21 And ^aevery man stood in his place all around the camp; ^band the whole army ran and cried out and fled.

22 When the three hundred ^ablew the trumpets, ^bthe Lord set ^cevery man’s sword against his companion throughout the whole camp; and the army fled to¹ Beth Acacia, toward Zererah, as far as the border of ^dAbel Meholah, by Tabbath.

23 And the men of Israel gathered together from ^aNaphtali, Asher, and all Manasseh, and pursued the Midianites.

24 Then Gideon sent messengers throughout all the ^amountains of Ephraim, saying, “Come down against the Midianites, and seize from them the watering places as far as Beth Barah and the Jordan.” Then all the men of Ephraim gathered together and ^bseized the watering places as far as ^cBeth Barah and the Jordan.

25 And they captured ^atwo princes of the Midianites, ^bOreb and Zeeb. They killed Oreb at the rock of Oreb, and Zeeb they killed at the winepress of Zeeb. They pursued Midian and brought the heads of Oreb and Zeeb to Gideon on the ^cother side of the Jordan.
