Judges 9:49-51

Evangelical Heritage Version

⁴⁹ All the people, each man, also cut brushwood and followed Abimelek. They placed the branches against the vault and with the branches they set the vault on fire, and all the people in the citadel of Shechem died, about a thousand men and women.

⁵⁰ Abimelek then went to Thebez, besieged it, and captured it. ⁵¹ There was a strong tower in the middle of the city, and all the men and women and all the rulers of the city fled there. They shut it up tight behind them and went up to the roof of the tower.
