Then Jerubbaal,
who is Gideon,
and all the people
that were with him, rose up early,
and pitched
beside the well of Harod:
so that the host
of the Midianites
were on the north side
of them, by the hill
of Moreh,
in the valley.

And the LORD
said
unto Gideon,
The people
that are with thee are too many
for me to give
the Midianites
into their hands,
lest Israel
vaunt
themselves against me, saying,
Mine own hand
hath saved
me.
say
Now therefore go to,
proclaim
in the ears
of the people,
saying,
Whosoever is fearful
and afraid,
let him return
and depart early
from mount
Gilead.
And there returned
of the people
twenty
and two
thousand;
and there remained
ten
thousand.

And the LORD
said
unto Gideon,
The people
are yet too many;
bring them down
unto the water,
and I will try
them for thee there: and it shall be, that of whom I say
unto thee, This shall go
with thee, the same shall go
with thee; and of whomsoever I say
unto thee, This shall not go
with thee, the same shall not go.

So he brought down
the people
unto the water:
and the LORD
said
unto Gideon,
Every one that lappeth
of the water
with his tongue,
as a dog
lappeth,
him shalt thou set
by himself; likewise every one that boweth down
upon his knees
to drink.

bowed down
upon their knees
to drink
water.

And the LORD
said
unto Gideon,
By the three

men
that lapped
will I save
you, and deliver
the Midianites
into thine hand:
and let all the other people
go
every man
unto his place.
say
lap with the tongue

So the people
took
victuals
in their hand,
and their trumpets:
and he sent
all
the rest of Israel
every man
unto his tent,
and retained
those three
hundred
men:
and the host
of Midian
was beneath him in the valley.

And it came to pass the same night,
that the LORD
said
unto him, Arise,
get thee down
unto the host;
for I have delivered
it into thine hand.
say
But if thou fear
to go down,
go
thou with Phurah
thy servant
down
to the host:
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.

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.

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.

And his fellow
answered
and said,
This is nothing else save the sword

for into his hand
hath God
delivered
Midian,
and all the host.

And it was so, when Gideon
heard
the telling
of the dream,

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.

And he divided
the three

into three

and he put

with empty

within
the pitchers.

And he said
unto them, Look

of the camp,
it shall be that, as I do,
so shall ye do.
say
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.

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.

And the three

The sword

And they stood

and all the host
ran,

and fled.
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.

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.
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.
