said°°
unto°
him, Oh°
my Lord,°

looked°°
upon°
him, and said,°°
Go°°
in°

Then Gideon°
took°°
ten°
men°°
of his servants,°°

as°
the LORD°

And Joash said unto all that stood against him, Will ye contend for Baal? Or will ye save him? he that will contend for him, let him be put to death whilst [it is yet] morning: if he be a god, let him contend for himself, because one hath broken down his altar. |
|
6:31
And Joash°
said°°
unto all°
that°
stood°°
against°
him, Will ye°
plead°°
for Baal?°
will ye°

if°
he°
[be] a god,°
let him plead°°

|
6:36 ¶
And Gideon°
said°°
unto°
God,°
If°
thou°
wilt°
save°°°
Israel°
by mine hand,°
as°
thou hast said,°° |
|
6:37
behold, I will put a fleece of wool on the threshing-floor; if there be dew on the fleece only, and it be dry upon all the ground, then shall I know that thou wilt save Israel by my hand, as thou hast spoken. |
|
6:37
Behold,°
I°
will put°°°
a fleece°
of wool°
in the floor;°
[and] if°
the dew°
be°
on°
the fleece°
only,°
and [it be] dry°
upon°
all°
the earth°
[beside], then shall I know°°
that°
thou wilt save°°°
Israel°
by mine hand,°
as°
thou hast said.°° |
|
6:38

6:38
And it was°
so:°
for he rose up early°°
on the morrow,°°
and thrust°°°
the fleece°
together,°°
and wringed°°
the dew°
out of°
the fleece,°
a bowl°
full°°
of water.° |
|
6:39
And Gideon said unto God, Let not thine anger be kindled against me, and I will speak but this once: let me make trial, I pray thee, but this once with the fleece; let it now be dry only upon the fleece, and upon all the ground let there be dew. |
|
6:39
And Gideon°
said°°
unto°
God,°
Let not°
thine anger°
be hot°°
against me, and I will speak°°
but°
this once:°
let me prove,°°
I pray thee,°
but°
this once°
with the fleece;°
let it now°
be°
dry°
only°
upon°
the fleece,°
and upon°
all°
the ground°
let there be°
dew.° |
