And he said, "Behold, I had a dream; a loaf of barley bread was tumbling into the camp of Midian, and it came to the tent and struck it so that it fell, and turned it upside down so that the tent lay flat."His friend replied, "This is nothing less than the sword of Gideon the son of Joash, a man of Israel; God has given Midian and all the camp ainto his hand."When Gideon heard the account of the dream and its interpretation, he bowed in worship. He returned to the camp of Israel and said, "Arise, for the Lord has given the camp of Midian into your hands."Now the same night it came about that the Lord said to him, "Arise, go down against the camp, afor I have given it into your hands.

The Lord said to Gideon, "The people who are with you are too many for Me to give Midian into their hands, afor Israel would become boastful, saying, 'My own power has delivered me.'"Now therefore come, proclaim in the hearing of the people, saying, 'aWhoever is afraid and trembling, let him return and depart from Mount Gilead.'" So 22,000 people returned, but 10,000 remained.aThen the Lord said to Gideon, "The people are still too many; bring them down to the water and I will test them for you there. Therefore it shall be that he of whom I say to you, 'This one shall go with you,' he shall go with you; but everyone of whom I say to you, 'This one shall not go with you,' he shall not go."

When he arose early the next morning and squeezed the fleece, he drained the dew from the fleece, a bowl full of water.Then Gideon said to God, "aDo not let Your anger burn against me that I may speak once more; please let me make a test once more with the fleece, let it now be dry only on the fleece, and let there be dew on all the ground."God did so that night; for it was dry only on the fleece, and dew was on all the ground.

Whoever will plead for him shall be put to death by morning. If he is a god, let him contend for himself, because someone has torn down his altar."Therefore on that day he named him aJerubbaal, that is to say, "Let Baal contend against him," because he had torn down his altar.
