5 and set the torches on fire, and sent them out into the standing grain of the Philistines, and burned up both the shocks and the standing grain, even the vineyards and olive-trees.
6 And the Philistines said, “Who did this?” And they answered, “Shimshon, the son-in-law of the Timnite, because he took away his wife and gave her to his companion.” Then the Philistines went up and burned her and her father with fire.
7 And Shimshon said to them, “Though you do this, yet I shall take revenge on you, and after that I cease.”
8 And he smote them hip and thigh, a great slaughter, and went down and dwelt in the cleft of the rock of Ěytam.
9 The Philistines then went up and encamped in Yehuḏah, and spread out against Leḥi.
10 And the men of Yehuḏah said, “Why have you come up against us?” And they answered, “We have come up to bind Shimshon, to do to him as he has did to us.”
11 Then three thousand men of Yehuḏah went down to the cleft of the rock of Ěytam and said to Shimshon, “Do you not know that the Philistines are rulers over us? Why have you have done this to us?” And he said to them, “As they did to me, so I did to them.”
