Judges 7:16-22
16He dividedH2673 the 300H7969H3967 menH376 into threeH7969 1companiesH7218, and he putH5414 trumpetsH7782 and emptyH7386 pitchersH3537 into the handsH3027 of allH3605 of them, with torchesH3940 insideH8432 the pitchersH3537. 17He saidH559 to them, “LookH7200 at me and doH6213 likewiseH3651. And beholdH2009, when I comeH935 to the outskirtsH7097 of the campH4264, 2doH6213 as I doH6213. 18When I and allH3605 whoH834 are with me blowH8628 the trumpetH7782, then you alsoH1571 blowH8628 the trumpetsH7782 allH3605 aroundH5439 the campH4264 and sayH559, ‘For the LordH3068 and for GideonH1439.’”
19So GideonH1439 and the hundredH3967 menH376 whoH834 were with him cameH935 to the outskirtsH7097 of the campH4264 at the beginningH7218 of the middleH8484 watchH821, whenH389 they had justH389 postedH6965 the watchH8104; and they blewH8628 the trumpetsH7782 and smashedH5310 the pitchersH3537 that were in their handsH3027. 20When the threeH7969 3companiesH7218 blewH8628 the trumpetsH7782 and brokeH7665 the pitchersH3537, they heldH2388 the torchesH3940 in their leftH8040 handsH3027 and the trumpetsH7782 in their rightH3225 handsH3027 for blowingH8628, and criedH7121, “A swordH2719 for the LordH3068 and for GideonH1439!” 21EachH376 stoodH5975 in his placeH8478 aroundH5439 the campH4264; and 4allH3605 the 5armyH4264 ranH7323, cryingH7321 out as they fledH5127. 22When they blewH8628 300H7969H3967 trumpetsH7782, the 6LordH3068 setH7760 the swordH2719 of oneH376 against anotherH7453 even throughoutH3605 the wholeH3605 7armyH4264; and the 8armyH4264 fledH5127 as farH5704 as Beth-shittahH1029 toward ZererahH6888, as farH5704 as the edgeH8193 of 9Abel-meholahH65, by TabbathH2888.
