And he came unto the men of Succoth, and said, Behold Zebah and Zalmunna, with whom ye did upbraid me, saying, [Are] the hands of Zebah and Zalmunna now in thine hand, that we should give bread unto thy men [that are] weary?
Ver. 15. Behold Zebah and Zalmunna, with whom ye did upbraid me.] Men may utter such words in the pride of their spirits, as may afterwards be driven down their throats. Cave ne lingua feriat guttur, saith the Arabian, Take heed thy tongue cut not thy throat.
