Judges 9:16-20

16NowH6258 therefore, ifH518 ye have dealt trulyH571 and uprightlyH8549, in that ye have madeH6213 AbimelechH40 kingH4427, and ifH518 ye have dealt wellH2895 with JerubbaalH3378 and his houseH1004, and have doneH6213 unto him accordingH3027 to the deserving of his handsH3027;

17(for my fatherH1 foughtH3898 for youH834, and adventured his lifeH5315, and deliveredH5337 youH834 outH5921 of the handH3027 of MidianH4080:

18and ye are risenH6965 upH6965 againstH5921 my father’sH1 houseH1004 this dayH3117, and have slainH2026 his sonsH1121, threescore and ten personsH376, uponH5921 one stoneH68, and have made AbimelechH40, the sonH1121 of his maidservantH519, kingH4427 over the menH376 of ShechemH7927, becauseH3588 he is your brotherH251;)

19ifH518 ye then have dealt trulyH571 and uprightlyH8549 with JerubbaalH3378 and with his houseH1004 this dayH3117, then rejoiceH8055 ye in AbimelechH40, and letH8055 him also rejoiceH8055 in youH518:

20but ifH518 notH369, let fireH784 comeH3318 outH3318 from AbimelechH40, and devourH398 the menH1167 of ShechemH7927, and the houseH1004 of MilloH4407; and let fireH784 comeH3318 outH3318 from the menH1167 of ShechemH7927, and from the houseH1004 of MilloH4407, and devourH398 AbimelechH40.
