Judges 9:31-33

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

³¹ He sent messengers to Abimelech at Arumah,^[a] saying, ‘Look, Gaal son of Ebed and his kinsfolk have come to Shechem, and they are stirring up^[b] the city against you. ³² Now therefore, go by night, you and the troops that are with you, and lie in wait in the fields. ³³ Then early in the morning, as soon as the sun rises, get up and rush on the city; and when he and the troops that are with him come out against you, you may deal with them as best you can.’
