## Judges 6:39-40 in Context (Verses 36–40 KJV)
 
 [36 ](/kjv/judges/6/36) ¶ And Gideon said unto God, If thou wilt save Israel by mine hand, as thou hast said,
 
 [37 ](/kjv/judges/6/37) Behold, I will put a fleece of wool in the floor; *and* if the dew be on the fleece only, and *it be* dry upon all the earth *beside*, then shall I know that thou wilt save Israel by mine hand, as thou hast said.
 
 [38 ](/kjv/judges/6/38) And it was so: for he rose up early on the morrow, and thrust the fleece together, and wringed the dew out of the fleece, a bowl full of water.
 
 [39 ](/kjv/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.
 
 [40 ](/kjv/judges/6/40) And God did so that night: for it was dry upon the fleece only, and there was dew on all the ground.
