Judges 6:25-27

American Standard Version

²⁵ And it came to pass the same night, that Jehovah said unto him, Take thy father’s bullock, ^[a]even the second bullock seven years old, and throw down the altar of Baal that thy father hath, and cut down the Asherah that is ^[b]by it; ²⁶ and build an altar unto Jehovah thy God upon the top of this stronghold, ^[c]in the orderly manner, and take the second bullock, and offer a burnt-offering with the wood of the Asherah which thou shalt cut down. ²⁷ Then Gideon took ten men of his servants, and did as Jehovah had spoken unto him: and it came to pass, because he feared his father’s household and the men of the city, so that he could not do it by day, that he did it by night.
