Judges 6:38-40

6:38 The Lord did as he asked. 1  When he got up the next morning, he squeezed the fleece, and enough dew dripped from it to fill a bowl. 2  6:39 Gideon said to God, “Please do not get angry at me, when I ask for just one more sign. 3  Please allow me one more test with the fleece. This time make only the fleece dry, while the ground around it is covered with dew.” 4  6:40 That night God did as he asked. 5  Only the fleece was dry and the ground around it was covered with dew.
