- Then 3,000 men of Judah went down to the cleft of the rock of Etam and said to Samson, "Do you not know that the Philistines are rulers over us? What then is this that you have done to us?" And he said to them, "As they did to me, so I have done to them."
- They said to him, "We have come down to bind you so that we may give you into the hands of the Philistines." And Samson said to them, "Swear to me that you will not kill me."
- So they said to him, "No, but we will bind you fast and give you into their hands; yet surely we will not kill you." Then they bound him with two new ropes and brought him up from the rock.
- When he came to Lehi, the Philistines shouted as they met him. And the Spirit of the LORD came upon him mightily so that the ropes that were on his arms were as flax that is burned with fire, and his bonds dropped from his hands.
- He found a fresh jawbone of a donkey, so he reached out and took it and killed a thousand men with it.

- 于是有三千犹大人下到以坦磐的穴内,对参孙说,非利士人辖制我们,你不知道麽。你向我们行的是什么事呢。他回答说,他们向我怎样行,我也要向他们怎样行。
- 犹大人对他说,我们下来是要捆绑你,将你交在非利士人手中。参孙说,你们要向我起誓,应承你们自己不害死我。
- 他们说,我们断不杀你,只要将你捆绑交在非利士人手中。于是用两条新绳捆绑参孙,将他从以坦磐带上去。
- 参孙到了利希,非利士人都迎着喧囔。耶和华的灵大大感动参孙,他臂上的绳就像火烧的麻一样,他的绑绳都从他手上脱落下来。
- 他见一块未乾的驴腮骨,就伸手拾起来,用以击杀一千人。
