13. So they spoke to him, saying, “No, but we will tie you securely and deliver you into their hand; but we will surely not kill you.” And they bound him with two new ropes and brought him up from the rock.
14. When he came to Lehi, the Philistines came shouting against him. Then the Spirit of the Lord came mightily upon him; and the ropes that were on his arms became like flax that is burned with fire, and his bonds broke loose from his hands.
15. He found a fresh jawbone of a donkey, reached out his hand and took it, and killed a thousand men with it.
16. Then Samson said:“With the jawbone of a donkey,Heaps upon heaps,With the jawbone of a donkeyI have slain a thousand men!”
17. And so it was, when he had finished speaking, that he threw the jawbone from his hand, and called that place Ramath Lehi.
18. Then he became very thirsty; so he cried out to the Lord and said, “You have given this great deliverance by the hand of Your servant; and now shall I die of thirst and fall into the hand of the uncircumcised?”
19. So God split the hollow place that is in Lehi, and water came out, and he drank; and his spirit returned, and he revived. Therefore he called its name En Hakkore, which is in Lehi to this day.
20. And he judged Israel twenty years in the days of the Philistines.
