*
And the LORD said unto Gideon Gid #
own #,
The people are yet too many ;
bring them down unto the water ,
and I will try them for thee there :
and it shall be ,
that of whom I say unto thee ,
This shall go with thee ,
the same shall go with thee ;
and of whomsoever I say unto thee ,
This shall not go with thee ,
the same shall not go .
*
So he brought down the people unto the water :
and the LORD said unto Gideon Gid #
own #,
Every one that lappeth of the water with his tongue ,
as a dog lappeth ,
him shalt thou set by himself ;
likewise every one that boweth down upon his knees to drink .
*
And the number of them that lapped ,
putting their hand to their mouth ,
were three hundred men :
but all the rest of the people bowed down upon their knees to drink water .
*
And the LORD said unto Gideon Gid #
own #,
By the three hundred men that lapped will I save you ,
and deliver the Midianites into thine hand :
and let all the other people go every man unto his place .
