Judges 9:27-29
New King James Version
27 So they went out into the fields, and gathered grapes from their vineyards and trod them, and [a]made merry. And they went into (A)the house of their god, and ate and drank, and cursed Abimelech. 28 Then Gaal the son of Ebed said, (B)“Who is Abimelech, and who is Shechem, that we should serve him? Is he not the son of Jerubbaal, and is not Zebul his officer? Serve the men of (C)Hamor the father of Shechem; but why should we serve him? 29 (D)If only this people were under my [b]authority! Then I would remove Abimelech.” So [c]he said to Abimelech, “Increase your army and come out!”
