Judges 6:39

And Gideon said unto God, Let not thine anger be hot against me, and I will speak but this once: let me prove, I pray thee, but this once with the fleece; let it now be dry only upon the fleece, and upon all the ground let there be dew.

And Gideon {H1439} said {H559} unto God {H430}, Let not thine anger {H639} be hot {H2734} against me, and I will speak {H1696} but this once {H6471}: let me prove {H5254}, I pray thee, but this once {H6471} with the fleece {H1492}; let it now be dry {H2721} only upon the fleece {H1492}, and upon all the ground {H776} let there be dew {H2919}.

But Gid'on said to God, "Don't be angry with me because I am asking one more thing, let me make one more test, please: this time let it be dry only on the fleece, with dew all over the ground."

Then Gideon said to God, “Do not be angry with me; let me speak one more time. Please allow me one more test with the fleece. This time let it be dry, and the ground covered with dew.”

And Gideon said unto God, Let not thine anger be kindled against me, and I will speak but this once: let me make trial, I pray thee, but this once with the fleece; let it now be dry only upon the fleece, and upon all the ground let there be dew.
