Judges 6:25-32

6:25

And it came to pass the same night
<03915>_,

that the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Take
<03947> (8798)

thy father's
<01>

young
<06499>

bullock
<07794>_,

even the second
<08145>

bullock
<06499>

of seven
<07651>

years old
<08141>_,

and throw down
<02040> (8804)

the altar
<04196>

of Baal
<01168>

that thy father
<01>

hath, and cut down
<03772> (8799)

the grove
<0842>

that [is] by it: {even: or, and}

6:26

And build
<01129> (8804)

an altar
<04196>

unto the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

upon the top
<07218>

of this rock
<04581>_,

in the ordered place
<04634>_,

and take
<03947> (8804)

the second
<08145>

bullock
<06499>_,

and offer
<05927> (8689)

a burnt sacrifice
<05930>

with the wood
<06086>

of the grove
<0842>

which thou shalt cut down
<03772> (8799)_.

{rock: Heb. strong place} {in the ordered...: or, in an orderly manner}

6:27

Then Gideon
<01439>

took
<03947> (8799)

ten
<06235>

men
<0582>

of his servants
<05650>_,

and did
<06213> (8799)

as the LORD
<03068>

had said
<01696> (8765)

unto him: and [so] it was, because he feared
<03372> (8804)

his father's
<01>

household
<01004>_,

and the men
<0582>

of the city
<05892>_,

that he could not do
<06213> (8800)

[it] by day
<03119>_,

that he did
<06213> (8799)

[it] by night
<03915>_.

6:28

And when the men
<0582>

of the city
<05892>

arose early
<07925> (8686)

in the morning
<01242>_,

behold, the altar
<04196>

of Baal
<01168>

was cast down
<05422> (8795)_,

and the grove
<0842>

was cut down
<03772> (8795)

that [was] by it, and the second
<08145>

bullock
<06499>

was offered
<05927> (8717)

upon the altar
<04196>

[that was] built
<01129> (8803)_.

6:29

And they said
<0559> (8799)

one
<0376>

to another
<07453>_,

Who hath done
<06213> (8804)

this thing
<01697>_?

And when they enquired
<01875> (8799)

and asked
<01245> (8762)_,

they said
<0559> (8799)_,

Gideon
<01439>

the son
<01121>

of Joash
<03101>

hath done
<06213> (8804)

this thing
<01697>_.

6:30

Then the men
<0582>

of the city
<05892>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Joash
<03101>_,

Bring out
<03318> (8685)

thy son
<01121>_,

that he may die
<04191> (8799)_:

because he hath cast down
<05422> (8804)

the altar
<04196>

of Baal
<01168>_,

and because he hath cut down
<03772> (8804)

the grove
<0842>

that [was] by it.

6:31

And Joash
<03101>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto all that stood
<05975> (8804)

against him, Will ye plead
<07378> (8799)

for Baal
<01168>_?

will ye save
<03467> (8686)

him? he that will plead
<07378> (8799)

for him, let him be put to death
<04191> (8714)

whilst [it is yet] morning
<01242>_:

if he [be] a god
<0430>_,

let him plead
<07378> (8799)

for himself, because [one] hath cast down
<05422> (8804)

his altar
<04196>_.

6:32

Therefore on that day
<03117>

he called
<07121> (8799)

him Jerubbaal
<03378>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Let Baal
<01168>

plead
<07378> (8799)

against him, because he hath thrown down
<05422> (8804)

his altar
<04196>_.

{Jerubbaal: that is, Let Baal plead} {Jerubbesheth: that is, Let the shameful thing plead}
