Judges 6:1-24

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>_.
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}
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;
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}
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.
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>_.
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>_,
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}
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>_;
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>_.
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}
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>_.
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>_.
And the LORD
<03068>
looked
<06437> (8799)
upon him, and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Go
<03212> (8798)
in this thy might
<03581>_,
and thou shalt save
<03467> (8689)
Israel
<03478>
from the hand
<03709>
of the Midianites
<04080>_:
have not I sent
<07971> (8804)
thee?
And he said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Oh
<0994>
my Lord
<0136>_,
wherewith
<04100>
shall I save
<03467> (8686)
Israel
<03478>_?
behold, my family
<0504> (8676) <0505>
[is] poor
<01800>
in Manasseh
<04519>_,
and I [am] the least
<06810>
in my father's
<01>
house
<01004>_.
{my family...: Heb. my thousand is the meanest}
And the LORD
<03068>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Surely I will be with thee, and thou shalt smite
<05221> (8689)
the Midianites
<04080>
as one
<0259>
man
<0376>_.
And he said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, If now I have found
<04672> (8804)
grace
<02580>
in thy sight
<05869>_,
then shew
<06213> (8804)
me a sign
<0226>
that thou talkest
<01696> (8764)
with me.
Depart
<04185> (8799)
not hence, I pray thee, until I come
<0935> (8800)
unto thee, and bring forth
<03318> (8689)
my present
<04503>_,
and set
<03240> (8689)
[it] before
<06440>
thee. And he said
<0559> (8799)_,
I will tarry
<03427> (8799)
until thou come again
<07725> (8800)_.
{present: or, meat offering}
And Gideon
<01439>
went in
<0935> (8804)_,
and made ready
<06213> (8799)
a kid
<05795> <01423>_,
and unleavened cakes
<04682>
of an ephah
<0374>
of flour
<07058>_:
the flesh
<01320>
he put
<07760> (8804)
in a basket
<05536>_,
and he put
<07760> (8804)
the broth
<04839>
in a pot
<06517>_,
and brought [it] out
<03318> (8686)
unto him under the oak
<0424>_,
and presented
<05066> (8686)
[it]. {a kid: Heb. a kid of the goats}
And the angel
<04397>
of God
<0430>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Take
<03947> (8798)
the flesh
<01320>
and the unleavened cakes
<04682>_,
and lay
<03240> (8685)
[them] upon this
<01975>
rock
<05553>_,
and pour out
<08210> (8798)
the broth
<04839>_.
And he did
<06213> (8799)
so.
Then the angel
<04397>
of the LORD
<03068>
put forth
<07971> (8799)
the end
<07097>
of the staff
<04938>
that [was] in his hand
<03027>_,
and touched
<05060> (8799)
the flesh
<01320>
and the unleavened cakes
<04682>_;
and there rose up
<05927> (8799)
fire
<0784>
out of the rock
<06697>_,
and consumed
<0398> (8799)
the flesh
<01320>
and the unleavened cakes
<04682>_.
Then the angel
<04397>
of the LORD
<03068>
departed
<01980> (8804)
out of his sight
<05869>_.
And when Gideon
<01439>
perceived
<07200> (8799)
that he [was] an angel
<04397>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
Gideon
<01439>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Alas
<0162>_,
O Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>_!
for because
<03651>
I have seen
<07200> (8804)
an angel
<04397>
of the LORD
<03068>
face
<06440>
to face
<06440>_.
And the LORD
<03068>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Peace
<07965>
[be] unto thee; fear
<03372> (8799)
not: thou shalt not die
<04191> (8799)_.
Then Gideon
<01439>
built
<01129> (8799)
an altar
<04196>
there unto the LORD
<03068>_,
and called
<07121> (8799)
it Jehovahshalom
<03073>_:
unto this day
<03117>
it [is] yet in Ophrah
<06084>
of the Abiezrites
<033>_.
{Jehovahshalom: that is, The LORD send peace}
