5 He set fire to the torches and sent the foxes into standing grain of the Philistines. He burned the harvested grain, standing grain, vineyards, and olive trees.
6 The Philistines asked, “Who did this?” They said, “Samson, the son-in-law of the Timnite, because the Timnite took the bride of Samson and gave her to his best man.”So the Philistines went up and burned her and her father with fire.
7 Samson said to them, “Because you have done this, I will take revenge on you, and afterwards I will stop.”
8 He struck them down with a mighty blow, then went to live in a cave in Etam Rock.
9 Then the Philistines went up and set up camp in Judah. They deployed against Lehi.
10 The men of Judah said, “Why have you come up against us?”They said, “It is to take Samson prisoner that we have come up, to do to him what he did to us.”
11 So three thousand men from Judah went to the cave in Etam Rock and said to Samson, “Do you not know that the Philistines are ruling us? Why have you done this to us?”He said to them, “As they did to me, so I have done to them.”
