and their blood be laid upon Abimelech their brother, which slew them; be charged to his account, and he suffer for shedding it:
and upon the men of Shechem which aided him in killing of his brethren; by giving him money to hire men to go with him to do it, and perhaps by words encouraging the assassins, and who might be of the city of Shechem.

The cruelty - That is, the punishment of the cruelty.
