Judges 6:33-40

33Then all the Midianites, the Amalekites, and the 1people of the east assembled together; and they crossed over and camped in 2the Valley of Jezreel. 34So 3the Spirit of the Lord 4covered Gideon like clothing; and he 5blew a trumpet, and the Abiezrites were called together to follow him. 35And he sent messengers throughout Manasseh, and they also were called together to follow him; and he sent messengers to Asher, 6Zebulun, and Naphtali, and 7they came up to meet them.

36Then Gideon said to God, “8If You are going to save Israel 9through me, as You have spoken, 37behold, I am putting a fleece of wool on the threshing floor. If there is dew on the fleece only, and it is dry on all the ground, then I will know that You will save Israel 10through me, as You have spoken.” 38And it was so. When he got up early the next morning and wrung out the fleece, he wrung the dew from the fleece, a bowl full of water. 39Then Gideon said to God, “11Do not let Your anger burn against me, so that I may speak only one more time; please let me put You to the test only one more time with the fleece: let it now be dry only on the fleece, and let there be dew on all the ground.” 40And God did so that night; for it was dry only on the fleece, and dew was on all the ground.
