15. Coming upon the fresh jawbone of an ass, he reached out, grasped it, and with it killed a thousand men.
16. Then Samson said,“With the jawbone of an assI have piled them in a heap;With the jawbone of an assI have slain a thousand men.”
17. As he finished speaking he threw the jawbone from him; and so that place was named Ramath-lehi.
18. Being very thirsty, he cried to the Lord and said, “You have put this great victory into the hand of your servant. Must I now die of thirst and fall into the hands of the uncircumcised?”
19. Then God split the cavity in Lehi, and water issued from it, and Samson drank till his spirit returned and he revived. Hence it is called En-hakkore in Lehi to this day.
20. Samson judged Israel for twenty years in the days of the Philistines.
