Judges 9:20

9:20 But if not, may fire blaze from Abimelech and consume the leaders of Shechem and Beth Millo! May fire also blaze from the leaders of Shechem and Beth Millo and consume Abimelech!”

Judges 9:49

9:49 So each of his men also cut off a branch and followed Abimelech. They put the branches ¹  against the stronghold and set fire to it. ²  All the people ³  of the Tower of Shechem died – about a thousand men and women.

[9:49]  ¹ tn The words “the branches” are supplied in the translation for clarification.

[9:49]  ² tn Heb “they kindled over them the stronghold with fire.”

[9:49]  ³ tn Or “men,” but the word seems to have a more general sense here, as the conclusion to the sentence suggests.
