Judges 7:2

Arabic Bible AVD 1999 (الكتاب المقدس)

وَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِجِدْعُونَ: «إِنَّ ٱلشَّعْبَ ٱلَّذِي مَعَكَ كَثِيرٌ عَلَيَّ لِأَدْفَعَ ٱلْمِدْيَانِيِّينَ بِيَدِهِمْ، لِئَلَّا يَفْتَخِرَ عَلَيَّ إِسْرَائِيلُ قَائِلًا: يَدِي خَلَّصَتْنِي.

ما معنى هذا؟

In this verse, God tells Gideon that his army is too large. If too many soldiers fight, they might think they won the battle on their own, not acknowledging God's help. God wants to show that He can win with fewer people.
