36 And Gedeon sayd vnto God: Yf thou wilt saue Israel by myne hand, as thou hast sayd: 37 Beholde, I wil put a fleece of wool in the treashing place: And if the dewe come on the fleece onely, and it be drye vpon all the earth besyde, then shall I be sure that thou wilt saue Israel by my hand, as thou saydest. 38 And it came so to passe: For he rose vp early on the morowe, & thrust the fleece together, and wrong the dewe therout, and fylled a bowle of water. 39 And Gedeon sayde agayne vnto God: Be not angry with me, that I speake once more, for I wil proue once agayne by the fleece. Let it be drye onely vpon the fleece, and dewe vpon al the ground. 40 And God dyd so that same nyght: For it was drye vpon the fleece only, & there was dewe on all the grounde.
