And Gideon came to the Jordan, and went over, himself and the three hundred with him, hungry, yet still pursuing.

And he said to the men of Soccoth, Give some bread to feed this people that follow me; because they are faint, and behold, I am following after Zebah and Zalmunna, kings of Midian.

And one of the people answered and said, Your father solemnly adjured the people, saying, Cursed is the man who shall eat bread today. And the people were very faint,

And on that day he struck some of the Philistines in Michmash; and the people were very weary.

A just [man] eats and satisfies his soul, but the souls of the ungodly are in want.

For the young [men] shall hunger, and the youths shall be weary, and the choice [men] shall be powerless;

but they that wait on God shall renew [their] strength; they shall put forth new feathers like eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; they shall walk, and not faint.
