Judges 6:12-16

[12] And the angel  of the LORD  appeared  unto him, and said  unto him, The LORD  is with thee, thou mighty  man of valour.  [13] And Gideon  said  unto him, Oh  my Lord,  if  the LORD  be with us, why then is all this befallen  us? and where be all his miracles  which our fathers  told  us of, saying,  Did not the LORD  bring us up  from Egypt?  but now the LORD  hath forsaken  us, and delivered  us into the hands  of the Midianites.  [14] And the LORD  looked  upon him, and said,  in this thy might,  and thou shalt save  Israel  from the hand  of the Midianites:  have not I sent  [15] And he said  unto him, Oh  my Lord,  wherewith  shall I save  Israel?  behold, my family  is poor  in Manasseh,  and I am the least  in my father's  house.  [16] And the LORD  said  unto him, Surely I will be with thee, and thou shalt smite  the Midianites  as one  man.
