Judges 6:28-32

28And when the menH376 of the cityH5892 aroseH7925 earlyH7925 in the morningH1242, beholdH2009, the altarH4196 of BaalH1168 was brokenH5422 downH5422, and the AsherahH842 was cutH3772 downH5422 that was by it, and the secondH8145 bullock was offeredH5927 uponH5921 the altarH4196 that was builtH1129.

29And they saidH559 one to anotherH7453, Who hath doneH6213 this thingH1697? And when they inquiredH1875 and askedH559, they saidH559, GideonH1439 the sonH1121 of JoashH3101 hath doneH6213 this thingH1697.

30Then the menH376 of the cityH5892 saidH559 unto JoashH3101, BringH3318 outH3318 thy sonH1121, that he may dieH4191: becauseH3588 he hath brokenH5422 downH5422 the altarH4196 of BaalH1168, and becauseH3588 he hath cutH3772 downH5422 the AsherahH842 that was by it.

31And JoashH3101 saidH559 unto allH3605 that stoodH5975 againstH5921 him, Will ye pleadH7378 for BaalH1168? or will ye saveH3467 him? he that will pleadH7378 for him, let him be putH4191 to deathH4191 whilst it is yet morningH1242: ifH518 he be a godH430, let him pleadH7378 for himselfH1931, becauseH3588 one hath brokenH5422 downH5422 his altarH4196.

32Therefore on that dayH3117 he calledH7121 him JerubbaalH3378, sayingH559, Let BaalH1168 pleadH7378 againstH7378 him, becauseH3588 he hath brokenH5422 downH5422 his altarH4196.
