Judges 8:24 in Context — Judges 8

22 E os israelitas disseram a Gideão: Sê nosso senhor, tu, e teu filho, e teu neto; pois que nos livraste da mão de Midiã.

23 Mas Gideão respondeu: Não serei senhor sobre vós, nem meu filho vos dominará: o SENHOR será vosso Senhor.

24 E disse-lhes Gideão: Desejo fazer-vos uma petição, que cada um me dê os pendentes de seu despojo. (Porque traziam pendentes de ouro, que eram ismaelitas.)

25 E eles responderam: De boa vontade os daremos. E segurando uma roupa de vestir, lançou ali cada um os pendentes de seu despojo.

26 E foi o peso dos pendentes de ouro que ele pediu mil e setecentos siclos de ouro; sem contar os ornamentos, e as joias, e vestidos de púrpura, que traziam os reis de Midiã, e sem os colares que traziam seus camelos ao pescoço.
