Judges 9:31 in Context — Judges 9
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.
32 Levanta-te, pois, agora de noite, tu e o povo que está contigo, e põe emboscada no campo:
33 E pela manhã ao sair do sol te levantarás e atacarás a cidade: e ele e o povo que está com ele sairão contra ti, e tu farás com ele segundo que se te oferecerá.
