And he took the elders of the city, and thorns of the wilderness and briers, and with them he taught the men of Succoth.

Then he took the responsible men of the town and had them crushed on a bed of thorns and sharp stems.

Και ελαβε τους πρεσβυτερους της πολεως και τας ακανθας της ερημου και τους τριβολους, και επαιδευσε με αυτα τους ανδρας της Σοκχωθ.

And he took the elders of the city, and thorns of the wilderness and briers, and with them he taught the men of Succoth.
