Judges 9:26-35

And Gaal
<01603>
the son
<01121>
of Ebed
<05651>
came
<0935> (8799)
with his brethren
<0251>_,
and went over
<05674> (8799)
to Shechem
<07927>_:
and the men
<01167>
of Shechem
<07927>
put their confidence
<0982> (8799)
in him.
And they went out
<03318> (8799)
into the fields
<07704>_,
and gathered
<01219> (8799)
their vineyards
<03754>_,
and trode
<01869> (8799)
[the grapes], and made
<06213> (8799)
merry
<01974>_,
and went
<0935> (8799)
into the house
<01004>
of their god
<0430>_,
and did eat
<0398> (8799)
and drink
<08354> (8799)_,
and cursed
<07043> (8762)
Abimelech
<040>_.
{merry: or, songs}
And Gaal
<01603>
the son
<01121>
of Ebed
<05651>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Who [is] Abimelech
<040>_,
and who [is] Shechem
<07927>_,
that we should serve
<05647> (8799)
him? [is] not [he] the son
<01121>
of Jerubbaal
<03378>_?
and Zebul
<02083>
his officer
<06496>_?
serve
<05647> (8798)
the men
<0582>
of Hamor
<02544>
the father
<01>
of Shechem
<07927>_:
for why should we serve
<05647> (8799)
him?
And would to God this people
<05971>
were under
<05414> (8799)
my hand
<03027>_!
then would I remove
<05493> (8686)
Abimelech
<040>_.
And he said
<0559> (8799)
to Abimelech
<040>_,
Increase
<07235> (8761)
thine army
<06635>_,
and come out
<03318> (8798)_.
And when Zebul
<02083>
the ruler
<08269>
of the city
<05892>
heard
<08085> (8799)
the words
<01697>
of Gaal
<01603>
the son
<01121>
of Ebed
<05651>_,
his anger
<0639>
was kindled
<02734> (8799)_.
{kindled: or, hot}
And he sent
<07971> (8799)
messengers
<04397>
unto Abimelech
<040>
privily
<08649>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Behold, Gaal
<01603>
the son
<01121>
of Ebed
<05651>
and his brethren
<0251>
be come
<0935> (8802)
to Shechem
<07927>_;
and, behold, they fortify
<06696> (8802)
the city
<05892>
against thee. {privily: Heb. craftily or, to Tormah}
Now therefore up
<06965> (8798)
by night
<03915>_,
thou and the people
<05971>
that [is] with thee, and lie in wait
<0693> (8798)
in the field
<07704>_:
And it shall be, [that] in the morning
<01242>_,
as soon as the sun
<08121>
is up
<02224> (8800)_,
thou shalt rise early
<07925> (8686)_,
and set
<06584> (8804)
upon the city
<05892>_:
and, behold, [when] he and the people
<05971>
that [is] with him come out
<03318> (8802)
against thee, then mayest thou do
<06213> (8804)
to them as thou
<03027>
shalt find occasion
<04672> (8799)_.
{as thou shalt...: Heb. as thine hand shall find}
And Abimelech
<040>
rose up
<06965> (8799)_,
and all the people
<05971>
that [were] with him, by night
<03915>_,
and they laid wait
<0693> (8799)
against Shechem
<07927>
in four
<0702>
companies
<07218>_.
And Gaal
<01603>
the son
<01121>
of Ebed
<05651>
went out
<03318> (8799)_,
and stood
<05975> (8799)
in the entering
<06607>
of the gate
<08179>
of the city
<05892>_:
and Abimelech
<040>
rose up
<06965> (8799)_,
and the people
<05971>
that [were] with him, from lying in wait
<03993>_.
