Judges 9:7

⁷To když pověděli Jotamovi, odejda, postavil se na vrchu hory Garizim, a pozdvihna hlasu svého, volal, a řekl jim: Poslyšte mne muži Sichemští, a uslyš vás Bůh.

Judges 9 narrates the tragic rise and fall of Abimelech, Gideon's son by a concubine, who ruthlessly murders his seventy brothers to seize kingship over Shechem. Jotham, the youngest brother, escapes and delivers a powerful fable about trees seeking a king, warning the people of Shechem about the destructive nature of their choice. Abimelech's tyrannical reign is marked by violence and treachery, ultimately leading to his own ignominious death at the hands of a woman, fulfilling Jotham's curse and demonstrating the bitter fruit of human ambition apart from God's appointed leadership.
