KJV - Judges 9:54

Then he called hastily unto the young man his armourbearer, and said unto him, Draw thy sword, and slay me, that men say not of me, A woman slew him. And his young man thrust him through, and he died.

Then, quickly, he asked his armor-wearer, a young man, to take out his sword and kill him. He wanted to avoid people saying that a woman killed him. The young man did it, and he died.
