread
떡덩이를 청한 기드온에게 숙곳 방백들과 브누엘 사람들이 한 대답
Judges 8:4–9: Gideon comes to the Jordan and passes over, he and the three hundred men who were with him, faint, yet pursuing. He says to the men of Succoth, “Please give loaves of bread to the people who follow me; for they are faint, and I am pursuing after Zebah and Zalmunna, the kings of Midian.” The princes of Succoth say, “Are the hands of Zebah and Zalmunna now in your hand, that we should give bread to your army?” Gideon says, “Therefore when the LORD has delivered Zebah and Zalmunna into my hand, then I will tear your flesh with the thorns of the wilderness and with briers.” He goes up there to Penuel, and speaks to them in the same way; and the men of Penuel answer him as the men of Succoth had answered. Gideon speaks also to the men of Penuel, saying, “When I come again in peace, I will break down this tower.”
