Judges 9:17

Abimelech Attempts To Become King

¹⁶ And even so, now: if ye have done truly and uncorruptly to make Abimelech king, and if ye have dealt well with Jerubbaal and his house, and have done unto him according to the deserving of his hands, ¹⁷ - forasmuch as my father fought for you and adventured his life, and rid you out of the hands of the Midianites - ¹⁸ and ye are risen up against my father's house this day. And have slain his children, even seventy persons upon one stone and have made Abimelech - the son of his maidservant - king over the citizens of Shechem, because he is your brother.
