Zebul said to him,“ Where now are your bragging words,‘ Who is Abimelech that we should serve him?’ Are these not the men you insulted? Go out now and fight them!”

西布勒对他说：“你曾说，亚比米勒是谁，叫我们服侍他？你所夸的口在哪里呢？这不是你所藐视的民吗？你现在出去，与他们交战吧！”

西布勒对他说：“你所夸口的在哪里呢？你曾说：‘亚比米勒是谁，叫我们服事他呢？’这不是你所藐视的百姓吗？你现在出去，与他们交战吧！”

西布勒曰、爾昔言亞比米勒為誰、而使我事之、爾之前言、今安在哉、此非爾所藐視之民乎、請出而與之戰、

西不曰、爾昔言亞庇米力為誰、曷為事之、至於今日、爾之前言何在。此非爾所蔑視者乎。今可出而與之戰。

西布勒謂之曰、爾曾言亞比米勒為誰、何為事之、今日爾之言安在、此非爾所藐視之人乎、可出而與之戰、

Then Zebul said to him,“ Where is your big talk now, you who said,‘ Who is Abimelek that we should be subject to him?’ Aren’t these the men you ridiculed? Go out and fight them!”

Then Zebul said to Gaal,“ Where is your big talk now? You said,‘ Who is Abimelek? Why should we be under his rule?’ Aren’t these the people you made fun of? Go out and fight against them!”

Then Zebul said to him,“ Where is your mouth now, you who said,‘ Who is Abimelech, that we should serve him?’ Are not these the people whom you despised? Go out now and fight with them.”

Then Zebul turned on him and asked,“ Now where is that big mouth of yours? Wasn’t it you that said,‘ Who is Abimelech, and why should we be his servants?’ The men you mocked are right outside the city! Go out and fight them!”

Zebul replied,“ What do you have to say now? You said,‘ Who is Abimelech that we should serve him?’ Aren’t these the troops you despised? Now go and fight them!”

Then Zebul said to him,“ Where then is your boasting with which you said,‘ Who is Abimelech that we should serve him?’ Is this not the people whom you rejected? Go out now and fight them!”

Then Zebul said to him,“ Where indeed is your mouth now, with which you said,‘ Who is Abimelech, that we should serve him?’ Are not these the people whom you despised? Go out, if you will, and fight with them now.”

Then said Zebul unto him, Where is now thy mouth, that thou saidst, Who is Abimelech, that we should serve him? is not this the people that thou hast despised? go out now, I pray, and fight with them.

Zebul replied,“ Where is your mouthing off now? You said,‘ Who is Abimelech that we should serve him?’ Aren’t these the people you despised? Now go and fight them!”

Then said Zebul unto him, Where[ is] now thy mouth, wherewith thou saidst, Who[ is] Abimelech, that we should serve him?[ is] not this the people that thou hast despised? go out, I pray now, and fight with them.

Then Zebul said to him,“ Now where is your mouth, that you said,‘ Who is Abimelech, that we should serve him?’ Isn’t this the people that you have despised? Please go out now and fight with them.”

Gaal son of Ebed said,“ Who is Abimelech and who is Shechem, that we should serve him? Is he not the son of Jerub-Baal, and is not Zebul the deputy he appointed? Serve the sons of Hamor, the father of Shechem! But why should we serve Abimelech?If only these men were under my command, I would get rid of Abimelech!” He challenged Abimelech,“ Muster your army and come out for battle!”

Then Abner called out to Joab,“ Must the sword devour forever? Don’t you realize that this will turn bitter in the end? When will you tell the people to turn aside from pursuing their brothers?”Joab replied,“ As surely as God lives, if you had not said this, it would have been morning before the people would have abandoned pursuit of their brothers!”

Then Amaziah sent messengers to Jehoash son of Jehoahaz son of Jehu, king of Israel. He said,“ Come, let’s meet face to face.”King Jehoash of Israel sent this message back to King Amaziah of Judah,“ A thornbush in Lebanon sent this message to a cedar in Lebanon,‘ Give your daughter to my son as a wife.’ Then a wild animal of Lebanon came by and trampled down the thorn.You thoroughly defeated Edom and it has gone to your head! Gloat over your success, but stay in your palace. Why bring calamity on yourself? Why bring down yourself and Judah along with you?”But Amaziah would not heed the warning, so King Jehoash of Israel attacked. He and King Amaziah of Judah met face to face in Beth Shemesh of Judah.Judah was defeated by Israel, and each man ran back home.King Jehoash of Israel captured King Amaziah of Judah, son of Jehoash son of Ahaziah, in Beth Shemesh. He attacked Jerusalem and broke down the wall of Jerusalem from the Gate of Ephraim to the Corner Gate– a distance of about six hundred feet.He took away all the gold and silver, all the items found in the Lord’ s temple and in the treasuries of the royal palace, and some hostages. Then he went back to Samaria.(

But where are the gods you made for yourselves? Let them save you when you are in trouble. The sad fact is that you have as many gods as you have towns, Judah.
