Judges 9:28-30

Names of God Bible

²⁸ Gaal (son of Ebed) said, “Who’s Abimelech, and who are we, the people of Shechem, that we should serve him? Isn’t he Jerubbaal’s son, and isn’t Zebul his officer? Serve the descendants of Hamor, Shechem’s father! Why should we serve Abimelech? ²⁹ How I wish I controlled these people! Then I’d get rid of Abimelech. I would tell him,^[a] ‘Get yourself a big army and come out.’”

³⁰ Zebul, Shechem’s ruler, heard what Gaal (son of Ebed) had said, and he became angry.
