Crescent-moon-shaped ornaments

Judges 8:1-21
Gideon went up by the route of the nomads(游牧民族) east of Nobah and Jogbehah and attacked the unsuspecting(毫無防備的) army. He pursued them and capture them, routing(verb,擊潰) their entire army.
As is the man, so is his strength.
Gideon took the oraments off Zebah and Zalmunna camels' necks
Crescent-moon-shaped ornaments are still popular among Arab peoples today. The Bible mentions them only here and in Isaiah.
People lived in Scooth and Peniel refused to help Gideon, so they were be punished after Gideon came back from battle.
Why?
Brave are Gideon and his 300 men, attacked fifteen thousand entire army.
As is the man, so is his strength. As strong and brave is Gideon so he has trength to kill his enemy. As week is son of Gideon so he afraid to kill other. As evildoer is Zebah and Zalmunna, so they suffer the same consequences.
How?
Victory of fight is belong to the Lord, but all the plunder are belong to God either.
