Judges 15:14-19

14When he cameH935 unto LehiH3896, the PhilistinesH6430 shoutedH7321 as they met him: and the SpiritH7307 of Jehovah cameH935 mightily upon him, and the ropesH5688 that were upon his armsH2220 becameH1961 as flaxH6593 that wasH1961 burnt with fireH784, and his bands dropped from off his handsH3027. 15And he foundH4672 a freshH2961 jawboneH3895 of an ass, and put forthH7971 his handH3027, and tookH3947 it, and smote a thousandH505 menH376 therewith. 16And SamsonH8123 saidH559,

With the jawboneH3895 of an ass, heaps upon heaps,With the jawboneH3895 of an ass have I smitten a thousandH505 menH376.

17And it came to pass, when he had made an endH3615 of speakingH1696, that he castH7993 awayH7993 the jawboneH3895 out of his handH3027; and that placeH4725 wasH1961 calledH7121 Ramath-lehi. 18And he was sore athirst, and calledH7121 on Jehovah, and saidH559, Thou hast givenH5414 this greatH1419 deliveranceH8668 by the handH3027 of thy servantH5650; and nowH6258 shall I dieH4191 for thirstH6772, and fallH5307 into the handH3027 of the uncircumcisedH6189. 19But GodH430 clave the hollow placeH2088 that is in LehiH3896, and there cameH3318 waterH4325 thereout; and when he had drunkH8354, his spiritH7307 cameH3318 again, and he revived: wherefore the nameH8034 thereof was calledH7121 En-hakkore, which is in LehiH3896, unto this dayH3117.
