Judges 7:22-24
1599 Geneva Bible
22 And the three hundred blew with trumpets, and (A)the Lord set every man’s sword upon his [a]neighbor, and upon all the host: so the host fled to Beth Hashittah in Zererah, and to the border of Abel Meholah, unto Tabbath.
23 Then the men of Israel being gathered together out of Naphtali, and out of Asher, and out of all Manasseh, pursued after the Midianites.
24 And Gideon sent messengers unto all mount Ephraim, saying, Come down against the Midianites, and take before them the [b]waters unto Beth Barah and Jordan. Then all the men of Ephraim gathered together and took the waters unto Beth Barah, and Jordan.

New International Version
22 When the three hundred trumpets sounded,(A) the Lord caused the men throughout the camp to turn on each other(B) with their swords.(C) The army fled to Beth Shittah toward Zererah as far as the border of Abel Meholah(D) near Tabbath. 23 Israelites from Naphtali, Asher(E) and all Manasseh were called out,(F) and they pursued the Midianites.(G) 24 Gideon sent messengers throughout the hill country of Ephraim, saying, “Come down against the Midianites and seize the waters of the Jordan(H) ahead of them as far as Beth Barah.”
So all the men of Ephraim were called out and they seized the waters of the Jordan as far as Beth Barah.
