9 And it came to pass, on that night, that Yahweh said unto him, Arise! go down against the camp,––for I have delivered it into thy hand.
10 Or, if, thou, art afraid to go down, go down––thou and Purah thy young man, unto the camp;
11 so shalt thou hear what they shall say,––and, afterward, shall thy hands grow strong, and thou shalt go down against the camp. Then went he down, he and Purah his young man, unto the outmost part of the armed men that were in the camp.
12 Now, the Midianites and the Amalekites and all the sons of the east, were lying along in the vale, like locusts for multitude,––their camels also, were without number, as the sand that is by the sea side, for multitude.
13 And Gideon came in, and lo! a man relating to his neighbour a dream,––and he said––Lo! a dream, have I dreamt, and lo! a round cake of barley bread tumbling into the camp of Midian, and it came as far as the tent––and smote it that it fell, and turned it upside down, and the tent lay along.
14 Then responded his neighbour and said:––Nothing else, is this, than the sword of Gideon son of Joash, a man of Israel,––God hath delivered into his hand, both Midian and all the host.
15 And it was so, when Gideon heard the story of the dream, and the interpretation thereof, that he bowed himself down,––and returned unto the camp of Israel, and said––Arise! for Yahweh hath delivered into your hand the host of Midian.
16 And he divided the three hundred men, into three companies,––and put horns into the hands of them all, with empty pitchers, and torches inside the pitchers. 17 Then he said unto them, On me, shall ye look, and, in like manner, shall ye do,––and lo! when I am coming unto the outermost part of the camp, then shall it be, that, as I do, so, shall ye do. 18 When I shall blow with the horn, I and all who are with me, then shall, ye also, round about all the camp, blow with your horns, and shall say, For Yahweh and for Gideon! 19 So Gideon came, and the hundred men that were with him, unto the outermost part of the camp, at the beginning of the middle watch, they had but, newly set, the watchers,––and they blew with the horns, and brake in pieces the pitchers, that were in their hand. 20 Yea the three companies blew with the horns, and shivered the pitchers, and caught hold––with their left hands––of the torches, while, in their right hands, were the horns, to blow with,––and they cried, A sword for Yahweh, and for Gideon!
