Judges 6:26-28

New English Translation

²⁶ Then build an altar for the Lord your God on the top of this stronghold according to the proper pattern.^[a] Take the second bull and offer it as a burnt sacrifice on the wood from the Asherah pole that you cut down.” ²⁷ So Gideon took ten of his servants^[b] and did just as the Lord had told him. He was too afraid of his father’s family^[c] and the men of the city to do it in broad daylight, so he waited until nighttime.^[d]

²⁸ When the men of the city got up the next morning, they saw^[e] the Baal altar pulled down, the nearby Asherah pole cut down, and the second bull sacrificed on the newly built altar.
