It happened the same night, that Yahweh said to him, Take your father's bull, even the second bull seven years old, and throw down the altar of Baal that your father has, and cut down the Asherah that is by it;

and build an altar to Yahweh your God on the top of this stronghold, in the orderly manner, and take the second bull, and offer a burnt offering with the wood of the Asherah which you shall cut down.

Then Gideon took ten men of his servants, and did as Yahweh had spoken to him: and it happened, because he feared his father's household and the men of the city, so that he could not do it by day, that he did it by night.

When the men of the city arose early in the morning, behold, the altar of Baal was broken down, and the Asherah was cut down that was by it, and the second bull was offered on the altar that was built.

Joash said to all who stood against him, Will you contend for Baal? Or will you save him? he who will contend for him, let him be put to death while [ergänzt: it is yet] morning: if he be a god, let him contend for himself, because one has broken down his altar.

Gideon said to God, If you will save Israel by my hand, as you have spoken,

הָאֱלֹהִ֑ים (הָ) ha. “<the>”

behold, I will put a fleece of wool on the threshing floor; if there be dew on the fleece only, and it be dry on all the ground, then shall I know that you will save Israel by my hand, as you have spoken.

הַצֶּ֖מֶר (הַ) ha. “<the>”הַגִּזָּ֜ה (הַ) ha. “the”הָאָ֙רֶץ֙ (הָ) ha. “the”

Then Jerubbaal, who is Gideon, and all the people who were with him, rose up early, and encamped beside the spring of Harod: and the camp of Midian was on the north side of them, by the hill of Moreh, in the valley.

הָעָם֙ (הָ) ha. “the”הַמּוֹרֶ֖ה (הַ) ha. “<the>”

Yahweh said to Gideon, The people who are with you are too many for me to give the Midianites into their hand, lest Israel vaunt themselves against me, saying, My own hand has saved me.

הָעָם֙ (הָ) ha. “the”הַגִּלְעָ֑ד (הַ) ha. “<the>”הָעָ֗ם (הָ) ha. “the”

Yahweh said to Gideon, The people are yet too many; bring them down to the water, and I will try them for you there: and it shall be, that of whom I tell you, This shall go with you, the same shall go with you; and of whoever I tell you, This shall not go with you, the same shall not go.

הָעָ֣ם (הָ) ha. “the”הַמַּ֔יִם (הַ) ha. “the”

So he brought down the people to the water: and Yahweh said to Gideon, Everyone who laps of the water with his tongue, as a dog laps, him shall you set by himself; likewise everyone who bows down on his knees to drink.

So the people took food in their hand, and their trumpets; and he sent all the men of Israel every man to his tent, but retained the three hundred men: and the camp of Midian was beneath him in the valley.

הָעָ֨ם (הָ) ha. “the”הָאִ֖ישׁ (הָ) ha. “the”

It happened the same night, that Yahweh said to him, Arise, get you down into the camp; for I have delivered it into your hand.

הַֽמַּחֲנֶֽה׃ (הַֽ) Ha. “the”

and you shall hear what they say; and afterward shall your hands be strengthened to go down into the camp. Then went he down with Purah his servant to the outermost part of the armed men who were in the camp.

הַחֲמֻשִׁ֖ים (הַ) ha. “those”

The Midianites and the Amalekites and all the children of the east lay along in the valley like locusts for multitude; and their camels were without number, as the sand which is on the sea-shore for multitude.
