2 Jehovah now said to Gidʹe·on: “The people who are with you are too many for me to give Midʹi·an into their hand.+ Perhaps Israel would brag+ about itself against me, saying, ‘My hand it was that saved me.’+

6 So Jonʹa·than* said to the attendant, his armor-bearer: “Do come and let us cross over to the outpost of these uncircumcised+ men. Perhaps Jehovah will work for us, for there is no hindrance to Jehovah to save by many or by few.”+

14 “Do not be afraid, you worm+ Jacob, YOU men* of Israel.+ I myself will help you,”* is the utterance of Jehovah, even your Repurchaser,+ the Holy One of Israel.

34 stayed the force of fire,+ escaped the edge* of the sword,+ from a weak state were made powerful,+ became valiant in war,+ routed the armies of foreigners.+
