Judges 7:19-21
New English Translation

19 Gideon took 100 men to the edge of the camp[a] at the beginning of the middle watch, just after they had changed the guards. They blew their trumpets and broke the jars they were carrying.[b] 20 All three units blew their trumpets and broke their jars. They held the torches in their left hand and the trumpets in their right.[c] Then they yelled, “A sword for the Lord and for Gideon!” 21 They stood in order[d] all around the camp. The whole Midianite[e] army ran away; they shouted as they scrambled away.[f]
