Judges 9:10-12

Wycliffe Bible

¹⁰ And the trees said to the fig tree, Come thou, and take the realm on us (Come thou, and take the kingdom, and reign over us). Which answered to them,

¹¹ Whether I may forsake my sweetness, and my full sweet fruits, and go that I be advanced among other trees? (Can I forsake my sweetness, and my full sweet fruits, and go that I be advanced over the other trees?)

¹² Also the trees spake to the vine, (and said,) Come thou, and command to us.
