Judges 9:45-47

American Standard Version

⁴⁵ And Abimelech fought against the city all that day; and he took the city, and slew the people that were therein: and he beat down the city, and sowed it with salt.

⁴⁶ And when all the men of the tower of Shechem heard thereof, they entered into the stronghold of the house of Elberith. ⁴⁷ And it was told Abimelech that all the men of the tower of Shechem were gathered together.
