And it shall be, that in the morning, as soon as the sun is up, thou shalt rise early, and set upon the city: and, behold, when he and the people that is with him come out against thee, then mayest thou do to them as thou shalt find occasion.

Verse 33 is found in chapter 9 of Judges. After three years, God sends a spirit of discord between Abimelech and the people of Shechem. Gaal challenges Zebul, and Abimelech prepares an attack. The narrative begins showing the fulfillment of Jotham’s curse: those who participated in violence against Gideon’s sons begin turning against one another. The conflict arises from within the alliance that had sustained Abimelech.

Und des Morgens, wenn die Sonne aufgeht, so mache dich früh auf und überfalle die Stadt. Und wo er und das Volk, das bei ihm ist, zu dir hinauszieht, so tue mit ihm, wie es deine Hand findet.
Y por la mañana al salir del sol te levantarás y acometerás la ciudad: y él y el pueblo que está con él saldrán contra ti, y tu harás con él según que se te ofrecerá.
Le matin, au lever du soleil, tu fondras avec impétuosité sur la ville. Et lorsque Gaal et le peuple qui est avec lui sortiront contre toi, tu lui feras ce que tes forces permettront.
e domattina a buon’ora, in sul levar del sole, levati, e fa’ una correria sopra la città; ed ecco, egli e la gente ch’è con lui, uscirà incontro a te, e tu gli farai secondo che ti occorrerà.
E levanta-te pela manhã ao sair o sol, e dá de golpe sobre a cidade; e eis que, saindo contra ti, ele e o povo que tiver com ele, faze-lhe como puderes.
早晨太陽一出,你就趁早攻城。看哪, 迦勒 和跟隨他的百姓出來攻擊你的時候,你就全力對付他們。」
