Judges 7:2-3

English Standard Version

² The Lord said to Gideon, “The people with you are too many for me to give the Midianites into their hand, ^(A)lest Israel boast over me, saying, ‘My own hand has saved me.’ ³ Now therefore proclaim in the ears of the people, saying, ^(B)‘Whoever is fearful and trembling, let him return home and hurry away from Mount Gilead.’” Then 22,000 of the people returned, and 10,000 remained.
