Judges 9:16-20
16“Now therefore, if you acted in good faith and integrity when you made Abimelech king, and if you have dealt well with aJerubbaal and his house and have done to him bas his deeds deserved— 17for my father fought for you and risked his life and delivered you from the hand of Midian, 18and you have risen up against my father’s house this day cand have killed his sons, seventy men on one stone, and have made dAbimelech, the son of his female servant, king over the leaders of Shechem, ebecause he is your relative— 19if you then have acted in good faith and integrity with Jerubbaal and with his house this day, then frejoice in Abimelech, and let him also rejoice in you. 20But if not, glet fire come out from Abimelech and devour the leaders of Shechem and Beth-millo; and let fire come out from the leaders of Shechem and from Beth-millo and devour Abimelech.”Isaiah 7:1-2

mEphraim,” the heart of Ahaz ▼▼Hebrew his heart
and the heart of his people shook as the trees of the forest shake before the wind. Isaiah 7:6
