Judges 9:51 in Context — Judges 9
49 E assim todo aquele povo cortou também cada um seu ramo, e seguiram a Abimeleque, e puseram-nas junto à fortaleza, e prenderam fogo com elas à fortaleza: por maneira que todos os da torre de Siquém morreram, como uns mil homens e mulheres.
50 Depois Abimeleque se foi a Tebes; e pôs cerco a Tebes, e tomou-a.
51 Em meio daquela cidade havia uma torre forte, à qual se retiraram todos os homens e mulheres, e todos os senhores da cidade; e fechando atrás de si as portas, subiram ao piso alto da torre.
52 E veio Abimeleque à torre, e combatendo-a, chegou-se à porta da torre para pegar-lhe fogo.
53 Mas uma mulher deixou cair um pedaço de uma roda de moinho sobre a cabeça de Abimeleque, e quebrou-lhe o crânio.
