Judges 6:2-4

Evangelical Heritage Version

² The hand of Midian was heavy upon Israel. Because of Midian, the people of Israel made hidden shelters^[a] for themselves, in the mountains, in caves, and other hideouts. ³ Whenever Israel planted crops, Midian and Amalek and the people of the East^[b] would go up against Israel. ⁴ They would set up camp against them and ruin the crops all the way to Gaza, so there was no source of livelihood left in Israel—not even a sheep, an ox, or a donkey.
