Judges 9:3 in Context — Judges 9
1 E foi-se Abimeleque filho de Jerubaal a Siquém, aos irmãos de sua mãe, e falou com eles, e com toda a família da casa do pai de sua mãe, dizendo:
2 Eu vos rogo que faleis a ouvidos de todos os de Siquém: Que tendes por melhor, que vos dominem setenta homens, todos os filhos de Jerubaal; ou que vos senhoreie um homem? Lembrai-vos que eu sou osso vosso, e carne vossa.
3 E falaram por ele os irmãos de sua mãe a ouvidos de todos os de Siquém todas estas palavras: e o coração deles se inclinou em favor de Abimeleque, porque diziam: Nosso irmão é.
4 E deram-lhe setenta siclos de prata do templo de Baal-Berite, com os quais Abimeleque contratou homens ociosos e vagabundos, que lhe seguiram.
5 E vindo à casa de seu pai em Ofra, matou a seus irmãos os filhos de Jerubaal, setenta homens, sobre uma pedra: mas restou Jotão, o menor filho de Jerubaal, que se escondeu.
