49 And also all the people will cut each a bough, and will go after Abimelech, and they will put upon the tower, and will set the tower on fire upon them, and all the men of the tower of Shechem will die; about a thousand men and women. 50 And Abimelech will go to Thebez, and he will encamp against Thebez and take it. 51 And a strong tower was in the midst of the city, and thither will flee all the men and women and all the lords of the city, and will shut up from after them, and they will go up upon the roof of the tower. 52 And Abimelech will come even to the tower, and will fight against it, and will urge on, even to the door of the tower to burn it with fire. 53 And one woman will cast a piece of the upper mill-stone upon the head of Abimelech, and she will break his skull.
