New Testament

Judges 15:16-20 God's Word Translation (GW)

16. Then Samson said,“With a jawbone from a donkey,I’ve made two piles of them.With a jawbone from a donkey,I’ve killed a thousand men.”

17. When he finished saying this, he threw the jawbone away. He called that place Ramath Lehi [Jawbone Hill].

18. Samson was very thirsty. So he called out to the Lord and said, “You have given me this great victory. But now I’ll die from thirst and fall into the power of godless men.”

19. So God split open the hollow place at Lehi, and water gushed out. Samson drank some water. Then he was refreshed and revived. So he called the place En Hakkore [Spring of the One Who Calls Out]. It is still there at Lehi today.

20. Samson judged Israel for 20 years during the time of the Philistines.
