Sai mala’ikan Ubangiji ya zo ya zauna a ƙarƙashin itacen oak a Ofra na Yowash mutumin Abiyezer, inda ɗansa Gideyon yake sussukar alkama a wurin matsin inabi don yă ɓoye daga Midiyawa.

Sai suka tambayi junansu, “Wa ya yi wannan?” Sa’ad da suka bincika a hankali, sai aka faɗa musu, “Gideyon ɗan Yowash ne ya yi haka.”

Mutanen garin suka ce wa Yowash, “Ka kawo mana ɗanka. Dole yă mutu, domin ya rushe bagaden Ba’al, ya sare ginshiƙin Asheran da yake tsaye kusa da shi.”

Amma Yowash ya ce wa taron da suka tayar masa, “Za ku yi hamayya domin Ba’al ne? Kuna ƙoƙari ku cece shi ne? Duk wanda ya yi faɗa saboda shi za a kashe shi kafin safe. In lalle Ba’al allah ne, zai kāre kansa sa’ad da wani ya rushe bagadensa.”

Abokinsa ya ce, “Ai wannan ba wani abu ba ne fiye da takobin Gideyon ɗan Yowash, mutumin Isra’ila. Allah ya ba da Midiyawa da dukan sansani a hannuwansa.”

Sa’an nan Gideyon ɗan Yowash ya komo daga yaƙi ta Hanyar Heres.

Yerub-Ba’al ɗan Yowash ya koma gida don yă zauna.

Gideyon ɗan Yowash ya rasu da kyakkyawan tsufa aka kuma binne shi a kabarin Yowash mahaifinsa a Ofra na mutanen Abiyezer.
