Judges 9:56 in Context — Judges 9
54 Aussitôt il appela le jeune homme qui portait ses armes, et lui dit: Tire ton épée, et donne-moi la mort, de peur qu’on ne dise de moi: C’est une femme qui l’a tué. Le jeune homme le perça, et il mourut.
55 Quand les hommes d’Israël virent qu’Abimélec était mort, ils s’en allèrent chacun chez soi.
56 Ainsi Dieu fit retomber sur Abimélec le mal qu’il avait fait à son père, en tuant ses soixante-dix frères,
57 et Dieu fit retomber sur la tête des gens de Sichem tout le mal qu’ils avaient fait. Ainsi s’accomplit sur eux la malédiction de Jotham, fils de Jerubbaal.
