- And the men of Ephraim said unto him, Why hast thou served us thus, that thou calledst us not, when thou wentest to fight with the Midianites? And they did chide with him sharply.
- And he said unto them, What have I done now in comparison of you? Is not the gleaning of the grapes of Ephraim better than the vintage of Abiezer?
- God hath delivered into your hands the princes of Midian, Oreb and Zeeb: and what was I able to do in comparison of you? Then their anger was abated toward him, when he had said that.
- And Gideon came to Jordan, and passed over, he, and the three hundred men that were with him, faint, yet pursuing them.
- And he said unto the men of Succoth, Give, I pray you, loaves of bread unto the people that follow me; for they be faint, and I am pursuing after Zebah and Zalmunna, kings of Midian.

- 以法莲人对基甸说,你去与米甸人争战,没有招我们同去,为什么这样待我们呢。他们就与基甸大大地争吵。
- 基甸对他们说,我所行的岂能比你们所行的呢。以法莲拾取剩下的葡萄不强过亚比以谢所摘的葡萄麽。
- 神已将米甸人的两个首领俄立和西伊伯交在你们手中。我所行的岂能比你们所行的呢。基甸说了这话,以法莲人的怒气就消了。
- 基甸和跟随他的三百人到约旦河过渡,虽然疲乏,还是追赶。
- 基甸对疏割人说,求你们拿饼来给跟随我的人吃,因为他们疲乏了。我们追赶米甸人的两个王西巴和撒慕拿。
