Judges 9:19-21

Easy-to-Read Version

¹⁹ So if you have been completely honest to Gideon and his family today, then may you be happy with Abimelech as your king. And may he be happy with you. ²⁰ But leaders of Shechem and the house of Millo,^[a] if you have not acted right, may Abimelech destroy you. And may Abimelech be destroyed too!”

²¹ After Jotham had said this, he ran away and escaped to the city named Beer. He stayed there because he was afraid of his brother Abimelech.
