Judges 6:33-39
33Then all the MidianitesH4080 and the AmalekitesH6002 and the childrenH1121 of the eastH6924 were gatheredH622 togetherH3162, and went overH5674, and pitchedH2583 in the valleyH6010 of JezreelH3157. 34But the SpiritH7307 of YhwhH3068 cameH3847 upon GideonH1439, and he blewH8628 a trumpetH7782; and Abi–ezerH44 was gatheredH2199 afterH310 him.12 35And he sentH7971 messengersH4397 throughout all ManassehH4519; who also was gatheredH2199 afterH310 him: and he sentH7971 messengersH4397 unto AsherH836, and unto ZebulunH2074, and unto NaphtaliH5321; and they came upH5927 to meetH7125 them.3
36And GideonH1439 saidH559 unto GodH430, If thou wiltH3426 saveH3467 IsraelH3478 by mine handH3027, as thou hast saidH1696, 37Behold, I will putH3322 a fleeceH1492 of woolH6785 in the floorH1637; and if the dewH2919 be on the fleeceH1492 only, and it be dryH2721 upon all the earthH776 beside, then shall I knowH3045 that thou wilt saveH3467 IsraelH3478 by mine handH3027, as thou hast saidH1696. 38And it was so: for he rose up earlyH7925 on the morrowH4283, and thrustH2115 the fleeceH1492 togetherH2115, and wringedH4680 the dewH2919 out of the fleeceH1492, a bowlH5602 fullH4393 of waterH4325. 39And GideonH1439 saidH559 unto GodH430, Let not thine angerH639 be hotH2734 against me, and I will speakH1696 but this onceH6471: let me proveH5254, I pray thee, but this onceH6471 with the fleeceH1492; let it now be dryH2721 only upon the fleeceH1492, and upon all the groundH776 let there be dewH2919.
