Judges 9:29 in Context — Judges 9
27 E saindo ao campo, vindimaram suas vinhas, e pisaram a uva, e fizeram alegrias; e entrando no templo de seus deuses, comeram e beberam, e amaldiçoaram a Abimeleque.
28 E Gaal filho de Ebede disse: Quem é Abimeleque e que é Siquém, para que nós a ele sirvamos? não é filho de Jerubaal? e não é Zebul seu assistente? Servi aos homens de Hamor pai de Siquém: mas por que serviríamos a ele?
29 Fosse-me dado este povo abaixo de minha mão, eu expulsaria logo a Abimeleque. E dizia a Abimeleque: Aumenta teus esquadrões, e sai.
30 E Zebul assistente da cidade, ouvindo as palavras de Gaal filho de Ebede, acendeu-se sua ira;
31 E enviou sagazmente mensageiros a Abimeleque, dizendo: Eis que Gaal filho de Ebede e seus irmãos vieram a Siquém, e eis que cercaram a cidade contra ti.
