King James Version
Judges 6:20-27
20And the angelH4397 of GodH430 saidH559 unto him, TakeH3947 the fleshH1320 and the unleavened cakesH4682, and layH3240 them upon thisH1975 rockH5553, and pour outH8210 the brothH4839. And he didH6213 so.
21Then the angelH4397 of the LordH3068 put forthH7971 the endH7097 of the staffH4938 that was in his handH3027, and touchedH5060 the fleshH1320 and the unleavened cakesH4682; and there rose upH5927 fireH784 out of the rockH6697, and consumedH398 the fleshH1320 and the unleavened cakesH4682. Then the angelH4397 of the LordH3068 departedH1980 out of his sightH5869. 22And when GideonH1439 perceivedH7200 that he was an angelH4397 of the LordH3068, GideonH1439 saidH559, AlasH162, O LordH136 GodH3069! for becauseH3651 I have seenH7200 an angelH4397 of the LordH3068 faceH6440 to faceH6440. 23And the LordH3068 saidH559 unto him, PeaceH7965 be unto thee; fearH3372 not: thou shalt not dieH4191. 24Then GideonH1439 builtH1129 an altarH4196 there unto the LordH3068, and calledH7121 it Jehovah–shalomH3073: unto this dayH3117 it is yet in OphrahH6084 of the Abi–ezritesH33.1
25And it came to pass the same nightH3915, that the LordH3068 saidH559 unto him, TakeH3947 thy father’sH1 youngH6499 bullockH7794, even the secondH8145 bullockH6499 of sevenH7651 years oldH8141, and throw downH2040 the altarH4196 of BaalH1168 that thy fatherH1 hath, and cut downH3772 the groveH842 that is by it:2 26And buildH1129 an altarH4196 unto the LordH3068 thy GodH430 upon the topH7218 of this rockH4581, in the ordered placeH4634, and takeH3947 the secondH8145 bullockH6499, and offerH5927 a burnt sacrificeH5930 with the woodH6086 of the groveH842 which thou shalt cut downH3772.34 27Then GideonH1439 tookH3947 tenH6235 menH582 of his servantsH5650, and didH6213 as the LordH3068 had saidH1696 unto him: and so it was, because he fearedH3372 his father’sH1 householdH1004, and the menH582 of the cityH5892, that he could not doH6213 it by dayH3119, that he didH6213 it by nightH3915.
