New King James Version
Judges 9:50-55
50Then Abimelech went to Thebez, and he encamped against Thebez and took it.
51But there was a strong tower in the city, and all the men and women—all the people of the city—fled there and shut themselves in; then they went up to the top of the tower.
52So Abimelech came as far as the tower and fought against it; and he drew near the door of the tower to burn it with fire.
53But a certain woman dropped an upper millstone on Abimelech’s head and crushed his skull.
54Then he called quickly to the young man, his armorbearer, and said to him, “Draw your sword and kill me, lest men say of me, ‘A woman killed him.’ ” So his young man thrust him through, and he died.
55And when the men of Israel saw that Abimelech was dead, they departed, every man to his place.
