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.

¹² And the Midianites ^H4080 and the Amalekites ^H6002 and all the children ^H1121 of the east ^H6924 lay ^H5307 along in the valley ^H6010 like grasshoppers ^H697 for multitude; ^H7230 and their camels ^H1581 were without number, ^H4557 as the sand ^H2344 by the sea ^H3220 side ^H8193 for multitude. ^H7230

¹³ And when Gideon ^H1439 was come, ^H935 behold, there was a man ^H376 that told ^H5608 a dream ^H2472 unto his fellow, ^H7453 and said, ^H559 Behold, I dreamed ^H2492 a dream, ^H2472 and, lo, a cake ^{H6742 H6742} of barley ^H8184 bread ^H3899 tumbled ^H2015 into the host ^H4264 of Midian, ^H4080 and came ^H935 unto a tent, ^H168 and smote ^H5221 it that it fell, ^H5307 and overturned ^{H2015 H4605} it, that the tent ^H168 lay along. ^H5307

¹⁴ And his fellow ^H7453 answered ^H6030 and said, ^H559 This is nothing else save the sword ^H2719 of Gideon ^H1439 the son ^H1121 of Joash, ^H3101 a man ^H376 of Israel: ^H3478 for into his hand ^H3027 hath God ^H430 delivered ^H5414 Midian, ^H4080 and all the host. ^H4264

¹⁵ And it was so, when Gideon ^H1439 heard ^H8085 the telling ^H4557 of the dream, ^H2472 and the interpretation ^H7667 thereof, that he worshipped, ^H7812 and returned ^H7725 into the host ^H4264 of Israel, ^H3478 and said, ^H559 Arise; ^H6965 for the LORD ^H3068 hath delivered ^H5414 into your hand ^H3027 the host ^H4264 of Midian. ^H4080

¹⁶ And he divided ^H2673 the three ^H7969 hundred ^H3967 men ^H376 into three ^H7969 companies, ^H7218 and he put ^H5414 a trumpet ^H7782 in every man's hand, ^H3027 with empty ^H7386 pitchers, ^H3537 and lamps ^H3940 within ^H8432 the pitchers. ^H3537

¹⁷ And he said ^H559 unto them, Look ^H7200 on me, and do ^H6213 likewise: and, behold, when I come ^H935 to the outside ^H7097 of the camp, ^H4264 it shall be that, as I do, ^H6213 so shall ye do. ^H6213

¹⁸ When I blow ^H8628 with a trumpet, ^H7782 I and all that are with me, then blow ^H8628 ye the trumpets ^H7782 also on every side ^H5439 of all the camp, ^H4264 and say, ^H559 The sword of the LORD, ^H3068 and of Gideon. ^H1439

¹⁹ So Gideon, ^H1439 and the hundred ^H3967 men ^H376 that were with him, came ^H935 unto the outside ^H7097 of the camp ^H4264 in the beginning ^H7218 of the middle ^H8484 watch; ^H821 and they had but ^H389 newly ^H6965 set ^H6965 the watch: ^H8104 and they blew ^H8628 the trumpets, ^H7782 and brake ^H5310 the pitchers ^H3537 that were in their hands. ^H3027

²⁰ And the three ^H7969 companies ^H7218 blew ^H8628 the trumpets, ^H7782 and brake ^H7665 the pitchers, ^H3537 and held ^H2388 the lamps ^H3940 in their left ^H8040 hands, ^H3027 and the trumpets ^H7782 in their right ^H3225 hands ^H3027 to blow ^H8628 withal: and they cried, ^H7121 The sword ^H2719 of the LORD, ^H3068 and of Gideon. ^H1439

²¹ And they stood ^H5975 every man ^H376 in his place round about ^H5439 the camp: ^H4264 and all the host ^H4264 ran, ^H7323 and cried, ^H7321 and fled. ^{H5127 H5127}

²² And the three ^H7969 hundred ^H3967 blew ^H8628 the trumpets, ^H7782 and the LORD ^H3068 set ^H7760 every man's ^H376 sword ^H2719 against his fellow, ^H7453 even throughout all the host: ^H4264 and the host ^H4264 fled ^H5127 to Bethshittah ^H1029 in Zererath, ^H6888 and to the border ^H8193 of Abelmeholah, ^H65 unto Tabbath. ^H2888

²³ And the men ^H376 of Israel ^H3478 gathered themselves together ^H6817 out of Naphtali, ^H5321 and out of Asher, ^H836 and out of all Manasseh, ^H4519 and pursued ^H7291 after ^H310 the Midianites. ^H4080

²⁴ And Gideon ^H1439 sent ^H7971 messengers ^H4397 throughout all mount ^H2022 Ephraim, ^H669 saying, ^H559 Come down ^H3381 against ^H7125 the Midianites, ^H4080 and take ^H3920 before them the waters ^H4325 unto Bethbarah ^H1012 and Jordan. ^H3383 Then all the men ^H376 of Ephraim ^H669 gathered themselves together, ^H6817 and took ^H3920 the waters ^H4325 unto Bethbarah ^H1012 and Jordan. ^H3383

²⁵ And they took ^H3920 two ^H8147 princes ^H8269 of the Midianites, ^H4080 Oreb ^H6159 and Zeeb; ^H2062 and they slew ^H2026 Oreb ^H6159 upon the rock ^H6697 Oreb, ^H6159 and Zeeb ^H2062 they slew ^H2026 at the winepress ^H3342 of Zeeb, ^H2062 and pursued ^H7291 Midian, ^H4080 and brought ^H935 the heads ^H7218 of Oreb ^H6159 and Zeeb ^H2062 to Gideon ^H1439 on the other side ^H5676 Jordan. ^H3383

¹² And the Midianites and the Amalekites and all the children of the east lay along in the valley like locusts for multitude; and their camels were without number, as the sand which is upon the sea-shore for multitude.

¹³ And when Gideon was come, behold, there was a man telling a dream unto his fellow; and he said, Behold, I dreamed a dream; and, lo, a cake of barley bread tumbled into the camp of Midian, and came unto the tent, and smote it so that it fell, and turned it upside down, so that the tent lay flat.

¹⁴ And his fellow answered and said, This is nothing else save the sword of Gideon the son of Joash, a man of Israel: into his hand God hath 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 he returned into the camp of Israel, and said, Arise; for Jehovah hath delivered into your hand the host of Midian.

¹⁶ And he divided the three hundred men into three companies, and he put into the hands of all of them trumpets, and empty pitchers, with torches within the pitchers.

¹⁷ And he said unto them, Look on me, and do likewise: and, behold, when I come to the outermost part of the camp, it shall be that, as I do, so shall ye do.

¹⁸ When I blow the trumpet, I and all that are with me, then blow ye the trumpets also on every side of all the camp, and say, For Jehovah and for Gideon.

¹⁹ So Gideon, and the hundred men that were with him, came unto the outermost part of the camp in the beginning of the middle watch, when they had but newly set the watch: and they blew the trumpets, and brake in pieces the pitchers that were in their hands.

²⁰ And the three companies blew the trumpets, and brake the pitchers, and held the torches in their left hands, and the trumpets in their right hands wherewith to blow; and they cried, The sword of Jehovah and of Gideon.

²¹ And they stood every man in his place round about the camp; and all the host ran; and they shouted, and put `them' to flight.

²² And they blew the three hundred trumpets, and Jehovah set every man's sword against his fellow, and against all the host; and the host fled as far as Beth-shittah toward Zererah, as far as the border of Abel-meholah, by Tabbath.

²³ And the men of Israel were gathered together out of Naphtali, and out of Asher, and out of all Manasseh, and pursued after Midian.

²⁴ And Gideon sent messengers throughout all the hill-country of Ephraim, saying, Come down against Midian, and take before them the waters, as far as Beth-barah, even the Jordan. So all the men of Ephraim were gathered together, and took the waters as far as Beth-barah, even the Jordan.

²⁵ And they took the two princes of Midian, Oreb and Zeeb; and they slew Oreb at the rock of Oreb, and Zeeb they slew at the winepress of Zeeb, and pursued Midian: and they brought the heads of Oreb and Zeeb to Gideon beyond the Jordan.

---

¹² and Midian and Amalek, and all the sons of the east are lying in the valley, as the locust for multitude, and of their camels there is no number, as sand which `is' on the sea-shore for multitude.

¹³ And Gideon cometh in, and lo, a man is recounting to his companion a dream, and saith, `Lo, a dream I have dreamed, and lo, a cake of barley-bread is turning itself over into the camp of Midian, and it cometh in unto the tent, and smiteth it, and it falleth, and turneth it upwards, and the tent hath fallen.'

¹⁴ And his companion answereth and saith, `This is nothing save the sword of Gideon son of Joash, a man of Israel; God hath given into his hand Midian and all the camp.'

¹⁵ And it cometh to pass, when Gideon heareth the narration of the dream and its interpretation, that he boweth himself, and turneth back unto the camp of Israel, and saith, `Rise ye, for Jehovah hath given into your hand the camp of Midian.'

¹⁶ And he divideth the three hundred men `into' three detachments, and putteth trumpets into the hand of all of them, and empty pitchers, and lamps within the pitchers.

¹⁷ And he saith unto them, `Look at me, and thus do; and lo, I am coming into the extremity of the camp -- and it hath been -- as I do so ye do;

¹⁸ and I have blown with a trumpet -- I and all who `are' with me, and ye have blown with trumpets, even ye, round about all the camp, and have said, For Jehovah and for Gideon.'

¹⁹ And Gideon cometh -- and the hundred men who `are' with him -- into the extremity of the camp, `at' the beginning of the middle watch (it hath only just confirmed the watchmen), and they blow with trumpets -- dashing in pieces also the pitchers which `are' in their hand;

²⁰ and the three detachments blow with trumpets, and break the pitchers, and keep hold with their left hand on the lamps, and with their right hand on the trumpets to blow, and they cry, `The sword of Jehovah and of Gideon.'

²¹ And they stand each in his place, round about the camp, and all the camp runneth, and they shout, and flee;

²² and the three hundred blow the trumpets, and Jehovah setteth the sword of each against his companion, even through all the camp; and the camp fleeth unto Beth-Shittah, at Zererath, unto the border of Abel-Meholah, by Tabbath.

²³ And the men of Israel are called from Naphtali, and from Asher, and from all Manasseh, and pursue after Midian.

²⁴ And messengers hath sent Gideon into all the hill-country of Ephraim, saying, `Come down to meet Midian, and capture before them the waters unto Beth-Barah, and the Jordan;' and every man of Ephraim is called, and they capture the waters unto Beth-Barah, and the Jordan,

²⁵ and they capture two of the heads of Midian, Oreb, and Zeeb, and slay Oreb at the rock of Oreb, and Zeeb they have slain at the wine-vat of Zeeb, and they pursue unto Midian; and the heads of Oreb and Zeeb they have brought in unto Gideon beyond the Jordan.

---

¹² And the Mid'ianites and the Amal'ekites and all the people of the East lay along the valley like locusts for multitude; and their camels were without number, as the sand which is upon the seashore for multitude.

¹³ When Gideon came, behold, a man was telling a dream to his comrade; and he said, "Behold, I dreamed a dream; and lo, a cake of barley bread tumbled into the camp of Mid'ian, and came to the tent, and struck it so that it fell, and turned it upside down, so that the tent lay flat."

¹⁴ And his comrade answered, "This is no other than the sword of Gideon the son of Jo'ash, a man of Israel; into his hand God has given Mid'ian and all the host."

¹⁵ When Gideon heard the telling of the dream and its interpretation, he worshiped; and he returned to the camp of Israel, and said, "Arise; for the LORD has given the host of Mid'ian into your hand."

¹⁶ And he divided the three hundred men into three companies, and put trumpets into the hands of all of them and empty jars, with torches inside the jars.

¹⁷ And he said to them, "Look at me, and do likewise; when I come to the outskirts of the camp, do as I do.

¹⁸ When I blow the trumpet, I and all who are with me, then blow the trumpets also on every side of all the camp, and shout, 'For the LORD and for Gideon.'"

¹⁹ So Gideon and the hundred men who were with him came to the outskirts of the camp at the beginning of the middle watch, when they had just set the watch; and they blew the trumpets and smashed the jars that were in their hands.

²⁰ And the three companies blew the trumpets and broke the jars, holding in their left hands the torches, and in their right hands the trumpets to blow; and they cried, "A sword for the LORD and for Gideon!"

²¹ They stood every man in his place round about the camp, and all the army ran; they cried out and fled.

²² When they blew the three hundred trumpets, the LORD set every man's sword against his fellow and against all the army; and the army fled as far as Beth-shit'tah toward Zer'erah, as far as the border of A'bel-meho'lah, by Tabbath.

²³ And the men of Israel were called out from Naph'tali and from Asher and from all Manas'seh, and they pursued after Mid'ian.

²⁴ And Gideon sent messengers throughout all the hill country of E'phraim, saying, "Come down against the Mid'ianites and seize the waters against them, as far as Beth-bar'ah, and also the Jordan." So all the men of E'phraim were called out, and they seized the waters as far as Beth-bar'ah, and also the Jordan.

²⁵ And they took the two princes of Mid'ian, Oreb and Zeeb; they killed Oreb at the rock of Oreb, and Zeeb they killed at the wine press of Zeeb, as they pursued Mid'ian; and they brought the heads of Oreb and Zeeb to Gideon beyond the Jordan.

¹² The Midianites and the Amalekites and all the children of the east lay along in the valley like locusts for multitude; and their camels were without number, as the sand which is on the sea-shore for multitude.

¹³ When Gideon had come, behold, there was a man telling a dream to his fellow; and he said, Behold, I dreamed a dream; and, behold, a cake of barley bread tumbled into the camp of Midian, and came to the tent, and struck it so that it fell, and turned it upside down, so that the tent lay flat.

¹⁴ His fellow answered, This is nothing else save the sword of Gideon the son of Joash, a man of Israel: into his hand God has delivered Midian, and all the host.

¹⁵ It was so, when Gideon heard the telling of the dream, and the interpretation of it, that he worshiped; and he returned into the camp of Israel, and said, Arise; for Yahweh has delivered into your hand the host of Midian.

¹⁶ He divided the three hundred men into three companies, and he put into the hands of all of them trumpets, and empty pitchers, with torches within the pitchers.

¹⁷ He said to them, Look on me, and do likewise: and, behold, when I come to the outermost part of the camp, it shall be that, as I do, so shall you do.

¹⁸ When I blow the trumpet, I and all who are with me, then blow you the trumpets also on every side of all the camp, and say, For Yahweh and for Gideon.

¹⁹ So Gideon, and the hundred men who were with him, came to the outermost part of the camp in the beginning of the middle watch, when they had but newly set the watch: and they blew the trumpets, and broke in pieces the pitchers that were in their hands.

²⁰ The three companies blew the trumpets, and broke the pitchers, and held the torches in their left hands, and the trumpets in their right hands with which to blow; and they cried, The sword of Yahweh and of Gideon.

²¹ They stood every man in his place round about the camp; and all the host ran; and they shouted, and put [them] to flight.

²² They blew the three hundred trumpets, and Yahweh set every man's sword against his fellow, and against all the host; and the host fled as far as Beth-shittah toward Zererah, as far as the border of Abel Meholah, by Tabbath.

²³ The men of Israel were gathered together out of Naphtali, and out of Asher, and out of all Manasseh, and pursued after Midian.

²⁴ Gideon sent messengers throughout all the hill-country of Ephraim, saying, Come down against Midian, and take before them the waters, as far as Beth Barah, even the Jordan. So all the men of Ephraim were gathered together, and took the waters as far as Beth Barah, even the Jordan.

²⁵ They took the two princes of Midian, Oreb and Zeeb; and they killed Oreb at the rock of Oreb, and Zeeb they killed at the winepress of Zeeb, and pursued Midian: and they brought the heads of Oreb and Zeeb to Gideon beyond the Jordan.

---

¹² Now the Midianites and the Amalekites and all the people of the east were covering the valley like locusts; and their camels were like the sand by the seaside, without number.

¹³ When Gideon came there, a man was giving his friend an account of his dream, saying, See, I had a dream about a cake of barley bread which, falling into the tents of Midian, came on to the tent, overturning it so that it was stretched out flat on the earth.

¹⁴ And his friend in answer said, This is certainly the sword of Gideon, the son of Joash, the men of Israel: into their hands God has given up all the army of Midian.

¹⁵ Then Gideon, hearing the story of the dream and the sense in which they took it, gave worship; then he went back to the tents of Israel, and said, Up! for the Lord has given the army of Midian into your hands.

¹⁶ Then separating the three hundred men into three bands, he gave every man a horn, and a vessel in which was a flaming branch.

¹⁷ And he said to them, Keep your eyes on me, and do what I do; when I come to the outer line of tents, whatever I do, you are to do the same.

¹⁸ At the sound of my horn, and the horns of those who are with me, let your horns be sounded all round the tents, and say, For the Lord and for Gideon.

¹⁹ So Gideon and the three hundred men who were with him came to the outer line of tents, at the start of the middle watch, when the watchmen had only then taken their stations; and the horns were sounded and the vessels broken.

²⁰ So the three bands all gave a loud note on their horns, and when the vessels had been broken, they took the flaming branches in their left hands, and the horns in their right hands ready for blowing, crying out, For the Lord and for Gideon.

²¹ Then they made a line round the tents, every man in his place; and all the army, awaking from sleep, came running out, and with loud cries went in flight.

²² And the three hundred gave a loud note on their horns, and every man's sword was turned by the Lord against his brother all through the army; and the army went in flight as far as Beth-shittah in the direction of Zeredah, to the edge of Abel-meholah by Tabbath.

²³ And the men of Israel came together from Naphtali and from Asher and all Manasseh, and went after Midian.

²⁴ Then Gideon sent through all the hill-country of Ephraim saying, Come down against Midian, and keep the ways across Jordan before they come. So all the men of Ephraim, massing themselves together, kept the ways across Jordan.

²⁵ And they took the two chiefs of Midian, Oreb and Zeeb; and they put Oreb to death at the rock of Oreb, and Zeeb they put to death at the place of the grape-crushing in Zeeb, and they went after Midian; but the heads of Oreb and Zeeb they took across Jordan to Gideon.
