Judges 6:11-13
1599 Geneva Bible
11 ¶ And the Angel of the Lord came, and sat under the oak which was in Ophrah, that pertained unto Joash the father of the Abiezrites, and his son Gideon threshed wheat by the winepress, [a]to hide it from the Midianites.
12 Then the Angel of the Lord appeared unto him, and said unto him, The Lord is with thee, thou valiant man.
13 To whom Gideon answered, [b]Ah my Lord, if the Lord be with us, why then is all this come upon us? and where be all his miracles which our fathers told us of, and said, Did not the Lord bring us out [of] Egypt? but now the Lord hath forsaken us, and delivered us into the hand of the Midianites.
