[1] Abimelech the son of Jerubbaal went to Shechem to his mother’s brothers, and spoke with them and with all the family of the house of his mother’s father, saying, [2] “Please speak in the ears of all the men of Shechem, ‘Is it better for you that all the sons of Jerubbaal, who are seventy persons, rule over you, or that one rule over you?’ Remember also that I am your bone and your flesh.” [3] His mother’s brothers spoke of him in the ears of all the men of Shechem all these words. Their hearts inclined to follow Abimelech; for they said, “He is our brother.” [4] They gave him seventy pieces of silver out of the house of Baal Berith, with which Abimelech hired vain and reckless fellows who followed him. [5] He went to his father’s house at Ophrah, and killed his brothers the sons of Jerubbaal, being seventy persons, on one stone; but Jotham the youngest son of Jerubbaal was left, for he hid himself. [6] All the men of Shechem assembled themselves together with all the house of Millo, and went and made Abimelech king by the oak of the pillar that was in Shechem. [7] When they told it to Jotham, he went and stood on the top of Mount Gerizim and lifted up his voice, cried out, and said to them, “Listen to me, you men of Shechem, that God may listen to you. [8] The trees set out to anoint a king over themselves. They said to the olive tree, ‘Reign over us.’ [9] “But the olive tree said to them, ‘Should I stop producing my oil, with which they honor God and man by me, and go to wave back and forth over the trees?’ [10] “The trees said to the fig tree, ‘Come and reign over us.’ [11] “But the fig tree said to them, ‘Should I leave my sweetness, and my good fruit, and go to wave back and forth over the trees?’ [12] “The trees said to the vine, ‘Come and reign over us.’ [13] “The vine said to them, ‘Should I leave my new wine, which cheers God and man, and go to wave back and forth over the trees?’ [14] “Then all the trees said to the bramble, ‘Come and reign over us.’ [15] “The bramble said to the trees, ‘If in truth you anoint me king over you, then come and take refuge in my shade; and if not, let fire come out of the bramble, and devour the cedars of Lebanon.’ [16] “Now therefore, if you have dealt truly and righteously, in that you have made Abimelech king, and if you have dealt well with Jerubbaal and his house, and have done to him according to the deserving of his hands [17] (for my father fought for you, risked his life, and delivered you out of the hand of Midian; [18] and you have risen up against my father’s house today and have slain his sons, seventy persons, on one stone, and have made Abimelech, the son of his female servant, king over the men of Shechem, because he is your brother); [19] if you then have dealt truly and righteously with Jerubbaal and with his house today, then rejoice in Abimelech, and let him also rejoice in you; [20] but if not, let fire come out from Abimelech and devour the men of Shechem and the house of Millo; and let fire come out from the men of Shechem and from the house of Millo and devour Abimelech.” [21] Jotham ran away and fled, and went to Beerⓘ and lived there, for fear of Abimelech his brother. [22] Abimelech was prince over Israel three years. [23] Then God sent an evil spirit between Abimelech and the men of Shechem; and the men of Shechem dealt treacherously with Abimelech, [24] that the violence done to the seventy sons of Jerubbaal might come, and that their blood might be laid on Abimelech their brother who killed them, and on the men of Shechem who strengthened his hands to kill his brothers. [25] The men of Shechem set an ambush for him on the tops of the mountains, and they robbed all who came along that way by them; and Abimelech was told about it. [26] Gaal the son of Ebed came with his brothers and went over to Shechem; and the men of Shechem put their trust in him. [27] They went out into the field, harvested their vineyards, trod the grapes, celebrated, and went into the house of their god and ate and drank, and cursed Abimelech. [28] Gaal the son of Ebed said, “Who is Abimelech, and who is Shechem, that we should serve him? Isn’t he the son of Jerubbaal? Isn’t Zebul his officer? Serve the men of Hamor the father of Shechem, but why should we serve him? [29] I wish that this people were under my hand! Then I would remove Abimelech.” He said to Abimelech, “Increase your army and come out!” [30] When Zebul the ruler of the city heard the words of Gaal the son of Ebed, his anger burned. [31] He sent messengers to Abimelech craftily, saying, “Behold, Gaal the son of Ebed and his brothers have come to Shechem; and behold, they incite the city against you. [32] Now therefore, go up by night, you and the people who are with you, and lie in wait in the field. [33] It shall be that in the morning, as soon as the sun is up, you shall rise early and rush on the city. Behold, when he and the people who are with him come out against you, then may you do to them as you shall find occasion.” [34] Abimelech rose up, and all the people who were with him, by night, and they laid wait against Shechem in four companies. [35] Gaal the son of Ebed went out, and stood in the entrance of the gate of the city. Abimelech rose up, and the people who were with him, from the ambush. [36] When Gaal saw the people, he said to Zebul, “Behold, people are coming down from the tops of the mountains.”Zebul said to him, “You see the shadows of the mountains as if they were men.” [37] Gaal spoke again and said, “Behold, people are coming down by the middle of the land, and one company comes by the way of the oak of Meonenim.” [38] Then Zebul said to him, “Now where is your mouth, that you said, ‘Who is Abimelech, that we should serve him?’ Isn’t this the people that you have despised? Please go out now and fight with them.” [39] Gaal went out before the men of Shechem, and fought with Abimelech. [40] Abimelech chased him, and he fled before him, and many fell wounded, even to the entrance of the gate. [41] Abimelech lived at Arumah; and Zebul drove out Gaal and his brothers, that they should not dwell in Shechem. [42] On the next day, the people went out into the field; and they told Abimelech. [43] He took the people and divided them into three companies, and laid wait in the field; and he looked, and behold, the people came out of the city. So, he rose up against them and struck them. [44] Abimelech and the companies that were with him rushed forward and stood in the entrance of the gate of the city; and the two companies rushed on all who were in the field and struck them. [45] Abimelech fought against the city all that day; and he took the city and killed the people in it. He beat down the city and sowed it with salt. [46] When all the men of the tower of Shechem heard of it, they entered into the stronghold of the house of Elberith. [47] Abimelech was told that all the men of the tower of Shechem were gathered together. [48] Abimelech went up to Mount Zalmon, he and all the people who were with him; and Abimelech took an ax in his hand, and cut down a bough from the trees, and took it up, and laid it on his shoulder. Then he said to the people who were with him, “What you have seen me do, make haste, and do as I have done!” [49] All the people likewise each cut down his bough, followed Abimelech, and put them at the base of the stronghold, and set the stronghold on fire over them, so that all the people of the tower of Shechem died also, about a thousand men and women. [50] Then Abimelech went to Thebez and encamped against Thebez, and took it. [51] But there was a strong tower within the city, and all the men and women of the city fled there, and shut themselves in, and went up to the roof of the tower. [52] Abimelech came to the tower and fought against it, and came near to the door of the tower to burn it with fire. [53] A certain woman cast an upper millstone on Abimelech’s head, and broke his skull. [54] Then he called hastily to the young man, his armor bearer, and said to him, “Draw your sword and kill me, that men not say of me, ‘A woman killed him.’ His young man thrust him through, and he died.” [55] When the men of Israel saw that Abimelech was dead, they each departed to his place. [56] Thus God repaid the wickedness of Abimelech, which he did to his father in killing his seventy brothers; [57] and God repaid all the wickedness of the men of Shechem on their heads; and the curse of Jotham the son of Jerubbaal came on them.

His Son

[1] And Abimelech H40 the son H1121 of Jerubbaal H3378 went H3212 to Shechem H7927 unto H413 his mother’s H517 brethren, H251 and communed H1696 with them, H413 and with H413 all H3605 the family H4940 of the house H1004 of his mother’s H517 father, H1 saying, H559 [2] Speak, H1696 I pray you, H4994 in the ears H241 of all H3605 the men H1167 of Shechem, H7927 Whether H4100 is better H2896 for you, either that all H3605 the sons H1121 of Jerubbaal, H3378 which are threescore and ten H7657 persons, H376 reign H4910 over you, or H518 that one H376 H259 reign H4910 over you? remember H2142 also that H3588 I H589 am your bone H6106 and your flesh. H1320 [3] And his mother’s H517 brethren H251 spake H1696 of him H5921 in the ears H241 of all H3605 the men H1167 of Shechem H7927 H853 all H3605 these H428 words: H1697 and their hearts H3820 inclined H5186 to follow H310§ Abimelech; H40 for H3588 they said, H559 He H1931 is our brother. H251 [4] And they gave H5414 him threescore and ten H7657 pieces of silver H3701 out of the house H1004 of Baal-berith, H1170 wherewith Abimelech H40 hired H7936 vain H7386 and light H6348 persons, H582 which followed H3212 him. H310 [5] And he went H935 unto his father’s H1 house H1004 at Ophrah, H6084 and slew H2026 H853 his brethren H251 the sons H1121 of Jerubbaal, H3378 being threescore and ten H7657 persons, H376 upon H5921 one H259 stone: H68 notwithstanding yet Jotham H3147 the youngest H6996 son H1121 of Jerubbaal H3378 was left; H3498 for H3588 he hid himself. H2244 [6] And all H3605 the men H1167 of Shechem H7927 gathered together, H622 and all H3605 the house of Millo, H1037 and went, H3212 and made H4427 H853 Abimelech H40 king, H4428 by H5973 the plain H436 of the pillar H5324§ that H834 was in Shechem. H7927 [7] And when they told H5046 it to Jotham, H3147 he went H3212 and stood H5975 in the top H7218 of mount H2022 Gerizim, H1630 and lifted up H5375 his voice, H6963 and cried, H7121 and said H559 unto them, Hearken H8085 unto me, H413 ye men H1167 of Shechem, H7927 that God H430 may hearken H8085 unto you. H413 [8] The trees H6086 went forth H1980 H1980 on a time to anoint H4886 a king H4428 over them; H5921 and they said H559 unto the olive tree, H2132 Reign thou H4427 over us. H5921 [9] But the olive tree H2132 said H559 unto them, Should I leave H2308 H853 my fatness, H1880 wherewith H834 by me they honour H3513 God H430 and man, H582 and go H1980 to be promoted H5128 over H5921 the trees? H6086§ [10] And the trees H6086 said H559 to the fig tree, H8384 Come H3212 thou, H859 and reign H4427 over us. H5921 [11] But the fig tree H8384 said H559 unto them, Should I forsake H2308 H853 my sweetness, H4987 and H853 my H8570 good H2896 fruit, H8570 and go H1980 to be promoted H5128 over H5921 the trees? H6086 [12] Then said H559 the trees H6086 unto the vine, H1612 Come H3212 thou, H859 and reign H4427 over us. H5921 [13] And the vine H1612 said H559 unto them, Should I leave H2308 H853 my wine, H8492 which cheereth H8055 God H430 and man, H582 and go H1980 to be promoted H5128 over H5921 the trees? H6086 [14] Then said H559 all H3605 the trees H6086 unto H413 the bramble, H329§ Come H3212 thou, H859 and reign H4427 over us. H5921 [15] And the bramble H329 said H559 unto H413 the trees, H6086 If H518 in truth H571 ye H859 anoint H4886 me H853 king H4428 over you, H5921 then come H935 and put your trust H2620 in my shadow: H6738 and if H518 not, H369 let H3318 fire H784 come out H3318 of H4480 the bramble, H329 and devour H398 H853 the cedars H730 of Lebanon. H3844 [16] Now H6258 therefore, if H518 ye have done H6213 truly H571 and sincerely, H8549 in that ye have made H4427 H853 Abimelech H40 king, H4427 and if H518 ye have dealt H6213 well H2896 with H5973 Jerubbaal H3378 and H5973 his house, H1004 and H518 have done H6213 unto him according to the deserving H1576 of his hands; H3027 [17] (for H834 my father H1 fought H3898 for you, H5921 and adventured H7993 H853 his life H5315§ far, H5048 and delivered H5337 you H853 out of the hand H3027 of Midian: H4080 [18] and ye H859 are risen up H6965 against H5921 my father’s H1 house H1004 this day, H3117 and have slain H2026 H853 his sons, H1121 threescore and ten H7657 persons, H376 upon H5921 one H259 stone, H68 and have made H4427 H853 Abimelech, H40 the son H1121 of his maidservant, H519 king H4427 over H5921 the men H1167 of Shechem, H7927 because H3588 he H1931 is your brother;) H251 [19] if H518 ye then have dealt H6213 truly H571 and sincerely H8549 with H5973 Jerubbaal H3378 and with H5973 his house H1004 this H2088 day, H3117 then rejoice ye H8055 in Abimelech, H40 and let H8055 him H1931 also H1571 rejoice H8055 in you: [20] but if H518 not, H369 let H3318 fire H784 come out H3318 from Abimelech, H40 and devour H398 H853 the men H1167 of Shechem, H7927 and H853 the house of Millo; H1037 and let H3318 fire H784 come out H3318 from the men H1167 of Shechem, H7927 and from the house of Millo, H1037 and devour H398 H853 Abimelech. H40 [21] And Jotham H3147 ran away, H5127 and fled, H1272 and went H3212 to Beer, H876 and dwelt H3427 there, H8033 for fear H6440 of Abimelech H40 his brother. H251

The Men of Shechem

[22] When Abimelech H40 had reigned H7786 three H7969 years H8141 over H5921 Israel, H3478 [23] then God H430 sent H7971 an evil H7451 spirit H7307 between H996 Abimelech H40 and H996 the men H1167 of Shechem; H7927 and the men H1167 of Shechem H7927 dealt treacherously H898 with Abimelech: H40 [24] that the cruelty H2555 done to the threescore and ten H7657 sons H1121 of Jerubbaal H3378 might come, H935 and their blood H1818 be laid H7760 upon H5921 Abimelech H40 their brother, H251 which H834 slew H2026 them; H853 and upon H5921 the men H1167 of Shechem, H7927 which H834 aided H2388 H853 him H3027 in the killing H2026§ H853 of his brethren. H251 [25] And the men H1167 of Shechem H7927 set H7760 liers in wait H693 for him in H5921 the top H7218 of the mountains, H2022 and they robbed H1497 H853 all H3605 that H834 came H5674 along that way H1870 by them: H5921 and it was told H5046 Abimelech. H40 [26] And Gaal H1603 the son H1121 of Ebed H5651 came H935 with his brethren, H251 and went over H5674 to Shechem: H7927 and the men H1167 of Shechem H7927 put their confidence H982 in him. [27] And they went out H3318 into the fields, H7704 and gathered H1219 H853 their vineyards, H3754 and trode H1869 the grapes, and made H6213 merry, H1974§ and went H935 into the house H1004 of their god, H430 and did eat H398 and drink, H8354 and cursed H7043 H853 Abimelech. H40 [28] And Gaal H1603 the son H1121 of Ebed H5651 said, H559 Who H4310 is Abimelech, H40 and who H4310 is Shechem, H7927 that H3588 we should serve him? H5647 is not H3808 he the son H1121 of Jerubbaal? H3378 and Zebul H2083 his officer? H6496 serve H5647 H853 the men H582 of Hamor H2544 the father H1 of Shechem: H7927 for why H4069 should H5647 we H587 serve him? H5647 [29] And would to God H4310 H5414 H853 this H2088 people H5971 were under my hand! H3027 then would I remove H5493 H853 Abimelech. H40 And he said H559 to Abimelech, H40 Increase H7235 thine army, H6635 and come out. H3318 [30] And when Zebul H2083 the ruler H8269 of the city H5892 heard H8085 H853 the words H1697 of Gaal H1603 the son H1121 of Ebed, H5651 his anger H639 was kindled. H2734§ [31] And he sent H7971 messengers H4397 unto H413 Abimelech H40 privily, H8649§ saying, H559 Behold, H2009 Gaal H1603 the son H1121 of Ebed H5651 and his brethren H251 be come H935 to Shechem; H7927 and, behold, they H2009 fortify H6696 H853 the city H5892 against thee. H5921 [32] Now H6258 therefore up H6965 by night, H3915 thou H859 and the people H5971 that H834 is with thee, H854 and lie in wait H693 in the field: H7704 [33] and it shall be, H1961 that in the morning, H1242 as soon as the sun H8121 is up, H2224 thou shalt rise early, H7925 and set H6584 upon H5921 the city: H5892 and, behold, H2009 when he H1931 and the people H5971 that H834 is with him H854 come out H3318 against thee, H413 then mayest thou do H6213 to them as H834 thou H3027 shalt find§ occasion. H4672 [34] And Abimelech H40 rose up, H6965 and all H3605 the people H5971 that H834 were with him, H5973 by night, H3915 and they laid wait H693 against H5921 Shechem H7927 in four H702 companies. H7218 [35] And Gaal H1603 the son H1121 of Ebed H5651 went out, H3318 and stood H5975 in the entering H6607 of the gate H8179 of the city: H5892 and Abimelech H40 rose up, H6965 and the people H5971 that H834 were with him, H854 from H4480 lying in wait. H3993 [36] And when Gaal H1603 saw H7200 H853 the people, H5971 he said H559 to H413 Zebul, H2083 Behold, H2009 there come H3381 people H5971 down H3381 from the top H7218 of the mountains. H2022 And Zebul H2083 said H559 unto him, H413 Thou H859 seest H7200 H853 the shadow H6738 of the mountains H2022 as if they were men. H582 [37] And Gaal H1603 spake H1696 again H3254 H5750 and said, H559 See H2009 there come H3381 people H5971 down H3381 by H5973 the middle H2872§ of the land, H776 and another H259 company H7218 come H935 along by H1870 the plain H436 of Meonenim. H6049§ [38] Then said H559 Zebul H2083 unto him, H413 Where H346 is now H645 thy mouth, H6310 wherewith H834 thou saidst, H559 Who H4310 is Abimelech, H40 that H3588 we should serve him? H5647 is not H3808 this H2088 the people H5971 that H834 thou hast despised? H3988 go out, H3318 I pray H4994 now, H6258 and fight H3898 with them. [39] And Gaal H1603 went out H3318 before H6440 the men H1167 of Shechem, H7927 and fought H3898 with Abimelech. H40 [40] And Abimelech H40 chased him, H7291 and he fled H5127 before him, H6440 and many H7227 were overthrown H5307 and wounded, H2491 even unto H5704 the entering H6607 of the gate. H8179 [41] And Abimelech H40 dwelt H3427 at Arumah: H725 and Zebul H2083 thrust out H1644 H853 Gaal H1603 and H853 his brethren, H251 that they should not dwell H3427 in Shechem. H7927 [42] And it came to pass H1961 on the morrow, H4283 that the people H5971 went out H3318 into the field; H7704 and they told H5046 Abimelech. H40 [43] And he took H3947 H853 the people, H5971 and divided them H2673 into three H7969 companies, H7218 and laid wait H693 in the field, H7704 and looked, H7200 and, behold, H2009 the people H5971 were come forth H3318 out of H4480 the city; H5892 and he rose up H6965 against them, H5921 and smote them. H5221 [44] And Abimelech, H40 and the company H7218 that H834 was with him, H5973 rushed forward, H6584 and stood H5975 in the entering H6607 of the gate H8179 of the city: H5892 and the two H8147 other companies H7218 ran H6584 upon H5921 all H3605 the people that H834 were in the fields, H7704 and slew them. H5221 [45] And Abimelech H40 fought H3898 against the city H5892 all H3605 that H1931 day; H3117 and he took H3920 H853 the city, H5892 and slew H2026 H853 the people H5971 that H834 was therein, and beat down H5422 H853 the city, H5892 and sowed H2232 it H2232 with salt. H4417 [46] And when all H3605 the men H1167 of the tower H4026 of Shechem H7927 heard H8085 that, they entered H935 into H413 an hold H6877 of the house H1004 of the god H410 Berith. H1286 [47] And it was told H5046 Abimelech, H40 that H3588 all H3605 the men H1167 of the tower H4026 of Shechem H7927 were gathered together. H6908 [48] And Abimelech H40 gat him up H5927 to mount H2022 Zalmon, H6756 he H1931 and all H3605 the people H5971 that H834 were with him; H854 and Abimelech H40 took H3947 H853 an axe H7134 in his hand, H3027 and cut down H3772 a bough H7754 from the trees, H6086 and took it, H5375 and laid H7760 it on H5921 his shoulder, H7926 and said H559 unto H413 the people H5971 that H834 were with him, H5973 What H4100 ye have seen H7200 me do, H6213§ make haste, H4116 and do H6213 as I H3644 have done. [49] And all H3605 the people H5971 likewise H1571 cut down H3772 every man H376 his bough, H7754 and followed H3212 H310 Abimelech, H40 and put H7760 them to H5921 the hold, H6877 and set H3341 H853 the hold H6877 on fire H784 upon them; H5921 so that all H3605 the men H582 of the tower H4026 of Shechem H7927 died H4191 also, H1571 about a thousand H505 men H376 and women. H802 [50] Then went H3212 Abimelech H40 to H413 Thebez, H8405 and encamped H2583 against Thebez, H8405 and took it. H3920 [51] But there was H1961 a strong H5797 tower H4026 within H8432 the city, H5892 and thither H8033 fled H5127 all H3605 the men H582 and women, H802 and all H3605 they H1167 of the city, H5892 and shut H5462 it to them, H1157 and gat them up H5927 to H5921 the top H1406 of the tower. H4026 [52] And Abimelech H40 came H935 unto H5704 the tower, H4026 and fought H3898 against it, and went hard H5066 unto H5704 the door H6607 of the tower H4026 to burn H8313 it H8313 with fire. H784 [53] And a certain H259 woman H802 cast H7993 a piece H6400 of a millstone H7393 upon H5921 Abimelech’s H40 head, H7218 and all to brake H7533 H853 his skull. H1538 [54] Then he called H7121 hastily H4120 unto H413 the young man H5288 his armourbearer, H5375 H3627 and said H559 unto him, Draw H8025 thy sword, H2719 and slay me, H4191 that H6435 men say H559 not H6435 of me, A woman H802 slew him. H2026 And his young man H5288 thrust him through, H1856 and he died. H4191 [55] And when the men H376 of Israel H3478 saw H7200 that H3588 Abimelech H40 was dead, H4191 they departed H3212 every man H376 unto his place. H4725 [56] Thus God H430 rendered H7725 H853 the wickedness H7451 of Abimelech, H40 which H834 he did H6213 unto his father, H1 in slaying H2026 H853 his seventy H7657 brethren: H251 [57] and H853 all H3605 the evil H7451 of the men H582 of Shechem H7927 did God H430 render H7725 upon their heads: H7218 and upon them H413 came H935 the curse H7045 of Jotham H3147 the son H1121 of Jerubbaal.
