Judges 9:47 in Context — Judges 9
45 Abimélec attaqua la ville pendant toute la journée; il s’en empara, et tua le peuple qui s’y trouvait. Puis il rasa la ville, et y sema du sel.
46 A cette nouvelle, tous les habitants de la tour de Sichem se rendirent dans la forteresse de la maison du dieu Berith.
47 On avertit Abimélec que tous les habitants de la tour de Sichem s’y étaient rassemblés.
48 Alors Abimélec monta sur la montagne de Tsalmon, lui et tout le peuple qui était avec lui. Il prit en main une hache, coupa une branche d’arbre, l’enleva et la mit sur son épaule. Ensuite il dit au peuple qui était avec lui: Vous avez vu ce que j’ai fait, hâtez-vous de faire comme moi.
49 Et ils coupèrent chacun une branche, et suivirent Abimélec; ils placèrent les branches contre la forteresse, et l’incendièrent avec ceux qui y étaient. Ainsi périrent tous les gens de la tour de Sichem, au nombre d’environ mille, hommes et femmes.
