Judges 9:19-21

EasyEnglish Bible

¹⁹ If you have really been faithful to Gideon and his family today, I pray that Abimelech will make you happy! I pray that you will make Abimelech happy, too! ²⁰ But if you have not been faithful, I pray that Abimelech will destroy you! I pray that his fire will completely burn up the leaders of Shechem and Beth Millo. And I pray that fire from you leaders will completely destroy Abimelech!’

²¹ After he said that, Jotham ran away to Beer. He lived there because he was afraid of his brother, Abimelech.
