KJV - Judges 9:15

And the bramble said unto the trees, If in truth ye anoint me king over you, then come and put your trust in my shadow: and if not, let fire come out of the bramble, and devour the cedars of Lebanon.

The bramble asked the trees, "If you really make me your king, rely on my shade. But if not, let flames erupt from me and burn the Lebanese cedar trees."
