Contextual Overview

²²And on some, who are doubting, have mercy; ²³and for others, save, snatching them out of the fire; and on others have mercy with fear, hating even the tunic polluted by the flesh. ²⁴Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, and to make you stand in the presence of His glory blameless with great joy, ²⁵to the only God our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, might, and authority, before all time and now and forever. Amen. ²⁶ Toe kom Gaäl, die seun van Ebed, met sy broers en hulle trek oor na Sigem toe; en die burgers van Sigem het op hom vertrou. ²⁷ En hulle het uitgegaan in die veld en hulle wingerde afgeoes en uitgetrap en oesfees gehou; daarop het hulle in die huis van hulle god ingegaan en geëet en gedrink en Abiméleg gevloek. ²⁸ Toe sê Gaäl, die seun van Ebed: Wie is Abiméleg--en wat is Sigem--dat ons hom sou dien? Is hy nie die seun van Jerúbbaäl, en is Sebul nie sy stadsbestuurder nie? Dien die manne van Hemor, die vader van Sigem, maar waarom moet óns hom dien? ²⁹ Ag, was hierdie volk maar in my hand, dan sou ek Abiméleg wegjaag! En met die oog op Abiméleg het hy gesê: Vermeerder maar jou leër en trek uit! ³⁰ Toe Sebul, die owerste van die stad, die woorde van Gaäl, die seun van Ebed, hoor, het hy kwaad geword ³¹ en listig boodskappers na Abiméleg gestuur om te sê: Kyk, Gaäl, die seun van Ebed, met sy broers, het in Sigem gekom, en kyk, hulle maak die stad teen u op.
