13 Then they that remain have dominion over the mighty of the people: the Lord hath given me dominion over the string.

Again the victory is by a comparison amplified, not as it was before, with the evils and discommodities wherewith the Israelites were oppressed, but the conquerors are very aptly compared with them which were overcome. They which were overcome were undoubtedly of great renown, valiant, expert in wars, & noble, but our men seem to be like remnants, for few came unto the battle and those few were of few tribes. Besides that those few which came were men despised and of no reputation. For that commonly such are remnants, namely to be both small in number, and also vile and abject, if it be compared with other, whose remnant they are. Howbeit these remnants, what manner of men so ever they were, they had the dominion, and were governors over the noble men.
Agayne the victory is by a comparison amplified, not as it was before, with the euils and discommodities wherwith the Israelites were oppressed, but the conquerers are very aptly copared with thē which were ouercome. They which were ouercome wer vndoubtedly of great renowme, valeant, expert in warres, & noble, but our men seme to be like remnants, for fewe came vnto the battayle and those fewe were of fewe tribes. Besides that those few whiche came were men despised and of no reputation. For that commonly suche are remnātes, namely to be both small in number, and also vile and abiecte, if it be compared with other, whose remnant they are. Howbeit these remnantes, what maner of men so euer they were, they had the dominion, and were gouerners ouer the noble men.
