22 Mas os trezentos tocavam as trombetas: e o SENHOR pôs a espada de cada um contra seu companheiro em todo aquele acampamento. E o exército fugiu até Bete-Sita, até Zererá, e até o termo de Abel-Meolá em Tabate.

23 E juntando-se os de Israel, de Naftali, e de Aser, e de todo Manassés, seguiram aos midianitas.

24 Gideão também enviou mensageiros a todo aquele monte de Efraim, dizendo: Descei ao encontro dos midianitas, e tomai-lhes as águas até Bete-Bara e o Jordão. E juntos todos os homens de Efraim, tomaram as águas de Bete-Bara e o Jordão.

25 E tomaram dois príncipes dos midianitas, Orebe e Zeebe: e mataram a Orebe na penha de Orebe, e a Zeebe o mataram na prensa de uvas de Zeebe; e depois que seguiram aos midianitas, trouxeram as cabeças de Orebe e de Zeebe a Gideão da outra parte do Jordão.
