Judges 6
And the children
<01121>
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
<03478>
evil
<07451>
<07451>
in the sight
<05869>
<05869>
of the LORD
<03068>_:
<03068>_:
and the LORD
<03068>
<03068>

<07651>
years
<08141>_.
<08141>_.
And the hand
<03027>
<03027>
of Midian
<04080>
<04080>
against Israel
<03478>_:
<03478>_:
[and] because
<06440>
<06440>
of the Midianites
<04080>
<04080>
the children

{prevailed: Heb. was strong}<04679>_.
And [so] it was, when Israel

<05804>_,
no sustenance
<04241>
<04241>

{sheep: or goat}<02543>_.
with their cattle
<04735>
<04735>
and their tents
<0168>_,
<0168>_,
as
<01767>
<01767>
grasshoppers
<0697>
<0697>
for multitude
<07230>_;
<07230>_;
[for] both they and their camels
<01581>
<01581>
were without number
<04557>_:
<04557>_:
into the land
<0776>
it.<0776>
And Israel
<03478>
<03478>
was greatly
<03966>
<03966>
because
<06440>
<06440>
of the Midianites

<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
<03478>
unto the LORD
<03068>_.
<03068>_.
And it came to pass, when the children
<01121>
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
<03478>
unto the LORD
<03068>
<03068>
because
<0182>
<0182>
of the Midianites

<04080>_,
That the LORD

{Gideon: Gr. Gedeon} {to hide...: Heb. to cause it to flee}<04080>_.
And the angel
<04397>
<04397>
of the LORD
<03068>
<03068>
unto him, The LORD
<03068>
<03068>

<02428>_.
And Gideon
<01439>
<01439>
unto him, Oh
<0994>
<0994>
my Lord
<0113>_,
<0113>_,
if

<03068>
us into the hands
<03709>
<03709>
of the Midianites
<04080>_.
<04080>_.
And the LORD
<03068>
<03068>
in this thy might
<03581>_,
<03581>_,
Israel
<03478>
<03478>
from the hand

thee?<04080>_:
unto him, Oh
<0994>

<03478>_?
[is] poor
<01800>
<01800>
in Manasseh
<04519>_,
<04519>_,
and I [am] the least

<06810>
in my father's
<01>
<01>
house
<01004>_.
{my family...: Heb. my thousand is the meanest}<01004>_.
And Gideon
<01439>
<01439>
and unleavened cakes

Then the angel

<04397>
of the LORD
<03068>
<03068>

<04397>
of the LORD
<03068>
<03068>
out of his sight

<05869>_.
And when Gideon
<01439>
<01439>
that he [was] an angel
<04397>
<04397>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
<03068>_,
Gideon

<06440>_.
Then Gideon

{Jehovahshalom: that is, The LORD send peace}<033>_.
And it came to pass the same night
<03915>_,
<03915>_,
that the LORD

Then Gideon

Therefore on that day
