Judges 15:1-5

1Later onH1961H3117, at the timeH3117 of the wheatH2406 harvestH7105, SamsonH8123 tookH1423 a young goatH5795 and went to visitH6485 his wifeH802. “I want to goH935 toH413 my wifeH802 in her roomH2315,” he saidH559. But her fatherH1 would notH3808 let himH5414 enterH935.

2“I was sureH559 thatH3588 you thoroughly hated herH8130,” saidH559 her fatherH1, “so I gave herH5414 to one of the men who accompanied youH4828. Is notH3808 her youngerH6996 sisterH269 more beautifulH2896 than sheH4480? PleaseH4994 take herH1961 insteadH8478.”

3SamsonH8123 saidH559 to them, “This timeH6471 I will be blamelessH5352 in doingH6213 harmH7451 to the PhilistinesH6430.”

4Then SamsonH8123 went outH1980 and caughtH3920 threeH7969 hundredH3967 foxesH7776. And he tookH3947 torchesH3940, turnedH6437 the foxes tail-to-tailH2180H413, and fastenedH7760 aH259 torchH3940 betweenH996 each pairH8147 of tailsH2180H8432. 5Then he litH1197H784 the torchesH3940 and releasedH7971 the foxes into the standing grainH7054 of the PhilistinesH6430, burning upH1197 the piles of grainH1430H5704 and the standing grainH7054, as well asH5704 the vineyardsH3754 and olive grovesH2132.
