*
Then the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the LORD .
So the LORD delivered them into the hand of Midian for seven years ,
*
and the hand of Midian prevailed against Israel .
Because of the Midianites ,
the children of Israel made for themselves the dens ,
the caves ,
and the strongholds which are in the mountains .
*
So it was ,
whenever Israel had sown ,
Midianites would come up ;
also Amalekites and the people of the East would come up against them .
*
Then they would encamp against them and destroy the produce of the earth as far as Gaza ,
and leave no sustenance for Israel ,
neither sheep nor ox nor donkey .
*
For they would come up with their livestock and their tents ,
coming in as numerous as locusts ;
both they and their camels were without number ;
and they would enter the land to destroy it .
*
So Israel was greatly impoverished because of the Midianites ,
and the children of Israel cried out to the LORD .
