Gideon tells them they even killed his brothers:

Judges 8:18 ...even the sons of my mother
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77480875


Then proceeded to issue an indictment: if you'd spared them, I wouldn't kill you - but you showed no mercy.

Judges 8:19...as the Lord liveth, if ye had saved them alive, I would not slay you.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77490626


When Gideon commanded his first son to slay them - he refused because he was afraid.

Zebah and Zalmunna told Gideon it was his duty to do so, and Gideon complied:

Judges 8:20 And he said unto Jether his firstborn, Up, and slay them. But the youth drew not his sword: for he feared, because he was yet a youth.

21 Then Zebah and Zalmunna said, Rise thou, and fall upon us: for as the man is, so is his strength. And Gideon arose, and slew Zebah and Zalmunna, and took away the ornaments that were on their camels' necks.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77493695


According to biblehub - these ornaments around the camels neck were "little moons," crescent-shaped ornaments of gold and silver, still in common use to decorate animals.

Some have thought that these were worn in honour of Astarte, or the moon, the goddess of the Phoenicians, from whom these people had borrowed that idolatry.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77499144


Judges 8:22 Then the men of Israel said unto Gideon, Rule thou over us, both thou, and thy son, and thy son's son also: for thou hast delivered us from the hand of Midian
