  • Judg 7:1-9 : 1 Then Jerubbaal, who is Gideon, and all the people with him, rose early and camped beside the well of Harod, so the Midianite army was on the north side of them, by the hill of Moreh, in the valley. 2 And the LORD said to Gideon, The people with you are too many for me to hand the Midianites over to you, lest Israel boast against me, saying, My own hand has saved me. 3 Now therefore, proclaim in the ears of the people, saying, Whoever is fearful and afraid, let him return and depart early from Mount Gilead. And twenty-two thousand of the people returned; and ten thousand remained. 4 And the LORD said to Gideon, The people are still too many; bring them down to the water, and I will test them for you there. It shall be that of whom I say to you, This one shall go with you, the same shall go with you; and of whomever I say to you, This one shall not go with you, the same shall not go. 5 So he brought the people down to the water, and the LORD said to Gideon, Everyone who laps the water with his tongue, as a dog laps, you shall set by himself; likewise everyone who bows down on his knees to drink. 6 And the number of those who lapped, putting their hand to their mouth, were three hundred men; but all the rest of the people bowed down on their knees to drink water. 7 And the LORD said to Gideon, By the three hundred men who lapped I will save you and deliver the Midianites into your hand; let all the other people go every man to his place. 8 So the people took provisions in their hands, and their trumpets, and he sent all the rest of Israel, every man to his tent, and retained those three hundred men; and the Midianite army was below him in the valley. 9 And it came to pass the same night, that the LORD said to him, Arise, go down to the army, for I have delivered it into your hand. 10 But if you fear to go down, go with Phurah your servant down to the army. 11 And you shall hear what they say, and afterward your hands shall be strengthened to go down to the army. Then he went down with Phurah his servant to the outposts of the armed men who were in the camp. 12 And the Midianites and the Amalekites and all the children of the east lay in the valley as numerous as locusts, and their camels were without number, as the sand by the seashore for multitude. 13 And when Gideon came, behold, there was a man telling a dream to his friend; and he said, Behold, I dreamed a dream, and lo, a cake of barley bread tumbled into the Midianite camp, and came to a tent, and struck it that it fell, and overturned it, so that the tent lay flat. 14 And his friend answered and said, This is nothing else but the sword of Gideon the son of Joash, a man of Israel; for God has delivered Midian and all the army into his hand. 15 And it was so when Gideon heard the telling of the dream and its interpretation, that he worshipped, and returned to the army of Israel and said, Arise, for the LORD has delivered the Midianite army into your hand. 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 inside the pitchers. 17 And he said to them, Look at me, and do likewise. 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. 24 And Gideon sent messengers throughout all Mount Ephraim, saying, Come down against the Midianites and take before them the waters as far as Beth Barah and Jordan. Then all the men of Ephraim gathered themselves together and took the waters as far as Beth Barah and Jordan. 25 And they captured two princes of the Midianites, Oreb and Zeeb; and they killed Oreb on the rock of Oreb, and Zeeb they killed at the winepress of Zeeb, and pursued the Midianites, and brought the heads of Oreb and Zeeb to Gideon on the other side of Jordan.

And when he had turned in to her into the tent, she covered him with a blanket. 19 And he said to her, Please give me a little water to drink, for I am thirsty. So she opened a jug of milk and gave him a drink, and covered him. 20 Then he said to her, Stand in the door of the tent, and if anyone comes and asks you, Is there a man here? you shall say, No. 21 Then Jael, Heber's wife, took a tent peg and a hammer in her hand, went softly to him, and drove the peg into his temples, and it went down into the ground, for he was fast asleep and exhausted. So he died. 22 And behold, as Barak pursued Sisera, Jael came out to meet him, and said to him, Come, and I will show you the man whom you seek. And when he came into her tent, there lay Sisera dead, with the peg in his temples. 23 So God subdued Jabin king of Canaan on that day before the children of Israel. 24 And the hand of the children of Israel pressed harder and harder against Jabin king of Canaan, until they had destroyed Jabin king of Canaan.
