Bible Verses About Gideon: His prayer tests

And Gedeon said to God: If thou wilt save Israel by my hand, as thou hast said,

I will put this fleece of wool on the floor: if there be dew in the fleece only, and it be dry on all the ground beside, I shall know that by my hand, as thou hast said, thou wilt deliver Israel.

And it was so. And rising before day, wringing the fleece, he filled a vessel with the dew.

And he said again to God: Let not thy wrath be kindled against me, if I try once more, seeking a sign in the fleece. I pray that the fleece only may be dry, and all the ground wet with dew.

And God did that night as he had requested: and it was dry on the fleece only, and there was dew on all the ground.
