Judges 9:7-9
Lexham English Bible
7 And they told Jotham, and he went up and stood on the top of Mount Gerizim, and he cried out loud[a] and said to them, “Listen to me, lords of Shechem, so that God may listen to you.
8 “The trees went certainly,
to anoint a king over themselves.
And they said to the olive tree,
‘Rule over us.’
9 And the olive tree replied,
‘Should I stop producing my oil,
which by me gods and men are honored,
to go sway over the trees?’
