Judges 7:9 And it came to pass the same night, that the Lord said
unto him (Gideon), Arise, get thee down unto the host (the Midianites); for I have delivered it
into thine hand. 10 But if thou fear to go down, go
thou with Phurah thy servant down to the host: 11 And thou shalt hear
what they say; and afterward shall thine hands be strengthened to go
down unto the host. Then went he down with Phurah his servant unto the outside of the armed men that were in the host.
12 And the Midianites and the Amalekites and all the
children of the east lay along in the valley like grasshoppers for
multitude; and their camels were without number, as the sand by the sea
side for multitude. 13 And when Gideon was come, behold, there was a man
that told a dream unto his fellow, and said, Behold, I dreamed a dream,
and, lo, a cake of barley bread tumbled into the host of Midian, and
came unto a tent, and smote it that it fell, and overturned it, that the
tent lay along. 14 And his fellow answered and said, This is nothing
else save the sword of Gideon the son of Joash, a man of Israel: for
into his hand hath God delivered Midian, and all the host.
15 And it was so, when Gideon heard the telling of
the dream, and the interpretation thereof, that he worshipped, and
returned into the host of Israel, and said, Arise; for the Lord hath
delivered into your hand the host of Midian.
16 And he divided the three hundred men into three companies, and he put a trumpet in every man's hand, with empty pitchers, and lamps within the pitchers. 17 And he said unto them, Look on me, and do likewise: and, behold, when I come to the outside of the camp, it shall be that, as I do, so shall ye do. 18 When I blow with a trumpet, I and all that are with me, then blow ye the trumpets also on every side of all the camp, and say, The sword of the Lord, and of Gideon.
19 So Gideon, and the hundred men that were with him,
came unto the outside of the camp in the beginning of the middle watch;
and they had but newly set the watch: and they blew the trumpets, and
brake the pitchers that were in their hands. 20 And the three companies
blew the trumpets, and brake the pitchers, and held the lamps in their
left hands, and the trumpets in their right hands to blow withal: and
they cried, The sword of the Lord, and of Gideon.
21 And they stood every man in his place round about the
camp: and all the host ran, and cried, and fled. 22 And the three
hundred blew the trumpets, and the Lord set every man's sword against
his fellow, even throughout all the host: and the host fled to
Bethshittah in Zererath, and to the border of Abelmeholah, unto Tabbath.
23 And the men of Israel gathered themselves together out of Naphtali, and out of Asher, and out of all Manasseh, and pursued after the Midianites. 24 And Gideon sent messengers throughout all mount Ephraim, saying, Come down against the Midianites, and take before them the waters unto Bethbarah and Jordan. Then all the men of Ephraim gathered themselves together, and took the waters unto Bethbarah and Jordan. 25 And they took two princes of the Midianites, Oreb and Zeeb; and they slew Oreb upon the rock Oreb, and Zeeb they slew at the winepress of Zeeb, and pursued Midian, and brought the heads of Oreb and Zeeb to Gideon on the other side Jordan.
