22 And Abimelech reigned .3. years over Israel. 23 And God sent an evil spirit between Abimelech and the men of Shechem: and the men of Shechem brake their promise to Abimelech. 24 That the injury of the .70. sons of Jerubbaal, and their blood might come and be laid upon Abimeleche their brother, which had slain them: and upon the men of Shechem, which had aided him to kill his brethren. 25 So the men of Shechem set men in wait for him in the tops of the mountains: who robbed all that passed that way. And it was told Abimelech.

And it was tolde Abimelech.
1Abimelech exercised his tyranny three years, and no longer: for violence can not be either perpetual, or of any long time. He judged not the Israelites in setting them at liberty, neither did he them any good, but only reigned. God at the length took vengeance, and made the blood of the sons of Jerubbaal to redound upon Abimelech and the Sechemites.
