Judges 6:17-24

17And he saidH559 unto him, If now I have foundH4672 favorH2580 in thy sight, then show me a signH226 that it is thou that talkest with me. 18DepartH4185 not hence, I pray thee, until I comeH935 unto thee, and bringH935 forthH3318 my present, and lay it before thee. And he saidH559, I will tarry until thou comeH935 again.

19And GideonH1439 wentH3318 in, and madeH6213 ready a kid, and unleavenedH4682 cakes of an ephahH374 of meal: the fleshH1320 he putH7760 in a basketH5536, and he putH7760 the brothH4839 in a potH6517, and broughtH935 it out unto him under the oakH424, and presented it. 20And the angelH4397 of GodH430 saidH559 unto him, TakeH3947 the fleshH1320 and the unleavenedH4682 cakes, and lay them upon this rockH5553, and pourH8210 out the brothH4839. And he did soH3651. 21Then the angelH4397 of Jehovah put forthH7971 the endH7097 of the staffH4938 that was in his handH3027, and touchedH5060 the fleshH1320 and the unleavenedH4682 cakes; and there wentH1980 up fireH784 out of the rockH6697, and consumedH398 the fleshH1320 and the unleavenedH4682 cakes; and the angelH4397 of Jehovah departed out of his sight. 22And GideonH1439 sawH7200 that he was the angelH4397 of Jehovah; and GideonH1439 saidH559, AlasH162, O Lord Jehovah! forasmuch as I have seenH7200 the angelH4397 of Jehovah faceH6440 to faceH6440. 23And Jehovah saidH559 unto him, PeaceH7965 be unto thee; fearH3372 not: thou shalt not dieH4191. 24Then GideonH1439 builtH1129 an altarH4196 there unto Jehovah, and calledH7121 it Jehovah-shalom: unto this dayH3117 it is yetH5750 in OphrahH6084 of the Abiezrites.
