Judges 7:3 in Context — Judges 7
1 Jerubbaal, qui est Gédéon, et tout le peuple qui était avec lui, se levèrent de bon matin, et campèrent près de la source de Harod. Le camp de Madian était au nord de Gédéon, vers la colline de Moré, dans la vallée.
2 L’Éternel dit à Gédéon: Le peuple que tu as avec toi est trop nombreux pour que je livre Madian entre ses mains; il pourrait en tirer gloire contre moi, et dire: C’est ma main qui m’a délivré.
3 Publie donc ceci aux oreilles du peuple: Que celui qui est craintif et qui a peur s’en retourne et s’éloigne de la montagne de Galaad. Vingt-deux mille hommes parmi le peuple s’en retournèrent, et il en resta dix mille.
4 L’Éternel dit à Gédéon: Le peuple est encore trop nombreux. Fais-les descendre vers l’eau, et là je t’en ferai le triage; celui dont je te dirai: Que celui-ci aille avec toi, ira avec toi; et celui dont je te dirai: Que celui-ci n’aille pas avec toi, n’ira pas avec toi.
5 Gédéon fit descendre le peuple vers l’eau, et l’Éternel dit à Gédéon: Tous ceux qui laperont l’eau avec la langue comme lape le chien, tu les sépareras de tous ceux qui se mettront à genoux pour boire.
