Judges 16:26-31

26And SamsonH8123 saidH559 to the ladH5288 that heldH2388 him by the handH3027, Let loose of me, and suffer me to feel the pillarsH5982 upon which the houseH1004 stands, that I may leanH8172 upon them. 27Now the houseH1004 was fullH4390 of menH376 and womenH802; and all the lords of the PhilistinesH6430 were there; and upon the roofH1406 there were about threeH7969 thousandH505 menH376 and womenH802, who lookedH7200 on while SamsonH8123 made sport. 28And SamsonH8123 calledH7121 to Jehovah, and saidH559, Lord Jehovah, rememberH2142 me, I pray thee, and strengthenH2388 me, I pray thee, onlyH389 this once, O 1GodH430, that I may takeH2388 oneH259 vengeanceH5359 upon the PhilistinesH6430 for my twoH8147 eyesH5869. 29And SamsonH8123 took hold of the twoH8147 middleH8432 pillarsH5982 upon which the houseH1004 stood (and he supported himself upon them), the oneH259 with his rightH3225 handH3225 and the other with his left. 30And SamsonH8123 saidH559, Let me dieH4191 with the PhilistinesH6430! And he bowed himself with might; and the houseH1004 fellH5307 on the lords, and on all the peopleH5971 that were therein. So the deadH4191 that he slew at his deathH4191 were more than those whom he had slain in his lifeH5315. 31And his brethren cameH5927 downH3381, and all the houseH1004 of his fatherH1, and tookH5375 him, and broughtH5927 him up, and buriedH6912 him between Zoreah and EshtaolH847 in the sepulchre of ManoahH4495 his fatherH1. And he had judgedH8199 IsraelH3478 twentyH6242 yearsH8141.
