Judges 9:47-48

47And it was reported to Abimelech that all the 1leaders of the tower of Shechem were gathered together.

48So Abimelech went up to Mount 2Zalmon, he and all the people who were with him; and Abimelech took 3an axe in his hand and cut down a branch from the trees, and lifted it and put it on his shoulder. Then he said to the people who were with him, “What you saw me do, hurry and do 4likewise.”
