Judges 6:17-24
17So 1Gideon saidH559 to Him, “IfH518 nowH4994 I have foundH4672 favorH2580 in Your sightH5869, then performH6213 for me 2a signH226 that it is You speakingH1696 with me. 18PleaseH4994 do not departH4185 from hereH2088 untilH5704 I comeH935 back to You, and bringH3318 outH3318 my offeringH4503 and layH5117 it beforeH6440 You.” And He saidH559, “I will remainH3427 untilH5704 you returnH7725.”
19Then GideonH1439 wentH935 inH935 and 3preparedH6213 a youngH1423H5795 goatH1423H5795 and unleavenedH4682 breadH4682 from an 4ephahH374 of flourH7058; he putH7760 the meatH1320 in a basketH5536 5and the brothH4839 in a potH6517, and broughtH3318 them outH3318 to him underH8478 the 6oakH424 and presentedH5066 them. 20And the angelH4397 of GodH430 saidH559 to him, “TakeH3947 the meatH1320 and the unleavenedH4682 breadH4682 and layH5117 them on thisH1975 rockH5553, and pourH8210 outH8210 the brothH4839.” And he didH6213 soH3651. 21Then the angelH4397 of the LordH3068 putH7971 outH7971 the endH7097 of the staffH4938 that was in his handH3027 and touchedH5060 the meatH1320 and the unleavenedH4682 breadH4682; and 7fireH784 cameH5927 upH5927 from the rockH6697 and consumedH398 the meatH1320 and the unleavenedH4682 breadH4682. Then the angelH4397 of the LordH3068 8vanishedH1980 from his sightH5869. 229When GideonH1439 perceivedH7200 that he was the angelH4397 of the LordH3068, 10he saidH559, “OhH162, LordH136 11GodH3068! For I have seenH7200 the angelH4397 of the LordH3068 faceH6440 to faceH6440!” 23But the LordH3068 saidH559 to him, “PeaceH7965 to you, do not beH3372 afraidH3372; you shall not dieH4191.” 24Then GideonH1439 builtH1129 an altarH4196 thereH8033 to the LordH3068 and namedH7121 it 12The LordH3068 is PeaceH7965. To thisH2088 dayH3117 it is stillH5750 13in OphrahH6084 of the AbiezritesH33.
