Judges 7:21-25

21And each stood in his place around the camp; and 1all the 2army ran, crying out as they fled. 22And when they blew the three hundred trumpets, the 3Lord set the sword of one against another even throughout the entire 4army; and the 5army fled as far as Beth-shittah toward Zererah, as far as the edge of 6Abel-meholah, by Tabbath. 23And the men of Israel were summoned from 7Naphtali, Asher, and all Manasseh, and they pursued Midian.

24Then Gideon sent messengers throughout the hill country of Ephraim, saying, “Come down 8against Midian and 9take control of the waters ahead of them, as far as Beth-barah and the Jordan.” So all the men of Ephraim were summoned, and they took control of the waters as far as Beth-barah and the Jordan. 25And they captured the two leaders of Midian, 10Oreb and Zeeb, and they killed Oreb at the rock of Oreb, and they killed Zeeb at the wine press of Zeeb, while they pursued Midian; and they brought the heads of Oreb and Zeeb to Gideon 11from across the Jordan.
