Revised Version 1895
Judges 6:7-16
7And it cameH1961 to passH1961, when the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 criedH2199 unto the LORDH3068 becauseH3588 of MidianH4080,
8that the LORDH3068 sentH7971 a prophetH5030 unto the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478: and he saidH559 unto them, ThusH3541 saith the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, I broughtH3318 youH7971 upH5927 from EgyptH4714, and broughtH3318 youH7971 forthH3318 outH3318 of the houseH1004 of bondageH5650;
9and I deliveredH5337 youH5414 outH1644 of the handH3027 of the EgyptiansH4713, and outH1644 of the handH3027 of allH3605 that oppressedH3905 youH5414, and drave them outH1644 from beforeH6440 youH5414, and gaveH5414 youH5414 their landH776;
10and I saidH559 unto youH859, I am the LORDH3068 your GodH430; ye shall notH3808 fearH3372 the godsH430 of the AmoritesH567, in whoseH834 landH776 ye dwellH3427: but ye have notH3808 hearkened unto my voiceH6963.
11And the angelH4397 of the LORDH3068 cameH935 and satH3427 underH8478 the oakH424 whichH834 was in OphrahH6084, that pertained unto JoashH3101 the AbiezriteH33: and his sonH1121 GideonH1439 was beatingH2251 outH6440 wheatH2406 in the winepress, to hide it from the MidianitesH4080.
12And the angelH4397 of the LORDH3068 appearedH7200 unto him, and saidH559 unto him, The LORDH3068 is with thee, thou mightyH1368 manH1368 of valour.
13And GideonH1439 saidH559 unto him, Oh my lordH3068, ifH834 the LORDH3068 be with usH5414, whyH4100 then is allH3605 this befallenH4672 usH5414? and whereH834 be allH3605 his wondrousH6381 worksH6381 whichH834 our fathersH1 toldH559 usH5414 of, sayingH559, DidH4100 notH3808 the LORDH3068 bringH5927 usH5414 upH5927 from EgyptH4714? but nowH6258 the LORDH3068 hath castH5414 usH5414 offH5414, and deliveredH5414 usH5414 intoH413 the handH3709 of MidianH4080.
14And the LORDH3068 lookedH6437 uponH413 him, and saidH559, GoH7971 in this thy might, and saveH3467 IsraelH3478 from the handH3709 of MidianH4080: have notH3808 I sentH7971 thee?
15And he saidH559 unto him, Oh LordH136, wherewith shall I saveH3467 IsraelH3478? beholdH2009, my familyH1004 is the poorest in ManassehH4519, and I am the leastH6810 in my father’sH1 houseH1004.
16And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto him, SurelyH3588 I will be with thee, and thou shalt smiteH5221 the MidianitesH4080 as one manH376.
