Judges 9:16-18

International Children’s Bible

¹⁶ “Now, were you completely honest and sincere when you made Abimelech king? Have you been fair to Gideon and his family? Have you treated Gideon as you should? ¹⁷ Remember, my father fought for you. He risked his life to save you from the power of the Midianites. ¹⁸ But now you have turned against my father’s family. You have killed my father’s 70 sons on one stone. You have made Abimelech king over the people of Shechem. He is the son of my father’s slave girl! You have made Abimelech king just because he is your relative.
