Judges 9:43-47

So he took his people and divided them into three units, and lay in wait in the field; when he looked and saw the people coming out from the city, he attacked them and killed them.

Then Abimelech and the company who was with him rushed forward and stood at the entrance of the city gate; the other two companies then attacked all who were in the field and killed them.

Abimelech fought against the city that whole day, and he captured the city and killed the people who were in it; then he tore down the city and sowed it with salt.

When all the leaders of the tower of Shechem heard about it, they entered the inner chamber of the temple of El-berith.

And it was reported to Abimelech that all the leaders of the tower of Shechem were gathered together.
