Shofetim 8:23-25

Orthodox Jewish Bible

²³ And Gid’on said unto them, I will not rule over you, neither shall beni rule over you; Hashem shall rule over you.

²⁴ And Gid’on said unto them, I would desire a request of you, that ye would give me every ish the nezem (earring) of his booty—for they had nizmei zahav (gold earrings), because they were Yishmaelim [descendents of Ishmael].

²⁵ And they answered, We will willingly give them. And they spread out a simlah (upper garment), and did cast therein every ish the nezem of his booty.
