10. Athi amadoda akwaYuda, Yini na ukuba ninyuke nize phezu kwethu? Athi wona, Sinyuke seza kukhonkxa uSamson, senze kuye njengoko enze ngako kuthi.
11. Ehla amadoda angamawaka amathathu, evela kwaYuda, aya emqhokrweni wengxondorha yase-Etam, athi kuSamson, Akwazi na ukuba amaFilisti ayasilawula? Yintoni na le usenzé yona? Wathi kuwo, Njengoko enze ngako kum, ndenzé ngako nam kuwo.
12. Athi kuye, Sihlé, sizé kukukhonkxa, ukuba sikunikele esandleni samaFilisti. Wathi uSamson kuwo, Ndifungeleni, ukuba aniyi kundibulala ngokwenu.
13. Athi kuye, Siya kukukhonkxa sikuqinise, sikunikele esandleni sawo; ukukubulala, asiyi kukubulala. Amkhonkxa ngezintya ezintsha ezimbini, amnyusa engxondorheni.
14. Weza eLehi; amaFilisti amkhawulela eduma. Wamfikela ngamandla uMoya kaYehova; izintya ebezisemikhonweni yakhe zaba njengeflakisi* etshe ngumlilo, amakhamandela akhe acombuluka ezandleni zakhe.
15. Wafumanana nomhlathi omtsha we-esile, wasolula isandla, wawuthabatha, wabulala ngawo iwaka lamadoda.
16. Wathi uSamson,Ngomhlathi we-esile zizigigaba ngezigigaba;Ngomhlathi we-esile ndisiké iwaka lamadoda.Kwathi, akugqiba ukuthetha, wawulahla umhlathi esandleni sakhe,
17. wathi loo ndawo yiRamati-lehi.*
18. Wanxanwa kakhulu, wanqula uYehova, wathi, Wena uniké ngesandla somkhonzi wakho usindiso olungaka; kanti nanku ndiya kufa linxano, ndeyele esandleni sabangalukanga.
