Judges 7:15-19

New International Version

¹⁵ When Gideon heard the dream and its interpretation, he bowed down and worshiped.^(A) He returned to the camp of Israel and called out, “Get up! The Lord has given the Midianite camp into your hands.”^{(B) 16} Dividing the three hundred men^(C) into three companies,^(D) he placed trumpets^(E) and empty jars^(F) in the hands of all of them, with torches^(G) inside.

¹⁷ “Watch me,” he told them. “Follow my lead. When I get to the edge of the camp, do exactly as I do. ¹⁸ When I and all who are with me blow our trumpets,^(H) then from all around the camp blow yours and shout, ‘For the Lord and for Gideon.’”

¹⁹ Gideon and the hundred men with him reached the edge of the camp at the beginning of the middle watch, just after they had changed the guard. They blew their trumpets and broke the jars^(I) that were in their hands.
