Parallel

2 Samuel 11:21

Jewish Publication Society 1917 · Berean Standard Bible

who smote Abimelech the son of Jerubbesheth? did not a woman cast an upper millstone upon him from the wall, that he died at Thebez? why went ye so nigh the wall? then shalt thou say: Thy servant Uriah the Hittite is dead also.’
Who struck Abimelech son of Jerubbesheth (note: Jerubbesheth is also known as Jerubbaal, that is, Gideon.)? Was it not a woman who dropped an upper millstone on him from the wall, so that he died in Thebez? Why did you get so close to the wall?’ If he asks you this, then you are to say, ‘Your servant Uriah the Hittite is dead as well.’”
