Judges 8:21

And Zebah and Zalmunna said [to Gideon], "Get up and fall upon us—for as the man is, so is his strength." And Gideon got up and struck [killed] Zebah and Zalmunna and took the moon pendants from the necks of their camels. [The Hebrew word saharon means "small moons" and is the name of a neck ornament worn by men and women, but also by decorated camels (Judg. 8:26; Isaiah 3:18). Presumably, there was gold in the adornments worn by their camels. Verses 25-26 mention that the camels' necklaces were made of gold.]
