Judges 9:42-44

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

⁴² The next day the men went out into the fields, and Abimelech was told.

⁴³ He took his men and divided them into three companies and laid in wait in the field; and he looked and behold, the people were coming out of the city. And he rose up against them and smote them.

⁴⁴ And Abimelech and the company with him rushed forward and stood in the entrance of the city’s gate, while the two other companies rushed upon all who were in the field and slew them.
