So the LORD sent a prophet to the Israelites. He said to them,“This is what the LORD God of Israel has said:‘I brought you up from Egypt and took you out of that place of slavery.
I rescued you from Egypt’s power and from the power of all who oppressed you. I drove them out before you and gave their land to you.
I said to you,“I am the LORD your God! Do not worship the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are now living!” But you have disobeyed me.’”
Gideon Meets Some Visitors The LORD’s angel came and sat down under the oak tree in Ophrah owned by Joash the Abiezrite. He arrived while Joash’s son Gideon was threshing wheat in a winepress so he could hide it from the Midianites.
The LORD’s angel appeared and said to him,“The LORD is with you, courageous warrior!”
Gideon said to him,“Pardon me, but if the LORD is with us, why has such disaster overtaken us? Where are all his miraculous deeds our ancestors told us about? They said,‘Did the LORD not bring us up from Egypt?’ But now the LORD has abandoned us and handed us over to Midian.”
Then the LORD himself turned to him and said,“You have the strength. Deliver Israel from the power of the Midianites! Have I not sent you?”
