43 O qual, tomando gente, repartiu-a em três companhias, e pôs emboscadas no campo: e quando olhou, eis o povo que saía da cidade; e levantou-se contra eles, e feriu-os:

44 Pois Abimeleque e o esquadrão que estava com ele, atacaram com ímpeto, e pararam à entrada da porta da cidade; e as duas companhias atacaram a todos os que estavam no campo, e os feriram.

45 E depois de combater Abimeleque a cidade todo aquele dia, tomou-a, e matou o povo que nela estava, e assolou a cidade, e semeou-a de sal.

46 Quando ouviram isto todos os que estavam na torre de Siquém, entraram na fortaleza do templo do deus Berite.
