וַיִּכְרְתוּ גַם־כָּל־הָעָם אִישׁ שׂוֹכֹה וַיֵּלְכוּ אַחֲרֵי אֲבִימֶלֶךְ וַיָּשִׂימוּ עַֽל־הַצְּרִיחַ וַיַּצִּיתוּ עֲלֵיהֶם אֶֽת־הַצְּרִיחַ בָּאֵשׁ וַיָּמֻתוּ גַּם כָּל־אַנְשֵׁי מִֽגְדַּל־שְׁכֶם כְּאֶלֶף אִישׁ וְאִשָּֽׁה
And all the people likewise cut down every man his bough, and followed Abimelech, and put them to the hold, and set the hold on fire upon them; so that all the men of the tower of Shechem died also, about a thousand men and women.
וַיֵּלֶךְ אֲבִימֶלֶךְ אֶל־תֵּבֵץ וַיִּחַן בְּתֵבֵץ וַֽיִּלְכְּדָֽהּ
Then went Abimelech to Thebez, and encamped against Thebez, and took it.
וּמִגְדַּל־עֹז הָיָה בְתוֹךְ־הָעִיר וַיָּנֻסוּ שָׁמָּה כָּל־הָאֲנָשִׁים וְהַנָּשִׁים וְכֹל בַּעֲלֵי הָעִיר וַֽיִּסְגְּרוּ בַּעֲדָם וַֽיַּעֲלוּ עַל־גַּג הַמִּגְדָּֽל
But there was a strong tower within the city, and thither fled all the men and women, even all they of the city, and shut themselves in, and got them up to the roof of the tower.
וַיָּבֹא אֲבִימֶלֶךְ עַד־הַמִּגְדָּל וַיִּלָּחֶם בּוֹ וַיִּגַּשׁ עַד־פֶּתַח הַמִּגְדָּל לְשָׂרְפוֹ בָאֵֽשׁ
And Abimelech came unto the tower, and fought against it, and went close unto the door of the tower to burn it with fire.
וַתַּשְׁלֵךְ אִשָּׁה אַחַת פֶּלַח רֶכֶב עַל־רֹאשׁ אֲבִימֶלֶךְ וַתָּרִץ אֶת־גֻּלְגָּלְתּֽוֹ
And a certain woman cast an upper millstone upon Abimelech’s head, and broke his skull.
