Judges 9:37-39

New Living Translation

³⁷ But again Gaal said, “No, people are coming down from the hills.^[a] And another group is coming down the road past the Diviners’ Oak.^[b]”

³⁸ Then Zebul turned on him and asked, “Now where is that big mouth of yours? Wasn’t it you that said, ‘Who is Abimelech, and why should we be his servants?’ The men you mocked are right outside the city! Go out and fight them!”

³⁹ So Gaal led the leading citizens of Shechem into battle against Abimelech.
