15 And it happened after some days, in the days of the harvest of wheat, that Samson visited his wife with a kid of goats. And he said, “I will go in to my wife, to the chamber.” But her father would not allow him to go in. 2 And her father said, “Saying, I said that hating, you hated her, so I gave her to your companion. Is not her younger sister better than she? Please let her be to you instead of her.” 3 And Samson said to them, “This time I will be blameless regarding the Philistines when I do harm to them.” 4 And Samson went and caught 300 foxes, and he took torches, and he turned tail to tail, and he put one torch between two of the tails, in the middle. 5 And he kindled fire in the torches and sent them into the standing grain of the Philistines, and he burned from stack and to standing grain, and to grove of olive tree. 6 And the Philistines said, “Who has done this?” And they said, “Samson, the son-in-law of the Timnite, because he took his wife and gave her to his companion.” And the Philistines went up and burned her and her father with fire. 7 And Samson said to them, “If you have done like this, then if I avenge against you, then afterward I will stop.” 8 Then he struck them leg on thigh, a great striking. And he went down and stayed in the cleft of the rock of Etam.
9 And the Philistines went up and encamped in Judah, and they spread out in Lehi. 10 And the men of Judah said, “Why have you come up against us?” And they said, “We have come up to bind Samson, to do to him just as he has done to us.” 11 Then 3,000 men from Judah went down to the cleft of the rock of Etam, and they said to Samson, “Do you not know that the Philistines are ruling over us? So what is this you have done to us?” And he said to them, “Just as they did to me, so I have done to them.” 12 And they said to him, “We have come down to bind you, to give you into the hand of the Philistines.” And Samson said to them, “Swear to me that you will not strike me yourselves.” 13 And they spoke to him, saying, “No, but binding, we will bind you and we will give you into their hand, but putting to death, we will not put you to death.” Then they bound him with two new ropes and brought him up from the rock.
14 He came to Lehi, and the Philistines shouted to meet him. Then the Spirit of Yahweh rushed on him, and the ropes that were on his arms became like flax that they burn with fire, and his bonds melted from on his hands. 15 And he found a fresh jawbone of a donkey, and he stretched out his hand and took it, and with it he struck 1,000 men. 16 And Samson said,
“With the jawbone of a donkey,
a heap, two heaps,
with the jawbone of a donkey
I have struck 1,000 men.”
17 And it happened in his finishing to speak, that he threw the jawbone from his hand, so he called that place Ramath-lehi. 18 But he was very thirsty, so he called to Yahweh and said, “You have given this great salvation by the hand of your servant, and now shall I die of thirst and fall into the hand of the uncircumcised?” 19 Then God split open the hollow place that is in Lehi, and water came out from it. And he drank and his spirit returned, and he revived. Therefore, he called its name En-hakkore, which is in Lehi to this day. 20 And he judged Israel in the days of the Philistines 20 years.
