Judges 15:8-13
8And he struckH5221 themH853 ruthlesslyH7785H5921H34091 with a greatH1419 slaughterH4347, and then went downH3381 and stayedH3427 in the caveH5585 at the rockH5553 of EtamH5862.
9Then the PhilistinesH6430 went upH5927, campedH2583 in JudahH3063, and deployed themselvesH5203 near the town of LehiH3896.2
10“WhyH4100 have you attackedH5927 usH5921?” saidH559 the menH376 of JudahH3063.
The Philistines repliedH559, “We have comeH5927 to arrestH631 SamsonH8123 and pay him backH6213 for whatH834 he has doneH6213 to us.”
11In response, threeH7969 thousandH505 menH376 of JudahH3063 wentH3381 toH413 the caveH5585 at the rockH5553 of EtamH5862, and they askedH559 SamsonH8123, “Do you notH3808 realizeH3045 thatH3588 the PhilistinesH6430 ruleH4910 over us? WhatH4100H2063 have you doneH6213 to us?”
“I have doneH6213 to them whatH3651 they didH6213 to me,” he repliedH559.
12But they saidH559 to him, “We have come downH3381 to arrest youH631 and hand you over toH5414H3027 the PhilistinesH6430.”
SamsonH8123 repliedH559, “SwearH7650 to me thatH6435 you will not kill meH6293 yourselves.”
13“NoH3808,” they answeredH559, “we will notH3808H4191 kill youH4191, butH3588 we will tie you up securelyH631 and hand you over toH5414 themH3027.” So they bound himH631 with twoH8147 newH2319 ropesH5688 and led him upH5927 fromH4480 the rockH5553.
