Judges 9:16-20

16NowH6258 thereforeH6258, if ye have dealt truly and sincerely in that ye have madeH6213 AbimelechH40 kingH4427, and if ye have dealt wellH2895 with JerubbaalH3378 and his houseH1004, and if ye have done to him according to the deserving of his handsH3027;

17— for my fatherH1 foughtH3898 for you, and endangered his lifeH5315, and deliveredH5337 you out of the handH3027 of MidianH4080;

18but ye are risenH6965 up against my father's houseH1004 this dayH3117, and have slainH2026 his sonsH1121, seventyH7657 menH376, upon oneH259 stoneH68, and have made AbimelechH40, the sonH1121 of his handmaid, kingH4427 over the citizensH1167 of ShechemH7927, because he is your brotherH251;

19— if ye then have dealt truly and sincerely with JerubbaalH3378 and with his houseH1004 this dayH3117, rejoiceH8055 ye in AbimelechH40, and let him alsoH1571 rejoiceH8055 in you;

20but if not, let fireH784 comeH3318 out from AbimelechH40, and devourH398 the citizensH1167 of ShechemH7927 and the houseH1004 of MilloH4407; and let fireH784 comeH3318 out from the citizensH1167 of ShechemH7927 and from the houseH1004 of MilloH4407, and devourH398 AbimelechH40.
