Judges 1:5-7

Contemporary English Version

^4-5 Together they attacked an army of 10,000 Canaanites and Perizzites at Bezek, and the Lord helped Judah defeat them. During the battle, Judah's army found out where the king of Bezek^[a] was, and they attacked there. ⁶ The king tried to escape, but soldiers from Judah caught him. They cut off his thumbs and big toes, ⁷ and he said, “I've cut off the thumbs and big toes of 70 kings and made those kings crawl around under my table for scraps of food. Now God is paying me back.”

The army of Judah took the king of Bezek along with them to Jerusalem, where he died.
