12And the angel of the LORD appeared to Gideon and said, “The LORD is with you, O mighty man of valor.”
13“Please, my Lord,” Gideon replied, “if the LORD is with us, why has all this happened to us? And where are all His wonders of which our fathers told us, saying, ‘Has not the LORD brought us up out of Egypt?’ But now the LORD has forsaken us and delivered us into the hand of Midian.”
— Judges 6:12-13
