Judges 6:1-13

6:1

And the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>

did
<06213> (8799)

evil
<07451>

in the sight
<05869>

of the LORD
<03068>_:

and the LORD
<03068>

delivered
<05414> (8799)

them into the hand
<03027>

of Midian
<04080>

seven
<07651>

years
<08141>_.

6:2

And the hand
<03027>

of Midian
<04080>

prevailed
<05810> (8799)

against Israel
<03478>_:

[and] because
<06440>

of the Midianites
<04080>

the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>

made
<06213> (8804)

them the dens
<04492>

which [are] in the mountains
<02022>_,

and caves
<04631>_,

and strong holds
<04679>_.

{prevailed: Heb. was strong}

6:3

And [so] it was, when Israel
<03478>

had sown
<02232> (8804)_,

that the Midianites
<04080>

came up
<05927> (8804)_,

and the Amalekites
<06002>_,

and the children
<01121>

of the east
<06924>_,

even they came up
<05927> (8804)

against them;

6:4

And they encamped
<02583> (8799)

against them, and destroyed
<07843> (8686)

the increase
<02981>

of the earth
<0776>_,

till thou come
<0935> (8800)

unto Gaza
<05804>_,

and left
<07604> (8686)

no sustenance
<04241>

for Israel
<03478>_,

neither sheep
<07716>_,

nor ox
<07794>_,

nor ass
<02543>_.

{sheep: or goat}

6:5

For they came up
<05927> (8799)

with their cattle
<04735>

and their tents
<0168>_,

and they came
<0935> (8804) (8675) <0935> (8799)

as
<01767>

grasshoppers
<0697>

for multitude
<07230>_;

[for] both they and their camels
<01581>

were without number
<04557>_:

and they entered
<0935> (8799)

into the land
<0776>

to destroy
<07843> (8763)

it.

6:6

And Israel
<03478>

was greatly
<03966>

impoverished
<01809> (8735)

because
<06440>

of the Midianites
<04080>_;

and the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>

cried
<02199> (8799)

unto the LORD
<03068>_.

6:7

And it came to pass, when the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>

cried
<02199> (8804)

unto the LORD
<03068>

because
<0182>

of the Midianites
<04080>_,

6:8

That the LORD
<03068>

sent
<07971> (8799)

a prophet
<0376> <05030>

unto the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>_,

which said
<0559> (8799)

unto them, Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_,

I brought you up
<05927> (8689)

from Egypt
<04714>_,

and brought you forth
<03318> (8686)

out of the house
<01004>

of bondage
<05650>_;

{a prophet: Heb. a man a prophet}

6:9

And I delivered
<05337> (8686)

you out of the hand
<03027>

of the Egyptians
<04714>_,

and out of the hand
<03027>

of all that oppressed
<03905> (8801)

you, and drave them out
<01644> (8762)

from before
<06440>

you, and gave
<05414> (8799)

you their land
<0776>_;

6:10

And I said
<0559> (8799)

unto you, I [am] the LORD
<03068>

your God
<0430>_;

fear
<03372> (8799)

not the gods
<0430>

of the Amorites
<0567>_,

in whose land
<0776>

ye dwell
<03427> (8802)_:

but ye have not obeyed
<08085> (8804)

my voice
<06963>_.

6:11

And there came
<0935> (8799)

an angel
<04397>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

and sat
<03427> (8799)

under an oak
<0424>

which [was] in Ophrah
<06084>_,

that [pertained] unto Joash
<03101>

the Abiezrite
<033>_:

and his son
<01121>

Gideon
<01439>

threshed
<02251> (8802)

wheat
<02406>

by the winepress
<01660>_,

to hide
<05127> (8687)

[it] from
<06440>

the Midianites
<04080>_.

{Gideon: Gr. Gedeon} {to hide...: Heb. to cause it to flee}

6:12

And the angel
<04397>

of the LORD
<03068>

appeared
<07200> (8735)

unto him, and said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, The LORD
<03068>

[is] with thee, thou mighty
<01368>

man of valour
<02428>_.

6:13

And Gideon
<01439>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Oh
<0994>

my Lord
<0113>_,

if
<03426>

the LORD
<03068>

be with us, why then is all this befallen
<04672> (8804)

us? and where [be] all his miracles
<06381> (8737)

which our fathers
<01>

told
<05608> (8765)

us of, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Did not the LORD
<03068>

bring us up
<05927> (8689)

from Egypt
<04714>_?

but now the LORD
<03068>

hath forsaken
<05203> (8804)

us, and delivered
<05414> (8799)

us into the hands
<03709>

of the Midianites
<04080>_.
