## Judges 7:9-14 in Context (Verses 6–17 KJV)
 
 [6 ](/kjv/judges/7/6) And the number of them that lapped, *putting* their hand to their mouth, were three hundred men: but all the rest of the people bowed down upon their knees to drink water.
 
 [7 ](/kjv/judges/7/7) And the LORD said unto Gideon, By the three hundred men that lapped will I save you, and deliver the Midianites into thine hand: and let all the *other* people go every man unto his place.
 
 [8 ](/kjv/judges/7/8) So the people took victuals in their hand, and their trumpets: and he sent all *the rest of* Israel every man unto his tent, and retained those three hundred men: and the host of Midian was beneath him in the valley.
 
 [9 ](/kjv/judges/7/9) ¶ And it came to pass the same night, that the LORD said unto him, Arise, get thee down unto the host; for I have delivered it into thine hand.
 
 [10 ](/kjv/judges/7/10) But if thou fear to go down, go thou with Phurah thy servant down to the host:
 
 [11 ](/kjv/judges/7/11) And thou shalt hear what they say; and afterward shall thine hands be strengthened to go down unto the host. Then went he down with Phurah his servant unto the outside of the armed men that *were* in the host.*
 
 [12 ](/kjv/judges/7/12) And the Midianites and the Amalekites and all the children of the east lay along in the valley like grasshoppers for multitude; and their camels *were* without number, as the sand by the sea side for multitude.
 
 [13 ](/kjv/judges/7/13) And when Gideon was come, behold, *there was* a man that told a dream unto his fellow, and said, Behold, I dreamed a dream, and, lo, a cake of barley bread tumbled into the host of Midian, and came unto a tent, and smote it that it fell, and overturned it, that the tent lay along.
 
 [14 ](/kjv/judges/7/14) And his fellow answered and said, This *is* nothing else save the sword of Gideon the son of Joash, a man of Israel: *for* into his hand hath God delivered Midian, and all the host.
 
 [15 ](/kjv/judges/7/15) ¶ And it was *so*, when Gideon heard the telling of the dream, and the interpretation thereof, that he worshipped, and returned into the host of Israel, and said, Arise; for the LORD hath delivered into your hand the host of Midian.*
 
 [16 ](/kjv/judges/7/16) 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 within the pitchers.**
 
 [17 ](/kjv/judges/7/17) And he said unto them, Look on me, and do likewise: and, behold, when I come to the outside of the camp, it shall be *that*, as I do, so shall ye do.
