@brday . . . midori 0.5.11-ds1-2~bpo8+1 is available in backports.  Add this to your sources.list, download midori and then disable that repository as upgrading everything from backports is _not a good idea_.

http://us.mirror.devuan.org/merged/ jessie-backports main contrib non-free

Then the above commands will be able to find midori.

@brday  -- just in case -- once you add the above mentioned repository to your /etc/apt/sources.list
do a [sudo ] apt-get update   then do the [sudo] apt-get install midori
apt or apt-get will both work - [sudo] means whichever option you use from @fungus
then as per @golinux - remove the 'backports' from the sources.list  [or just '#' it out ]
'
thanks golinux for the 'backports' info
