Judges 7:9-15

Amplified Bible

⁹ Now on that same night the Lord said to Gideon, “Arise, go down against their camp, for I have given it into your hand. ¹⁰ But if you are afraid to go down [by yourself], go with Purah your servant down to the camp, ¹¹ and you will hear what they say; and afterward ^[a]you will have the courage to go down against the camp.” Then he went down with Purah his servant to the ^[b]outposts of the army that was in the camp. ¹² Now the Midianites and the Amalekites and all the sons of the east were lying [camped] in the valley, as countless as locusts; and their camels were without number, as numerous as the sand on the seashore. ¹³ When Gideon arrived, ^[c]there was a man telling a dream to his friend. And he said, “Listen carefully, I had a dream: there was a loaf of ^[d]barley bread tumbling into the camp of Midian, and it came to the tent and struck it so that it fell, and turned it upside down so that the tent lay flat.” ¹⁴ And his friend replied, “This [dream] is nothing less than the sword of Gideon the son of Joash, a man of Israel. God has given Midian and the entire camp into his hand.”

¹⁵ When Gideon heard the account of the dream and its interpretation, he bowed down in worship. Then he returned to the camp of Israel and said, “Arise, for the Lord has given the camp of Midian into your hand.”
