Judges 7:5-7

Modern English Version

⁵ So he brought the people down to the water, and the Lord said to Gideon, “You shall set apart by himself everyone who laps the water with his tongue like dogs; likewise, everyone who kneels down to drink.” ⁶ The number of those who lapped, putting their hands to their mouths, was three hundred. The rest of the people had knelt to drink water.

⁷ The Lord said to Gideon, “With three hundred men who lapped to drink, I will save you and give the Midianites into your hands. All the rest of the people should go home.”
