Gideon said, &#8220;Since you will not help,<n id="1" /> after the <sc>Lordsc> hands Zebah and Zalmunna over to me, I will thresh<n id="2" /> your skin<n id="3" /> with<n id="4" /> desert thorns and briers.&#8221;

<p class="bodytext">Moses said, &#8220;You will know this<n id="1" /> when the <sc>Lordsc> gives you<n id="2" /> meat to eat in the evening and bread in the morning to satisfy you, because the <sc>Lordsc> has heard your murmurings that you are murmuring against him. As for us, what are we?<n id="3" /> Your murmurings are not against us,<n id="4" /> but against the <sc>Lordsc>.&#8221;p>

Then the priest will put the woman under the oath of the curse<n id="1" /> and will say<n id="2" /> to the her, &#8220;The <sc>Lordsc> make you an attested curse<n id="3" /> among your people,<n id="4" /> if the <sc>Lordsc> makes<n id="5" /> your thigh fall away<n id="6" /> and your abdomen swell;<n id="7" />

The men said to her, &#8220;If you<n id="1" /> die, may we die too!<n id="2" /> If you do not report what we&#8217;ve been up to,<n id="3" /> then, when the <sc>Lordsc> hands the land over to us, we will show unswerving allegiance<n id="4" /> to you.&#8221;<n id="5" />p>
