1599 Geneva Bible
16 And he divided the three hundred men into three bands, and gave every man a trumpet in his hand with empty pitchers, and [a]lamps [b]within the pitchers.
17 And he said unto them, Look on me, and do likewise, when I come to the side of the host: even as I do, so do you.
18 When I blow with a trumpet and all that are with me, blow ye with trumpets also on every side of the host, and say, [c]For the Lord, and for Gideon.
