Judges 9:17-19

The Voice

¹⁷ you know how my father fought for you, risked his life for you, rescued you from the hand of the Midianites. ¹⁸ But now here you are, rising up against my father’s house, killing all of his sons, 70 of them, on one stone; and you have made Abimelech, the son of my father’s slave woman, king over all the leaders of Shechem, simply because he is your kinsman. ¹⁹ Well, I say, if you have acted honorably toward Jerubbaal and his family, then now may you take joy in Abimelech, and may he take joy in you.
