Gideon Is Visited

¹¹ Then ^(A)the angel of the Lord came and sat under the ^[a]oak that was in Ophrah, which belonged to Joash the ^(B)Abiezrite, as his son ^(C)Gideon was beating out wheat in the wine press in order to save it from the Midianites.

⁸ Then Manoah pleaded with the Lord and said, “Lord, please let ^(A)the man of God whom You have sent come to us again so that he may teach us what we are to do for the boy who is to be born.”

¹⁰ So the woman hurried and ran, and told her ^[a]husband, “Behold, ^(A)the man who ^[b]came the other day has appeared to me!” ¹¹ So Manoah got up and followed his wife, and when he came to the man he said to him, “Are you ^(B)the man who spoke to the woman?” And he said, “I am.”
