Judges 9:12

10 “Then the trees said to the fig tree,
‘You come and reign over us!’

‘Should I cease my sweetness and my good fruit,
And go to sway over trees?’

12 “Then the trees said to the vine,
‘You come and reign over us!’

‘Should I cease my new wine,
^aWhich cheers both God and men,
And go to sway over trees?’

14 “Then all the trees said to the bramble,
‘You come and reign over us!’
