And they encamped against them, and destroyed the increase of the earth, till thou come unto Gaza, and left no sustenance for Israel, neither sheep, nor ox, nor ass.

Verse 4 is found in chapter 6 of Judges. Israel again does evil, and Midian repeatedly invades the land, destroying crops and impoverishing the people. Israel cries out to the Lord, but before raising up Gideon, God sends a prophet who recalls the deliverance from Egypt and accuses Israel of disobedience. The divine response shows that the spiritual problem must be identified before military deliverance arrives.

und lagerten sich wider sie und verderbten das Gewächs auf dem Lande bis hinan gen Gaza und ließen nichts übrig von Nahrung in Israel, weder Schafe noch Ochsen noch Esel.
Y asentando campo contra ellos destruían los frutos de la tierra, hasta llegar a Gaza; y no dejaban qué comer en Israel, ni ovejas, ni bueyes, ni asnos.
Acampaban contra ellos y destruían la cosecha de la tierra hasta llegar a Gaza. No dejaban alimento en Israel, ni ovejas, ni bueyes, ni burros.
Ils campaient en face de lui, détruisaient les productions du pays jusque vers Gaza, et ne laissaient en Israël ni vivres, ni brebis, ni boeufs, ni ânes.
E, fatto campo sopra gl’Israeliti, guastavano i frutti della terra fino a Gaza; e non lasciavano in Israele nè vittuaglia, nè pecore, nè buoi, nè asini.
E punham-se contra ele em campo, e destruíam os frutos da terra, até chegarem a Gaza; e não deixavam mantimento em Israel, nem ovelhas, nem bois, nem jumentos.
對著他們安營,毀壞那地的農作物,直到 迦薩 ,沒有給 以色列 留下食物,牛、羊、驢也沒有留下。
