The words of Gaal the son of Ebed, in whom the men of Shechem put their trust

세겜 사람들이 의뢰한 에벳의 아들 가알의 말

Judges 9:26–29: Gaal the son of Ebed comes with his brothers and goes over to Shechem; and the men of Shechem put their trust in him. They go out into the field, harvest their vineyards, tread the grapes, celebrate, and go into the house of their god and eat and drink, and curse Abimelech. Gaal the son of Ebed says, “Who is Abimelech, and who is Shechem, that we should serve him? Isn’t he the son of Jerubbaal? Isn’t Zebul his officer? Serve the men of Hamor the father of Shechem, but why should we serve him? I wish that this people were under my hand! Then I would remove Abimelech.” He says to Abimelech, “Increase your army and come out!” The Korean Revised Version gives these last words as reported speech.
