Judges 7:8

So the people took provisions in their hands , and their trumpets . And he sent all the rest of Israel every man to his tent , but retained the 300 men . And the camp of Midian was below him in the valley .

So Gideon sent the rest of the Israelites home but kept the three hundred, who took over the provisions and trumpets of the others. Now the camp of Midian lay below him in the valley.

So the people took victuals in their hand, and their trumpets : and he sent all the rest of Israel every man unto his tent, and retained those three hundred men : and the host of Midian was beneath him in the valley.
