Judges 9:22-24

Revised Geneva Translation

²² So, Abimelech reigned for three years over Israel.

²³ But God sent an evil spirit between Abimelech and the men of Shechem. And the men of Shechem broke their promise to Abimelech,

²⁴ so that the cruelty toward the seventy sons of Jerubbaal and their blood might come and be laid upon Abimelech, their brother who had killed them, and upon the men of Shechem who had aided him to kill his brethren.
