37. And Gaal spoke again and said, See there come people who descend through the middle of the land, and another company comes along by the plain of Meonenim.
38. Then Zebul said unto him, Where is now thy mouth, with which thou didst say, Who is Abimelech that we should serve him? Is not this the people that thou hast despised? Go out now and fight with them.
39. And Gaal went out before the men of Shechem and fought with Abimelech.
40. And Abimelech chased him, and he fled before him, and many were overthrown and wounded, even unto the entering of the gate.
41. And Abimelech dwelt at Arumah; and Zebul thrust out Gaal and his brethren that they should not dwell in Shechem.
