And Jerubbaal rose early (he is Gideon), and all the people with him. And they camped upon of Harod. And of Midian was to him from of the hill Moreh, in the valley.
And to Gideon, are many so as to not Midian into their hand, lest at any time Israel should boast instead of me, saying, My hand delivered me.
And to him, Speak indeed into the ears of the people! saying, Any one fearing and timid return! And they sallied out from mount Gilead. And returned of the people twenty and two thousand, and ten thousand were left behind.
And to Gideon, Still the people are many, lead them down to the water! and I will try them for you there. And it will be whom ever I should tell to you, This one shall go with you he shall go with you. And all whom ever I should say that, He shall not go with you, then he shall not go with you.
And went down to the water. And to Gideon, All who ever laps his tongue of the water as if should lap you shall stand him alone. And all who ever bends upon his knees to drink, you shall remove him by himself.
And was the number of the ones lapping with their tongue three hundred men. And all the remaining people bent upon their knees to drink water.
And to Gideon, By the three hundred men lapping I shall deliver you, and I will put Midian into your hand. And all the people ran, to his place.
And they took the provision of the people in their hand, and their horns. And every man of Israel he sent out to his tent, and the three hundred men he kept. And the camp of Midian was underneath him in the valley.
And it came to pass in that night, that said Rise up, go down into the camp! for I delivered it into your hand.
And if you should fear by yourself go down into the camp.
And you should hearken to what they speak, and after these things shall grow in strength and you shall go down in the camp. And he went down, he and Phurah his servant, into a portion of the fifty companies of the ones in the camp.
And Midian and Amalek and all the sons of the east were encamped in the valley as locust in multitude; and to but they were as if the sand upon the edge of the sea in multitude.
And Gideon came, and behold, a man was describing his neighbor a dream. And he said, Behold, I dreamed a dream. And behold, a loaf of bread of barley was rolling in the camp of Midian, and it came unto the tent of Midian, and it struck it, and it overturned it, and fell
And answered and said, not other than of Gideon son of Joash, a man of Israel. God delivered up into and all the camp.
And it came to pass as Gideon heard the description of the dream, and its interpretation, that he did obeisance to and he returned into the camp of Israel. And he said, Rise up! for into your hands the camp of Midian.
And he divided the three hundred men into three companies, and he put horns into of all, and water-pitchers and lamps in the middle of the water-pitchers.
And he said to them, Of me you shall see, and thus shall you do. And behold, I will enter into of the camp, and it will be as whenever I shall act, so shall you act.
When I shall trump with the horn, I and all with me, then you shall trump with the horns round about camp, and you shall say, For the and for Gideon.
And Gideon entered, and the hundred men, the ones with him, into of the camp command of the guard of the middle watch; furthermore rising they roused the ones guarding. And they trumped the horns, and shook off the water-pitchers, the ones in their hands.
And trumped with the horns, and they broke the water-pitchers, and took in and in hand horns to trump. And they shouted aloud, A broadsword for the and for Gideon.
And they stood, each man by himself, round about the camp; and they ran around all the camp, and they signified by an alarm and they fled.
And they trumped the three hundred horns. And sword against his neighbor, even in camp. And fled unto Beth-shittah Zererath, unto of Abel-meholah by Tabbath.
And called for aid of Naphtali, and of Asher, and of all Manasseh; and they pursued after Midian.
And messengers to every mountain of Ephraim, saying, Go down to meet Midian, and overtake for yourselves the water unto Beth-barah and the Jordan! And yelled out and were first to take the water unto Beth-barah and the Jordan.
And they seized the two rulers of Midian Oreb and Zeeb; and they killed Oreb in Sur, and Zeeb they killed in Jakeb Zeeb. And they pursued Midian. And the head of Oreb, and of Zeeb they brought to Gideon from the other side of the Jordan.
