Judges 9:37-39

International Standard Version

³⁷ Gaal spoke up again to say, “Look! People are coming down from the highest part of the land, and there’s a company approaching from the diviner’s oak tree.”^[a]

³⁸ So Zebul replied, “Right... So where’s your boasting now? You said, ‘Who is Abimelech? Should we serve him?’ Isn’t this the army that you insulted? So go out right now and fight them!”

³⁹ So Gaal went out in full view of the “lords” of Shechem and fought Abimelech.
