    46When all the men of the tower of Shechem heard of it, they entered into the stronghold of the house of Elberith.

    47Abimelech was told that all the men of the tower of Shechem were gathered together.

    48Abimelech went up to Mount Zalmon, he and all the people who were with him; and Abimelech took an ax in his hand, and cut down a bough from the trees, and took it up, and laid it on his shoulder. Then he said to the people who were with him, “What you have seen me do, make haste, and do as I have done!”

    49All the people likewise each cut down his bough, followed Abimelech, and put them at the base of the stronghold, and set the stronghold on fire over them, so that all the people of the tower of Shechem died also, about a thousand men and women.

    7God, when you went out before your people, when you marched through the wilderness... Selah.

    8The earth trembled. The sky also poured down rain at the presence of the God of Sinai— at the presence of God, the God of Israel.

    9You, God, sent a plentiful rain. You confirmed your inheritance when it was weary.

    10Your congregation lived therein. You, God, prepared your goodness for the poor.

    11The Lord announced the word. The ones who proclaim it are a great company.

    12“Kings of armies flee! They flee!” She who waits at home divides the plunder,

    13while you sleep among the camp fires, the wings of a dove sheathed with silver, her feathers with shining gold.

    14When the Almighty scattered kings in her, it snowed on Zalmon.

    15The mountains of Bashan are majestic mountains. The mountains of Bashan are rugged.

    16Why do you look in envy, you rugged mountains, at the mountain where God chooses to reign? Yes, the LORD will dwell there forever.

    17The chariots of God are tens of thousands and thousands of thousands. The Lord is among them, from Sinai, into the sanctuary.

    18You have ascended on high. You have led away captives. You have received gifts among people, yes, among the rebellious also, that the LORD God might dwell there.
