You’ve heard the saying, “you reap what you sow”, it’s true, especially when it comes to sin. God also says, “if you live by the sword, you shall die by the sword”. Here is a perfect example of this being lived out. The king that escaped, was eventually captured. He then experienced the torture that he dished out during his lifetime. What goes around comes around. When you do good, rewards will follow. When you treat sin with no regard for God, you will reap what you sow.
When the men of Judah attacked, the Lord gave them victory over the Canaanites and Perizzites, and they killed 10,000 enemy warriors at the town of Bezek. 5 While at Bezek they encountered King Adoni-bezek and fought against him, and the Canaanites and Perizzites were defeated. 6 Adoni-bezek escaped, but the Israelites soon captured him and cut off his thumbs and big toes.7 Adoni-bezek said, “I once had seventy kings with their thumbs and big toes cut off, eating scraps from under my table. Now God has paid me back for what I did to them.” They took him to Jerusalem, and he died there.
Judges 1:4-7
