Judges 9:44-46
New International Reader's Version
44 Abimelek and the men with him ran forward. They placed themselves at the entrance of the city gate. Then the other two groups attacked the people in the fields. There they struck them down. 45 Abimelek kept up his attack against the city all day long. He didn’t stop until he had captured it. Then he killed its people. He destroyed the city. He scattered salt on it to make sure that nothing would be able to grow there.
46 The citizens in the tower of Shechem heard about what was happening. So they went to the safest place in the temple of the god named El-Berith.
