Judges 7:20 in Context — Judges 7
18 et quand je sonnerai de la trompette, moi et tous ceux qui seront avec moi, vous sonnerez aussi de la trompette tout autour du camp, et vous direz: Pour l’Éternel et pour Gédéon!
19 Gédéon et les cent hommes qui étaient avec lui arrivèrent aux abords du camp au commencement de la veille du milieu, comme on venait de placer les gardes. Ils sonnèrent de la trompette, et brisèrent les cruches qu’ils avaient à la main.
20 Les trois corps sonnèrent de la trompette, et brisèrent les cruches; ils saisirent de la main gauche les flambeaux et de la main droite les trompettes pour sonner, et ils s’écrièrent: Épée pour l’Éternel et pour Gédéon!
21 Ils restèrent chacun à sa place autour du camp, et tout le camp se mit à courir, à pousser des cris, et à prendre la fuite.
22 Les trois cents hommes sonnèrent encore de la trompette; et, dans tout le camp, l’Éternel leur fit tourner l’épée les uns contre les autres. Le camp s’enfuit jusqu’à Beth-Schitta vers Tseréra, jusqu’au bord d’Abel-Mehola près de Tabbath.
