Judges 6:26-28

Expanded Bible

²⁶ Then build an altar to the Lord your God ·with its stones in the right order [or in the proper manner] on this ·high ground [stronghold]. ·Kill and burn a [Sacrifice as a burnt offering the] second bull on this altar, using the wood from the Asherah idol.”

²⁷ So Gideon got ten of his servants and did what the Lord had told him to do. But Gideon was afraid that his family and the men of the city might see him, so he did it at night, not in the daytime.

²⁸ When the men of the city got up the next morning, ·they saw that [^Llook; ^Tbehold] the altar for Baal ·had been destroyed [^Lwas cut down] and that the ·Asherah idol [Asherah pole; ^LAsherah; v. 25] beside it had been cut down! They also saw the altar Gideon had built and the second bull that had been sacrificed on it.
