Judges 6:30-32

Evangelical Heritage Version

³⁰ So the men of the city said to Joash, “Bring out your son. He must die, because he broke down the altar of Baal and because he cut down the Asherah pole next to it.”

³¹ But Joash said to all those who opposed him, “Will you contend for Baal? Will you save him? Whoever contends for him will be put to death by morning. If he is a god, let him contend for himself if someone broke down his altar.” ³² From that day on they called Gideon “Jerubbaal,”^[a] saying, “Let Baal contend with him, if he broke down his altar.”
