Judges 16:28-30

281Then SamsonH8123 calledH7121 to the LordH3068 and saidH559, “LordH136 2GodH3068, pleaseH4994 rememberH2142 me and pleaseH4994 strengthenH2388 me justH389 thisH2088 timeH6471, O GodH430, that I may at onceH259 3take vengeanceH5358 on the PhilistinesH6430 for my twoH8147 eyesH5869.”

29Then SamsonH8123 graspedH3943 the twoH8147 middleH8432 pillarsH5982 on whichH834 the houseH1004 restedH3559, and bracedH5564 himself againstH5921 them, the oneH259 with his rightH3225 handH3225 and the otherH259 with his leftH8040.

30And SamsonH8123 saidH559, “Let 4me dieH4191 with the PhilistinesH6430!” And he pushedH5186 outwardsH5186 powerfullyH3581, so that the houseH1004 fellH5307 on the governorsH5633 and allH3605 the peopleH5971 whoH834 were in it. And the deadH4191 whomH834 he killedH4191 at his deathH4194 were moreH7227 thanH4480 those whomH834 he killedH4191 during his lifetimeH2425.
