Judges 9:52 in Context — Judges 9

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.

54 E logo ele chamou a seu escudeiro, e disse-lhe: Tira tua espada e mata-me, porque não se diga de mim: Uma mulher o matou. E seu escudeiro o atravessou, e morreu.
