Behold, when I come to the outside of the camp, as I do, so shall you do. 18 When I blow the trumpet, I and all who are with me, then blow your 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 who were with him came to the outside of the camp at the beginning of the middle watch, and they had just set the watch, and they blew the trumpets and broke the pitchers that were in their hands. 20 And the three companies blew the trumpets and broke the pitchers, and held the lamps in their left hands and the trumpets in their right hands to blow with, and they cried, The sword of the LORD and of Gideon. 21 And they stood every man in his place around the camp, and all the army ran, and cried out, and fled. 22 And the three hundred blew the trumpets, and the LORD set every man's sword against his fellow, even throughout the whole army, and the army fled to Beth Shittah in Zererath, as far as the border of Abel Meholah, by 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.
