1 The next year, however, in the days of the wheat harvest, Sampson visited his wife with a kid of the goats, and said, Let me go in, to my wife, into the chamber; but her father would not suffer him to go in.
2 And her father said, I thought that thou didst utterly hate her, therefore I gave her to one of thy friends. But is not her younger sister better than she? Let this one, I pray thee, be thine, instead of her.
3 Thereupon Sampson said to them, Now, at least for once, I must be justified by the Philistines in doing them an injury.
4 Then Sampson went and caught three hundred foxes, and he took torches; and when he had turned tail to tail, he put a torch between every two tails, and tied them,
5 and set fire to the torches, and let them go through the standing corn of the Philistines. And they burned both what was on the threshing floors, and the standing corn, and also the vineyards, and the olive trees.
6 Whereupon the Philistines said, Who hath done this? And when they were told that it was Sampson, the son in law of Thamni, because he had taken his wife, and given her to one of his friends, the Philistines went up and burned her, and her father's house, with fire.
7 And Sampson said to them, As you have served her, so I will take vengeance on you, and then I will be at rest.
8 So he smote them in combat with a great slaughter, and went down and dwelt in a hollow of the rock Etam.
9 Then the Philistines went up, and encamped in Juda, and spread themselves through Lechi.
10 And the chief of Juda said, Why are you come up against us? And the Philistines said, We are come up to bind Sampson, and to do to him as he hath done to us.
11 Upon this three thousand men of Juda went down to the hollow of the rock Etam, and said to Sampson, Dost thou not know that the Philistines have dominion over us? Why then hast thou done this to us? And Sampson said, As they did to me, so have I done to them.
12 Then they said to him, We are come down to bind thee, and deliver thee into the hands of the Philistines. And Sampson said to them, Swear to me. Perhaps yon yourselves will fall upon me.
13 And they said to him, No; we will only bind thee fast, and deliver thee into their hands; but we will not put thee to death. So they bound him with two new ropes, and brought him up from the rock.
14 And when they came to Jaw hone, the Philistines shouted, and ran to meet him. And the Spirit of the Lord came upon him; and the cords which were on his arms became like tow, which is burned with fire; and the bands dropped from his hands,
15 and he found the jaw bone of an ass lying there; so he stretched forth his hand, and took it up, and with it smote a thousand men.
16 And Sampson said, With the jaw of an ass I have utterly routed them; for with the jaw of an ass I have slain a thousand men.
17 And when he had done speaking, he threw the jaw out of his hand, and called that place, Slaughter of the jaw.
18 And being very thirsty he wept before the Lord and said, Thou hast vouchsafed this great deliverance to the hand of thy servant; but now I must die of thirst, and fall into the hands of the uncircumcised.
