Löydetty 44 Tulokset: Gideon
All three companies blew horns and broke their jars. They held the torches in their left hands, and in their right the horns they were blowing, and cried out, "A sword for the LORD and Gideon!" (Judges 7, 20)
Gideon also sent messengers throughout the mountain region of Ephraim to say, "Go down to confront Midian, and seize the water courses against them as far as Beth-barah, as well as the Jordan." So all the Ephraimites were called to arms, and they seized the water courses as far as Beth-barah, and the Jordan as well. (Judges 7, 24)
They captured the two princes of Midian, Oreb and Zeeb, killing Oreb at the rock of Oreb and Zeeb at the wine press of Zeeb. Then they pursued Midian and carried the heads of Oreb and Zeeb to Gideon beyond the Jordan. (Judges 7, 25)
When Gideon reached the Jordan and crossed it with his three hundred men, they were exhausted and famished. (Judges 8, 4)
Gideon said, "Very well; when the LORD has delivered Zebah and Zalmunna into my power, I will grind your flesh in with the thorns and briers of the desert." (Judges 8, 7)
Gideon went up by the route of the nomads east of Nobah and Jogbehah, and attacked the camp when it felt secure. (Judges 8, 11)
Then Gideon, son of Joash, returned from battle by the pass of Heres. (Judges 8, 13)
Zebah and Zalmunna said, "Come, kill us yourself, for a man's strength is like the man." So Gideon stepped forward and killed Zebah and Zalmunna. He also took the crescents that were on the necks of their camels. (Judges 8, 21)
The Israelites then said to Gideon, "Rule over us--you, your son, and your son's son--for you rescued us from the power of Midian." (Judges 8, 22)
But Gideon answered them, "I will not rule over you, nor shall my son rule over you. The LORD must rule over you." (Judges 8, 23)
Gideon went on to say, "I should like to make a request of you. Will each of you give me a ring from his booty?" (For being Ishmaelites, the enemy had gold rings.) (Judges 8, 24)
Gideon made an ephod out of the gold and placed it in his city Ophrah. However, all Israel paid idolatrous homage to it there, and caused the ruin of Gideon and his family. (Judges 8, 27)
