[1]Then JerubbaalH3378, who is GideonH1439, and all the peopleH5971 that were with him, rose up earlyH7925[H8686], and pitchedH2583[H8799] beside the well of HarodH5878: so that the hostH4264 of the MidianitesH4080 were on the north sideH6828 of them, by the hillH1389 of MorehH4176, in the valleyH6010. [No book]
[2]And the LORDH3068 saidH559[H8799] unto GideonH1439, The peopleH5971 that are with thee are too manyH7227 for me to giveH5414[H8800] the MidianitesH4080 into their handsH3027, lest IsraelH3478 vauntH6286[H8691] themselves against me, sayingH559[H8800], Mine own handH3027 hath savedH3467 meH8689. [No book]
[3]Now therefore go toH4994, proclaimH7121[H8798] in the earsH241 of the peopleH5971, sayingH559[H8800], Whosoever is fearfulH3373 and afraidH2730, let him returnH7725[H8799] and depart earlyH6852[H8799] from mountH2022 GileadH1568. And there returnedH7725[H8799] of the peopleH5971 twentyH6242 and twoH8147 thousandH505; and there remainedH7604[H8738] tenH6235 thousandH505. [No book]
[4]And the LORDH3068 saidH559[H8799] unto GideonH1439, The peopleH5971 are yet too manyH7227; bring them downH3381[H8685] unto the waterH4325, and I will tryH6884[H8799] them for thee there: and it shall be, that of whom I sayH559[H8799] unto thee, This shall goH3212[H8799] with thee, the same shall goH3212[H8799] with thee; and of whomsoever I sayH559[H8799] unto thee, This shall not goH3212[H8799] with thee, the same shall not goH3212.[H8799] [No book]
[5]So he brought downH3381[H8686] the peopleH5971 unto the waterH4325: and the LORDH3068 saidH559[H8799] unto GideonH1439, Every one that lappethH3952[H8799] of the waterH4325 with his tongueH3956, as a dogH3611 lappethH3952[H8799], him shalt thou setH3322[H8686] by himself; likewise every one that boweth downH3766[H8799] upon his kneesH1290 to drinkH8354.[H8800] [No book]
[6]And the numberH4557 of them that lappedH3952[H8764], putting their handH3027 to their mouthH6310, were threeH7969 hundredH3967 menH376: but all the restH3499 of the peopleH5971 bowed downH3766[H8804] upon their kneesH1290 to drinkH8354[H8800] waterH4325. [No book]
[7]And the LORDH3068 saidH559[H8799] unto GideonH1439, By the threeH7969 hundredH3967 menH376 that lappedH3952[H8764] will I saveH3467[H8686] you, and deliverH5414[H8804] the MidianitesH4080 into thine handH3027: and let all the other peopleH5971 goH3212[H8799] every manH376 unto his placeH4725. [No book]
[8]So the peopleH5971 tookH3947[H8799] victualsH6720 in their handH3027, and their trumpetsH7782: and he sentH7971[H8765] allH376 the rest of IsraelH3478 every manH376 unto his tentH168, and retainedH2388[H8689] those threeH7969 hundredH3967 menH376: and the hostH4264 of MidianH4080 was beneath him in the valleyH6010. [No book]
[9]And it came to pass the same nightH3915, that the LORDH3068 saidH559[H8799] unto him, AriseH6965[H8798], get thee downH3381[H8798] unto the hostH4264; for I have deliveredH5414[H8804] it into thine handH3027. [No book]
[10]But if thou fearH3373 to go downH3381[H8800], goH3381 thou with PhurahH6513 thy servantH5288 downH3381[H8798] to the hostH4264: [No book]
[11]And thou shalt hearH8085[H8804] what they sayH1696[H8762]; and afterwardH310 shall thine handsH3027 be strengthenedH2388[H8799] to go downH3381[H8804] unto the hostH4264. Then went he downH3381[H8799] with PhurahH6513 his servantH5288 unto the outsideH7097 of the armed menH2571 that were in the hostH4264. [No book]
[12]And the MidianitesH4080 and the AmalekitesH6002 and all the childrenH1121 of the eastH6924 layH5307[H8802] along in the valleyH6010 like grasshoppersH697 for multitudeH7230; and their camelsH1581 were without numberH4557, as the sandH2344 by the seaH3220 sideH8193 for multitudeH7230. [No book]
[13]And when GideonH1439 was comeH935[H8799], behold, there was a manH376 that toldH5608[H8764] a dreamH2472 unto his fellowH7453, and saidH559[H8799], Behold, I dreamedH2492[H8804] a dreamH2472, and, lo, a cakeH6742[H8675][H6742] of barleyH8184 breadH3899 tumbledH2015[H8693] into the hostH4264 of MidianH4080, and cameH935[H8799] unto a tentH168, and smoteH5221[H8686] it that it fellH5307[H8799], and overturnedH2015[H8799][H4605] it, that the tentH168 lay alongH5307.[H8804] [No book]
[14]And his fellowH7453 answeredH6030[H8799] and saidH559[H8799], This is nothing else save the swordH2719 of GideonH1439 the sonH1121 of JoashH3101, a manH376 of IsraelH3478: for into his handH3027 hath GodH430 deliveredH5414[H8804] MidianH4080, and all the hostH4264. [No book]
[15]And it was so, when GideonH1439 heardH8085[H8800] the tellingH4557 of the dreamH2472, and the interpretationH7667 thereof, that he worshippedH7812[H8691], and returnedH7725[H8799] into the hostH4264 of IsraelH3478, and saidH559[H8799], AriseH6965[H8798]; for the LORDH3068 hath deliveredH5414[H8804] into your handH3027 the hostH4264 of MidianH4080. [No book]
[16]And he dividedH2673[H8799] the threeH7969 hundredH3967 menH376 into threeH7969 companiesH7218, and he putH5414[H8799] a trumpetH7782 in every man's handH3027, with emptyH7386 pitchersH3537, and lampsH3940 withinH8432 the pitchersH3537. [No book]
[17]And he saidH559[H8799] unto them, LookH7200[H8799] on me, and doH6213[H8799] likewise: and, behold, when I comeH935[H8802] to the outsideH7097 of the campH4264, it shall be that, as I doH6213[H8799], so shall ye doH6213.[H8799] [No book]
[18]When I blowH8628[H8804] with a trumpetH7782, I and all that are with me, then blowH8628[H8804] ye the trumpetsH7782 also on every sideH5439 of all the campH4264, and sayH559[H8804], The sword of the LORDH3068, and of GideonH1439. [No book]
[19]So GideonH1439, and the hundredH3967 menH376 that were with him, cameH935[H8799] unto the outsideH7097 of the campH4264 in the beginningH7218 of the middleH8484 watchH821; and they had butH389 newlyH6965[H8687] setH6965[H8689] the watchH8104[H8802]: and they blewH8628[H8799] the trumpetsH7782, and brakeH5310[H8800] the pitchersH3537 that were in their handsH3027. [No book]
[20]And the threeH7969 companiesH7218 blewH8628[H8799] the trumpetsH7782, and brakeH7665[H8799] the pitchersH3537, and heldH2388[H8686] the lampsH3940 in their leftH8040 handsH3027, and the trumpetsH7782 in their rightH3225 handsH3027 to blowH8628[H8800] withal: and they criedH7121[H8799], The swordH2719 of the LORDH3068, and of GideonH1439. [No book]
[21]And they stoodH5975[H8799] every manH376 in his place round aboutH5439 the campH4264: and all the hostH4264 ranH7323[H8799], and criedH7321[H8686], and fledH5127[H8799][H8675][H5127].[H8686] [No book]
[22]And the threeH7969 hundredH3967 blewH8628[H8799] the trumpetsH7782, and the LORDH3068 setH7760[H8799] every man'sH376 swordH2719 against his fellowH7453, even throughout all the hostH4264: and the hostH4264 fledH5127[H8799] to BethshittahH1029 in ZererathH6888, and to the borderH8193 of AbelmeholahH65, unto TabbathH2888. [No book]
[23]And the menH376 of IsraelH3478 gathered themselves togetherH6817[H8735] out of NaphtaliH5321, and out of AsherH836, and out of all ManassehH4519, and pursuedH7291[H8799] afterH310 the MidianitesH4080. [No book]
[24]And GideonH1439 sentH7971[H8804] messengersH4397 throughout all mountH2022 EphraimH669, sayingH559[H8800], Come downH3381[H8798] againstH7125[H8800] the MidianitesH4080, and takeH3920[H8798] before them the watersH4325 unto BethbarahH1012 and JordanH3383. Then all the menH376 of EphraimH669 gathered themselves togetherH6817[H8735], and tookH3920[H8799] the watersH4325 unto BethbarahH1012 and JordanH3383. [No book]
[25]And they tookH3920[H8799] twoH8147 princesH8269 of the MidianitesH4080, OrebH6159 and ZeebH2062; and they slewH2026[H8799] OrebH6159 upon the rockH6697 OrebH6159, and ZeebH2062 they slewH2026[H8804] at the winepressH3342 of ZeebH2062, and pursuedH7291[H8799] MidianH4080, and broughtH935[H8689] the headsH7218 of OrebH6159 and ZeebH2062 to GideonH1439 on the other sideH5676 JordanH3383.
