Judges 15:14-19

English Standard Version

¹⁴ When he came to Lehi, the Philistines came shouting to meet him. ^(A)Then the Spirit of the Lord rushed upon him, and the ropes that were on his arms became as flax that has caught fire, and his bonds melted off his hands. ¹⁵ And he found a fresh jawbone of a donkey, and put out his hand and took it, ^(B)and with it he struck 1,000 men. ¹⁶ And Samson said,

¹⁷ As soon as he had finished speaking, he threw away the jawbone out of his hand. And that place ^(C)was called Ramath-lehi.^[a]

¹⁸ And he was very thirsty, and he called upon the Lord and said, ^(D)“You have granted this great salvation by the hand of your servant, and shall I now die of thirst and fall into the hands of the uncircumcised?” ¹⁹ And God split open the hollow place that is ^(E)at Lehi, and water came out from it. And when he drank, ^(F)his spirit returned, and he revived. Therefore the name of it was called En-hakkore;^[b] it is at Lehi to this day.
