LEB(i)
2 The hand of the Midianites* prevailed over Israel; because of the presence of the Midianites,* the ⌊Israelites⌋* made for themselves hiding places that were in the mountains, caves, and strongholds.
3 And whenever Israel sowed seed, the Midianites,* Amalekites,* and the people of the east would come up against them.
4 They would camp against them and destroy the produce of the land ⌊as far as⌋* Gaza; they left no produce in Israel, or sheep, ox, or donkey.
5 For they, their livestock, and their tents would come up like a great number of locusts; they and their camels could not be counted; they came into the land and devoured it.
6 Israel was very poor because of the presence of the Midianites,* and the ⌊Israelites⌋* cried out to Yahweh.
