Judges 7:5-7

Evangelical Heritage Version

⁵ So Gideon led the people down to the water, and the Lord said to Gideon, “Place everyone who laps water with his tongue, as a dog would lap, to one side. Place everyone who kneels down to drink on the other side.” ⁶ The number of those who lapped—those who put their hands to their mouths^[a]—was three hundred men, while all the rest of the people knelt down to drink water.

⁷ The Lord said to Gideon, “With the three hundred men who lapped, I will deliver you, and I will give Midian into your hand. As for all the other people, let each man go back to his place.”
