abimelech <GEN20 -2> And Abraham said of Sarah his wife, She 
[is] my

sister: and {Abimelech} king of Gerar sent, and took Sarah.



abimelech <GEN20 -3> But God came to {Abimelech} in a dream by

night, and said to him, Behold, thou [art but] a dead man, for 
the

woman which thou hast taken; for she [is] a man's wife.



abimelech <GEN20 -4> But {Abimelech} had not come near her: and 
he

said, Lord, wilt thou slay also a righteous nation?



abimelech <GEN20 -8> Therefore {Abimelech} rose early in the

morning, and called all his servants, and told all these things 
in

their ears: and the men were sore afraid.



abimelech <GEN20 -9> Then {Abimelech} called Abraham, and said 
unto

him, What hast thou done unto us? and what have I offended thee,

that thou hast brought on me and on my kingdom a great sin? thou

hast done deeds unto me that ought not to be done.



abimelech <GEN20 -10> And {Abimelech} said unto Abraham, What 
sawest

thou, that thou hast done this thing?



abimelech <GEN20 -14> And {Abimelech} took sheep, and oxen, and

menservants, and womenservants, and gave [them] unto Abraham, and

restored him Sarah his wife.



abimelech <GEN20 -15> And {Abimelech} said, Behold, my land [is]

before thee: dwell where it pleaseth thee.



abimelech <GEN20 -17> So Abraham prayed unto God: and God healed

{Abimelech}, and his wife, and his maidservants; and they bare

[children].



abimelech <GEN20 -18> For the LORD had fast closed up all the 
wombs

of the house of {Abimelech}, because of Sarah Abraham's wife.



abimelech <GEN21 -22> And it came to pass at that time, that

{Abimelech} and Phichol the chief captain of his host spake unto

Abraham, saying, God [is] with thee in all that thou doest:



abimelech <GEN21 -25> And Abraham reproved {Abimelech} because 
of a

well of water, which Abimelech's servants had violently taken 
away.



abimelech <GEN21 -26> And {Abimelech} said, I wot not who hath 
done

this thing: neither didst thou tell me, neither yet heard I [of 
it],

but to day.



abimelech <GEN21 -27> And Abraham took sheep and oxen, and gave 
them

unto {Abimelech}; and both of them made a covenant.



abimelech <GEN21 -29> And {Abimelech} said unto Abraham, What 
[mean]

these seven ewe lambs which thou hast set by themselves?



abimelech <GEN21 -32> Thus they made a covenant at Beersheba: 
then

{Abimelech} rose up, and Phichol the chief captain of his host, 
and

they returned into the land of the Philistines.



abimelech <GEN26 -1> And there was a famine in the land, beside 
the

first famine that was in the days of Abraham. And Isaac went unto

{Abimelech} king of the Philistines unto Gerar.



abimelech <GEN26 -8> And it came to pass, when he had been there 
a

long time, that {Abimelech} king of the Philistines looked out 
at a

window, and saw, and, behold, Isaac [was] sporting with Rebekah 
his

wife.



abimelech <GEN26 -9> And {Abimelech} called Isaac, and said, 
Behold,

of a surety she [is] thy wife: and how saidst thou, She [is] my

sister? And Isaac said unto him, Because I said, Lest I die for 
her.



abimelech <GEN26 -10> And {Abimelech} said, What [is] this thou 
hast

done unto us? one of the people might lightly have lien with thy

wife, and thou shouldest have brought guiltiness upon us.



abimelech <GEN26 -11> And {Abimelech} charged all [his] people,

saying, He that toucheth this man or his wife shall surely be 
put to

death.



abimelech <GEN26 -16> And {Abimelech} said unto Isaac, Go from 
us;

for thou art much mightier than we.



abimelech <GEN26 -26> Then {Abimelech} went to him from Gerar, 
and

Ahuzzath one of his friends, and Phichol the chief captain of his

army.



abimelech <JUG8 -31> And his concubine that [was] in Shechem, she

also bare him a son, whose name he called {Abimelech}.



abimelech <JUG9 -1> And {Abimelech} the son of Jerubbaal went to

Shechem unto his mother's brethren, and communed with them, and 
with

all the family of the house of his mother's father, saying,



abimelech <JUG9 -3> And his mother's brethren spake of him in the

ears of all the men of Shechem all these words: and their hearts

inclined to follow {Abimelech}; for they said, He [is] our 
brother.



abimelech <JUG9 -4> And they gave him threescore and ten 
[pieces] of

silver out of the house of Baalberith, wherewith {Abimelech} 
hired

vain and light persons, which followed him.



abimelech <JUG9 -6> And all the men of Shechem gathered together,

and all the house of Millo, and went, and made {Abimelech} king, 
by

the plain of the pillar that [was] in Shechem.



abimelech <JUG9 -16> Now therefore, if ye have done truly and

sincerely, in that ye have made {Abimelech} king, and if ye have

dealt well with Jerubbaal and his house, and have done unto him

according to the deserving of his hands;



abimelech <JUG9 -18> And ye are risen up against my father's 
house

this day, and have slain his sons, threescore and ten persons, 
upon

one stone, and have made {Abimelech}, the son of his maidservant,

king over the men of Shechem, because he [is] your bro



ther;)



abimelech <JUG9 -19> If ye then have dealt truly and sincerely 
with

Jerubbaal and with his house this day, [then] rejoice ye in

{Abimelech}, and let him also rejoice in you:



abimelech <JUG9 -20> But if not, let fire come out from 
{Abimelech},

and devour the men of Shechem, and the house of Millo; and let 
fire

come out from the men of Shechem, and from the house of Millo, 
and

devour Abimelech.



abimelech <JUG9 -20> But if not, let fire come out from 
Abimelech,

and devour the men of Shechem, and the house of Millo; and let 
fire

come out from the men of Shechem, and from the house of Millo, 
and

devour {Abimelech}.



abimelech <JUG9 -21> And Jotham ran away, and fled, and went to

Beer, and dwelt there, for fear of {Abimelech} his brother.



abimelech <JUG9 -22> When {Abimelech} had reigned three years 
over

Israel,



abimelech <JUG9 -23> Then God sent an evil spirit between

{Abimelech} and the men of Shechem; and the men of Shechem dealt

treacherously with Abimelech:



abimelech <JUG9 -23> Then God sent an evil spirit between 
Abimelech

and the men of Shechem; and the men of Shechem dealt 
treacherously

with {Abimelech}:



abimelech <JUG9 -24> That the cruelty [done] to the threescore 
and

ten sons of Jerubbaal might come, and their blood be laid upon

{Abimelech} their brother, which slew them; and upon the men of

Shechem, which aided him in the killing of his brethren.



abimelech <JUG9 -25> And the men of Shechem set liers in wait for

him in the top of the mountains, and they robbed all that came 
along

that way by them: and it was told {Abimelech}.



abimelech <JUG9 -27> And they went out into the fields, and 
gathered

their vineyards, and trode [the grapes], and made merry, and went

into the house of their god, and did eat and drink, and cursed

{Abimelech}.



abimelech <JUG9 -28> And Gaal the son of Ebed said, Who [is]

{Abimelech}, and who [is] Shechem, that we should serve him? [is]

not [he] the son of Jerubbaal? and Zebul his officer? serve the 
men

of Hamor the father of Shechem: for why should we serve him?







abimelech <JUG9 -29> And would to God this people were under my

hand! then would I remove {Abimelech}. And he said to Abimelech,

Increase thine army, and come out.



abimelech <JUG9 -29> And would to God this people were under my

hand! then would I remove Abimelech. And he said to {Abimelech},

Increase thine army, and come out.



abimelech <JUG9 -31> And he sent messengers unto {Abimelech}

privily, saying, Behold, Gaal the son of Ebed and his brethren be

come to Shechem; and, behold, they fortify the city against thee.



abimelech <JUG9 -34> And {Abimelech} rose up, and all the people

that [were] with him, by night, and they laid wait against 
Shechem

in four companies.



abimelech <JUG9 -35> And Gaal the son of Ebed went out, and 
stood in

the entering of the gate of the city: and {Abimelech} rose up, 
and

the people that [were] with him, from lying in wait.



abimelech <JUG9 -38> 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.



abimelech <JUG9 -39> And Gaal went out before the men of Shechem,

and fought with {Abimelech}.



abimelech <JUG9 -40> And {Abimelech} chased him, and he fled 
before

him, and many were overthrown [and] wounded, [even] unto the

entering of the gate.



abimelech <JUG9 -41> And {Abimelech} dwelt at Arumah: and Zebul

thrust out Gaal and his brethren, that they should not dwell in

Shechem.



abimelech <JUG9 -42> And it came to pass on the morrow, that the

people went out into the field; and they told {Abimelech}.



abimelech <JUG9 -44> And {Abimelech}, and the company that [was]

with him, rushed forward, and stood in the entering of the gate 
of

the city: and the two [other] companies ran upon all [the people]

that [were] in the fields, and slew them.



abimelech <JUG9 -45> And {Abimelech} fought against the city all

that day; and he took the city, and slew the people that [was]

therein, and beat down the city, and sowed it with salt.



abimelech <JUG9 -47> And it was told {Abimelech}, that all the 
men

of the tower of Shechem were gathered together.



abimelech <JUG9 -48> And Abimelech gat him up to mount Zalmon, he

and all the people that [were] with him; and {Abimelech} took an 
ax

in his hand, and cut down a bough from the trees, and took it, 
and

laid [it] on his shoulder, and said unto the people th



at [were] with him, What ye have seen me do, make haste, [and] 
do as

I [have done].



abimelech <JUG9 -48> And {Abimelech} gat him up to mount Zalmon, 
he

and all the people that [were] with him; and Abimelech took an 
ax in

his hand, and cut down a bough from the trees, and took it, and 
laid

[it] on his shoulder, and said unto the people th



at [were] with him, What ye have seen me do, make haste, [and] 
do as

I [have done].



abimelech <JUG9 -49> And all the people likewise cut down every 
man

his bough, and followed {Abimelech}, and put [them] to the hold, 
and

set the hold on fire upon them; so that all the men of the tower 
of

Shechem died also, about a thousand men and women.







abimelech <JUG9 -50> Then went {Abimelech} to Thebez, and 
encamped

against Thebez, and took it.



abimelech <JUG9 -52> And {Abimelech} came unto the tower, and 
fought

against it, and went hard unto the door of the tower to burn it 
with

fire.



abimelech <JUG9 -55> And when the men of Israel saw that 
{Abimelech}

was dead, they departed every man unto his place.



abimelech <JUG9 -56> Thus God rendered the wickedness of

{Abimelech}, which he did unto his father, in slaying his seventy

brethren:



abimelech <JUG10 -1> And after {Abimelech} there arose to defend

Israel Tola the son of Puah the son of Dodo, a man of Issachar, 
and

he dwelt in Shamir in mount Ephraim.



abimelech <2SA11 -21> Who smote {Abimelech} the son of 
Jerubbesheth?

did not a woman cast a piece of a millstone upon him from the 
wall,

that he died in Thebez? why went ye nigh the wall? then say thou,

Thy servant Uriah the Hittite is dead also.



abimelech <1CH18 -16> And Zadok the son of Ahitub, and 
{Abimelech}

the son of Abiathar, [were] the priests; and Shavsha was scribe;



abimelech <PSA34 -1> A Psalm] of David, when he changed his

behaviour before {Abimelech}; who drove him away, and he 
departed. I

will bless the LORD at all times: his praise [shall] continually

[be] in my mouth.
