Judges 9:8-10

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

⁸ One time the trees went forth to anoint a king over them, and they said to the olive tree, Reign over us.

⁹ But the olive tree said to them, Should I leave my fatness, by which God and man are honored, and go to wave over the trees?

¹⁰ Then the trees said to the fig tree, You come and reign over us.
