Judges 9:52-54

International Children’s Bible

⁵² Abimelech came to the tower and attacked it. He went up to the door of the tower to set it on fire. ⁵³ As Abimelech came near, a woman dropped a large stone for grinding grain on his head. The stone crushed Abimelech’s skull.

⁵⁴ He quickly called to the officer who carried his armor. He said, “Take out your sword and kill me. I don’t want people to say, ‘A woman killed Abimelech.’” So the officer stabbed Abimelech, and he died.
