Judges 9:52-57
52So Abimelech came to the tower and fought against it, and approached the entrance of the tower to burn it down with fire.
53But 1a woman threw an upper millstone on Abimelech’s head, crushing his skull.
54Then 2he called quickly to the young man, his armor bearer, and said to him, “Draw your sword and kill me, so that it will not be said of me, ‘A woman killed him.’” So 3the young man pierced him through, and he died.
55Now when the men of Israel saw that Abimelech was dead, each left for his 4home.
56So 5God repaid the wickedness of Abimelech, which he had done to his father in killing his seventy brothers.
57God also returned all the wickedness of the men of Shechem on their heads, and the curse of Jotham the son of Jerubbaal came 6upon them.
