And Adonibezek said, Threescore and ten kings, having their thumbs and their great toes cut off, gathered their meat under my table: as I have done, so God hath requited me. And they brought him to Jerusalem, and there he died.
Y Adoni-bezec dijo: 'Setenta reyes con sus pulgares y dedos gordos de los pies cortados recogían migajas debajo de mi mesa. Ahora Dios me ha pagado conforme a lo que yo les hice.' Lo llevaron a Jerusalén, y allí murió.
Adoni-bezec reconoció que Dios le dio el mismo castigo que él había dado a otros reyes.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the time of the Judges, after Joshua's death, the Israelites were engaged in conquering the land of Canaan as part of God's promise to give it to them. Adonibezek, a Canaanite king, had previously captured and mutilated seventy other kings by cutting off their thumbs and big toes, a brutal practice that left them disabled and dependent, symbolizing his dominance. When the Israelites defeated him in battle, they subjected him to the same treatment, and he acknowledged it as divine justice before his death in Jerusalem.
