Judges 6:7-16

7And it came to pass, when the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 criedH2199 to the LORDH3068 becauseH182 of the MidianitesH4080, 8That the LORDH3068 sentH7971 a prophetH376H5030 to the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, who saidH559 to them, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, I brought you upH5927 from EgyptH4714, and brought you forthH3318 from the houseH1004 of bondageH5650;1 9And I deliveredH5337 you from the handH3027 of the EgyptiansH4714, and from the handH3027 of all that oppressedH3905 you, and drove them outH1644 from beforeH6440 you, and gaveH5414 you their landH776; 10And I saidH559 to you, I am the LORDH3068 your GodH430; fearH3372 not the godsH430 of the AmoritesH567, in whose landH776 ye dwellH3427: but ye have not obeyedH8085 my voiceH6963.

11And there cameH935 an angelH4397 of the LORDH3068, and satH3427 under an oakH424 which was in OphrahH6084, that pertained to JoashH3101 the AbiezriteH33: and his sonH1121 GideonH1439 threshedH2251 wheatH2406 by the winepressH1660, to hideH5127 it fromH6440 the MidianitesH4080.23 12And the angelH4397 of the LORDH3068 appearedH7200 to him, and saidH559 to him, The LORDH3068 is with thee, thou mightyH1368 man of valourH2428. 13And GideonH1439 saidH559 to him, OH994 my LordH113, ifH3426 the LORDH3068 is with us, why then hath all this befallenH4672 us? and where are all his miraclesH6381 which our fathersH1 toldH5608 us of, sayingH559, Did not the LORDH3068 bring us upH5927 from EgyptH4714? but now the LORDH3068 hath forsakenH5203 us, and deliveredH5414 us into the handsH3709 of the MidianitesH4080. 14And the LORDH3068 lookedH6437 upon him, and saidH559, GoH3212 in this thy mightH3581, and thou shalt saveH3467 IsraelH3478 from the handH3709 of the MidianitesH4080: have not I sentH7971 thee? 15And he saidH559 to him, OH994 my LordH136, howH4100 shall I saveH3467 IsraelH3478? behold, my familyH504H505 is poorH1800 in ManassehH4519, and I am the leastH6810 in my father’sH1 houseH1004.4 16And the LORDH3068 saidH559 to him, Surely I will be with thee, and thou shalt smiteH5221 the MidianitesH4080 as oneH259 manH376.
