Gideon (Judges) article
I've reverted the Gideon (Judges) article back to the Good News Bible version – it is perfectly correct, I've checked it with my bible! God chooses the 300 men for Gideon. I also note that you appeared to include verse 8, which is not necessary. Let me know if you've got any questions. -- MightyWarrior 09:17, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
 * No problem. I think the confusion occurred because the GNB uses the verb "to lap" for both sets of men – one set "laps up the water with his tongue like a dog" and the other set "scooped up water in their hands and lapped it"; whereas the NIV only uses "lapped" for one of these groups. -- MightyWarrior 14:30, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
