Judges 7:9-14

Modern English Version

⁹ That night the Lord said to him, “Get up and go down into the camp, for I have given it into your hands. ¹⁰ Yet if you are afraid to go down, then go down to the camp with Purah your servant. ¹¹ Listen to what they say, and afterward you will be emboldened to go down to the camp.” So he and Purah his servant went down near the edge of the camp. ¹² Now the Midianites, Amalekites, and the Kedemites covered the valley like locusts; and their camels could not be counted, for they were as numerous as grains of sand on the seashore.

¹³ Gideon came and overheard one man who was telling his dream to another. The man said, “Listen to a dream I had. I saw a dry cake of barley bread rolling into the Midianite camp. It rolled up to a tent and struck it. It fell, turned upside down, and collapsed.”

¹⁴ The other man responded, “This is none other than the sword of Gideon son of Joash the Israelite. God has given Midian and the whole camp into his hands.”
