Now therefore up by night, thou and the people that {is} with thee, and lie in wait in the field:

And it shall be, {that} in the morning, as soon as the sun is up, thou shalt rise early, and set upon the city: and, behold, {when} he and the people that {is} with him come out against thee, then mayest thou do to them as thou shalt find occasion. {as thou shalt...: Heb. as thine hand shall find}

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.

And when Gaal saw the people, he said to Zebul, Behold, there come people down from the top of the mountains. And Zebul said unto him, Thou seest the shadow of the mountains as {if they were} men.
