1 Then went1980 Samson8123 to Gaza,5804 and saw7200 there8033 a harlot,802 2181 and went in935 unto413 her. 2 And it was told the Gazites,5841 saying,559 Samson8123 is come935 hither.2008 And they compassed5437 him in, and laid wait693 for him all3605 night3915 in the gate8179 of the city,5892 and were quiet2790 all3605 the night,3915 saying,559 In the morning,1242 when5704 it is day,216 we shall kill2026 him. 3 And Samson8123 lay7901 till5704 midnight,2677 3915 and arose6965 at midnight,2677 3915 and took270 the doors1817 of the gate8179 of the city,5892 and the two8147 posts,4201 and went away5265 with them, bar and all,5973 1280 and put7760 them upon5921 his shoulders,3802 and carried them up5927 to413 the top7218 of a hill2022 that834 is before5921 6440 Hebron.2275 4 And it came to pass1961 afterward,310 3651 that he loved157 a woman802 in the valley5158 of Sorek,7796 whose name8034 was Delilah.1807 5 And the lords5633 of the Philistines6430 came up5927 unto413 her, and said559 unto her, Entice6601 him, and see7200 wherein4100 his great1419 strength3581 lieth, and by what4100 means we may prevail3201 against him, that we may bind631 him to afflict6031 him: and we587 will give5414 thee every one376 of us eleven hundred505 3967 pieces of silver.3701 6 And Delilah1807 said559 to413 Samson,8123 Tell5046 me, I pray thee,4994 wherein4100 thy great1419 strength3581 lieth, and wherewith4100 thou mightest be bound631 to afflict6031 thee. 7 And Samson8123 said559 unto413 her, If518 they bind631 me with seven7651 green3892 withes3499 that834 were never3808 dried,2717 then shall I be weak,2470 and be1961 as another259 man.120 8 Then the lords5633 of the Philistines6430 brought up5927 to her seven7651 green3892 withes3499 which834 had not3808 been dried,2717 and she bound631 him with them. 9 Now there were men lying in wait,693 abiding3427 with her in the chamber.2315 And she said559 unto413 him, The Philistines6430 be upon5921 thee, Samson.8123 And he broke5423 853 the withes,3499 as834 a thread6616 of tow5296 is broken5423 when it toucheth7306 the fire.784 So his strength3581 was not3808 known.3045 10 And Delilah1807 said559 unto413 Samson,8123 Behold,2009 thou hast mocked2048 me, and told1696 413 me lies:3577 now6258 tell5046 me, I pray thee,4994 wherewith4100 thou mightest be bound.631 11 And he said559 unto413 her, If518 they bind me fast631 631 with new2319 ropes5688 that834 never3808 were occupied,6213 4399 then shall I be weak,2470 and be1961 as another259 man.120 12 Delilah1807 therefore took3947 new2319 ropes,5688 and bound631 him therewith, and said559 unto413 him, The Philistines6430 be upon5921 thee, Samson.8123 And there were liers in wait693 abiding3427 in the chamber.2315 And he broke5423 them from off4480 5921 his arms2220 like a thread.2339 13 And Delilah1807 said559 unto413 Samson,8123 Hitherto5704 2008 thou hast mocked2048 me, and told1696 413 me lies:3576 tell5046 me wherewith4100 thou mightest be bound.631 And he said559 unto413 her, If518 thou weavest707 853 the seven7651 locks4253 of my head7218 with5973 the web.4545 14 And she fastened8628 it with the pin,3489 and said559 unto413 him, The Philistines6430 be upon5921 thee, Samson.8123 And he awaked3364 out of his sleep,4480 8142 and went away5265 853 with the pin3489 of the beam,708 and with the web.4545 15 And she said559 unto413 him, How349 canst thou say,559 I love157 thee, when thine heart3820 is not369 with854 me? thou hast mocked2048 me these three7969 times,6471 and hast not3808 told5046 me wherein4100 thy great1419 strength3581 lieth. 16 And it came to pass,1961 when3588 she pressed6693 him daily3605 3117 with her words,1697 and urged509 him, so that his soul5315 was vexed7114 unto death;4191 17 That he told5046 her 853 all3605 his heart,3820 and said559 unto her, There hath not3808 come5927 a razor4177 upon5921 mine head;7218 for3588 I589 have been a Nazarite5139 unto God430 from my mother's517 womb:4480 990 if518 I be shaven,1548 then my strength3581 will go5493 from4480 me, and I shall become weak,2470 and be1961 like any3605 other man.120 18 And when Delilah1807 saw7200 that3588 he had told5046 her 853 all3605 his heart,3820 she sent7971 and called7121 for the lords5633 of the Philistines,6430 saying,559 Come up5927 this once,6471 for3588 he hath showed5046 me 853 all3605 his heart.3820 Then the lords5633 of the Philistines6430 came up5927 unto413 her, and brought5927 money3701 in their hand.3027 19 And she made him sleep3462 upon5921 her knees;1290 and she called7121 for a man,376 and she caused him to shave off1548 853 the seven7651 locks4253 of his head;7218 and she began2490 to afflict6031 him, and his strength3581 went5493 from4480 5921 him. 20 And she said,559 The Philistines6430 be upon5921 thee, Samson.8123 And he awoke3364 out of his sleep,4480 8142 and said,559 I will go out3318 as at other times before,6471 6471 and shake myself.5287 And he1931 knew3045 not3808 that3588 the LORD3068 was departed5493 from4480 5921 him. 21 But the Philistines6430 took270 him, and put out5365 853 his eyes,5869 and brought him down3381 853 to Gaza,5804 and bound631 him with fetters of brass;5178 and he did1961 grind2912 in the prison615 house.1004 22 Howbeit the hair8181 of his head7218 began2490 to grow again6779 after834 he was shaven.1548 23 Then the lords5633 of the Philistines6430 gathered them together622 for to offer2076 a great1419 sacrifice2077 unto Dagon1712 their god,430 and to rejoice:8057 for they said,559 Our god430 hath delivered5414 853 Samson8123 our enemy341 into our hand.3027 24 And when the people5971 saw7200 him, they praised1984 853 their god:430 for3588 they said,559 Our god430 hath delivered5414 into our hands3027 853 our enemy,341 and the destroyer2717 of our country,776 which834 slew many7235 853 2491 of us. 25 And it came to pass,1961 when3588 their hearts3820 were merry,2896 that they said,559 Call7121 for Samson,8123 that he may make us sport.7832 And they called7121 for Samson8123 out of the prison house;4480 1004 615 and he made them sport:6711 6440 and they set5975 him between996 the pillars.5982 26 And Samson8123 said559 unto413 the lad5288 that held2388 him by the hand,3027 Suffer5117 me that I may feel4184 853 the pillars5982 whereupon834 5921 the house1004 standeth,3559 that I may lean8172 upon5921 them. 27 Now the house1004 was full4390 of men376 and women;802 and all3605 the lords5633 of the Philistines6430 were there;8033 and there were upon5921 the roof1406 about three7969 thousand505 men376 and women,802 that beheld7200 while Samson8123 made sport.7832 28 And Samson8123 called7121 unto413 the LORD,3068 and said,559 O Lord136 GOD,3069 remember2142 me, I pray thee,4994 and strengthen2388 me, I pray thee,4994 only389 this2088 once,6471 O God,430 that I may be at once avenged5358 5359 259 of the Philistines4480 6430 for my two4480 8147 eyes.5869 29 And Samson8123 took hold3943 of 853 the two8147 middle8432 pillars5982 upon5921 which834 the house1004 stood,3559 and on5921 which it was borne up,5564 of the one259 with his right hand,3225 and of the other259 with his left.8040 30 And Samson8123 said,559 Let me5315 die4191 with5973 the Philistines.6430 And he bowed5186 himself with all his might;3581 and the house1004 fell5307 upon5921 the lords,5633 and upon5921 all3605 the people5971 that834 were therein. So the dead4191 which834 he slew4191 at his death4194 were1961 more7227 than they which4480 834 he slew4191 in his life.2416 31 Then his brethren251 and all3605 the house1004 of his father1 came down,3381 and took5375 him, and brought him up,5927 and buried6912 him between996 Zorah6881 and Eshtaol847 in the burial place6913 of Manoah4495 his father.1 And he1931 judged8199 853 Israel3478 twenty6242 years.8141 |
1 καὶ ἐπορεύθη Σαμψων εἰς Γάζαν καὶ εἶδεν ἐκεῖ γυναῖκα πόρνην καὶ εἰσῆλθεν πρὸς αὐτήν 2 καὶ ἀνηγγέλη τοῖς Γαζαίοις λέγοντες ἥκει Σαμψων ὧδε καὶ ἐκύκλωσαν καὶ ἐνήδρευσαν ἐπ᾽ αὐτὸν ὅλην τὴν νύκτα ἐν τῇ πύλῃ τῆς πόλεως καὶ ἐκώφευσαν ὅλην τὴν νύκτα λέγοντες ἕως διαφαύσῃ ὁ ὄρθρος καὶ φονεύσωμεν αὐτόν 3 καὶ ἐκοιμήθη Σαμψων ἕως μεσονυκτίου καὶ ἀνέστη ἐν ἡμίσει τῆς νυκτὸς καὶ ἐπελάβετο τῶν θυρῶν τῆς πύλης τῆς πόλεως σὺν τοῖς δυσὶ σταθμοῖς καὶ ἀνεβάστασεν αὐτὰς σὺν τῷ μοχλῷ καὶ ἔθηκεν ἐπ᾽ ὤμων αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀνέβη ἐπὶ τὴν κορυφὴν τοῦ ὄρους τοῦ ἐπὶ προσώπου Χεβρων καὶ ἔθηκεν αὐτὰ ἐκεῖ 4 καὶ ἐγένετο μετὰ τοῦτο καὶ ἠγάπησεν γυναῖκα ἐν Αλσωρηχ καὶ ὄνομα αὐτῇ Δαλιδα 5 καὶ ἀνέβησαν πρὸς αὐτὴν οἱ ἄρχοντες τῶν ἀλλοφύλων καὶ εἶπαν αὐτῇ ἀπάτησον αὐτὸν καὶ ἰδὲ ἐν τίνι ἡ ἰσχὺς αὐτοῦ ἡ μεγάλη καὶ ἐν τίνι δυνησόμεθα

ὕπνου αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐξῆρεν τὸν πάσσαλον τοῦ ὑφάσματος ἐκ τοῦ τοίχου 15 καὶ εἶπεν Δαλιδα πρὸς Σαμψων πῶς λέγεις ἠγάπηκά σε καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν ἡ καρδία σου μετ᾽ ἐμοῦ τοῦτο τρίτον ἐπλάνησάς με καὶ οὐκ ἀπήγγειλάς μοι ἐν τίνι ἡ ἰσχύς σου ἡ μεγάλη 16 καὶ ἐγένετο ὅτε ἐξέθλιψεν αὐτὸν ἐν λόγοις αὐτῆς πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας καὶ ἐστενοχώρησεν αὐτόν καὶ ὠλιγοψύχησεν ἕως τοῦ ἀποθανεῖν 17 καὶ ἀνήγγειλεν αὐτῇ τὴν πᾶσαν καρδίαν αὐτοῦ καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῇ σίδηρος οὐκ ἀνέβη ἐπὶ τὴν κεφαλήν μου ὅτι ἅγιος θεοῦ ἐγώ εἰμι ἀπὸ κοιλίας μητρός μου ἐὰν οὖν ξυρήσωμαι ἀποστήσεται ἀπ᾽ ἐμοῦ ἡ ἰσχύς μου καὶ ἀσθενήσω καὶ ἔσομαι ὡς πάντες οἱ

δεσμωτηρίου καὶ ἔπαιζεν ἐνώπιον αὐτῶν καὶ ἐρράπιζον αὐτὸν καὶ ἔστησαν αὐτὸν ἀνὰ μέσον τῶν κιόνων 26 καὶ εἶπεν Σαμψων πρὸς τὸν νεανίαν τὸν κρατοῦντα τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ ἄφες με καὶ ψηλαφήσω τοὺς κίονας ἐφ᾽ οἷς ὁ οἶκος στήκει ἐπ᾽ αὐτούς καὶ ἐπιστηριχθήσομαι ἐπ᾽ αὐτούς 27 καὶ ὁ οἶκος πλήρης τῶν ἀνδρῶν καὶ τῶν γυναικῶν καὶ ἐκεῖ πάντες οἱ ἄρχοντες τῶν ἀλλοφύλων καὶ ἐπὶ τὸ δῶμα ὡς ἑπτακόσιοι ἄνδρες καὶ

τῶν δύο ὀφθαλμῶν μου τοῖς ἀλλοφύλοις 29 καὶ περιέλαβεν Σαμψων τοὺς δύο κίονας τοῦ οἴκου ἐφ᾽ οὓς ὁ οἶκος εἱστήκει καὶ ἐπεστηρίχθη ἐπ᾽ αὐτοὺς καὶ ἐκράτησεν ἕνα τῇ δεξιᾷ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἕνα τῇ ἀριστερᾷ αὐτοῦ 30 καὶ εἶπεν Σαμψων ἀποθανέτω ψυχή μου μετὰ ἀλλοφύλων καὶ ἐβάσταξεν ἐν ἰσχύι καὶ ἔπεσεν ὁ οἶκος ἐπὶ τοὺς ἄρχοντας καὶ ἐπὶ πάντα τὸν λαὸν τὸν ἐν αὐτῷ καὶ ἦσαν οἱ τεθνηκότες οὓς ἐθανάτωσεν Σαμψων ἐν τῷ θανάτῳ αὐτοῦ πλείους ἢ οὓς ἐθανάτωσεν ἐν τῇ ζωῇ αὐτοῦ 31 καὶ κατέβησαν οἱ ἀδελφοὶ αὐτοῦ καὶ ὁ οἶκος τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ καὶ ἔλαβον αὐτὸν καὶ ἀνέβησαν καὶ ἔθαψαν αὐτὸν ἀνὰ μέσον Σαραα καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον Εσθαολ

αὐτοῦ καὶ ἤρξατο ταπεινοῦσθαι καὶ ἀπέστη ἡ ἰσχὺς αὐτοῦ ἀπ᾽ αὐτοῦ 20 καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Δαλιλα οἱ ἀλλόφυλοι ἐπὶ σέ Σαμψων καὶ ἐξηγέρθη ἐκ τοῦ ὕπνου αὐτοῦ καὶ εἶπεν ἐξελεύσομαι καὶ ποιήσω καθὼς ἀεὶ καὶ ἀποτινάξομαι καὶ αὐτὸς οὐκ ἔγνω ὅτι κύριος ἀπέστη ἀπ᾽ αὐτοῦ 21 καὶ ἐπελάβοντο αὐτοῦ οἱ ἀλλόφυλοι καὶ ἐξώρυξαν τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτοῦ καὶ κατήγαγον αὐτὸν εἰς Γάζαν καὶ ἔδησαν αὐτὸν ἐν πέδαις χαλκαῖς καὶ ἦν ἀλήθων ἐν οἴκῳ τῆς φυλακῆς 22 καὶ ἤρξατο ἡ θρὶξ τῆς κεφαλῆς αὐτοῦ ἀνατεῖλαι ἡνίκα ἐξυρήθη 23 καὶ οἱ σατράπαι τῶν ἀλλοφύλων συνήχθησαν τοῦ θῦσαι θυσίαν μεγάλην Δαγων τῷ θεῷ αὐτῶν καὶ τοῦ εὐφρανθῆναι καὶ εἶπαν παρέδωκεν ὁ θεὸς ἡμῶν ἐν χειρὶ ἡμῶν Σαμψων τὸν ἐχθρὸν ἡμῶν 24 καὶ εἶδεν αὐτὸν ὁ λαὸς καὶ ᾔνεσαν τοὺς θεοὺς αὐτῶν καὶ εἶπαν παρέδωκεν ὁ θεὸς ἡμῶν τὸν ἐχθρὸν ἡμῶν ἐν χειρὶ ἡμῶν καὶ τὸν ἐξερημοῦντα τὴν γῆν ἡμῶν ὅστις ἐπλήθυνεν τοὺς τραυματίας ἡμῶν 25 καὶ ἐγένετο ὅτε ἠγαθύνθη ἡ καρδία αὐτῶν καὶ εἶπαν καλέσατε τὸν Σαμψων ἐξ οἴκου φυλακῆς καὶ παιξάτω ἐνώπιον ἡμῶν καὶ ἐκάλεσαν τὸν Σαμψων ἐξ οἴκου τῆς φυλακῆς καὶ ἐνέπαιζον αὐτῷ καὶ ἔστησαν αὐτὸν ἀνὰ μέσον τῶν δύο στύλων 26 καὶ εἶπεν Σαμψων πρὸς τὸ παιδάριον τὸν χειραγωγοῦντα αὐτόν ἐπανάπαυσόν με δὴ καὶ ποίησον ψηλαφῆσαί με ἐπὶ τοὺς στύλους ἐφ᾽ ὧν ὁ οἶκος ἐπεστήρικται ἐπ᾽ αὐτῶν καὶ ἐπιστηρίσομαι ἐπ᾽ αὐτούς ὁ δὲ παῖς ἐποίησεν οὕτως 27 ὁ δὲ οἶκος ἦν πλήρης ἀνδρῶν καὶ γυναικῶν καὶ ἐκεῖ πάντες οἱ σατράπαι τῶν ἀλλοφύλων καὶ ἐπὶ τοῦ δώματος ὡσεὶ τρισχίλιοι ἄνδρες καὶ γυναῖκες ἐμβλέποντες ἐμπαιζόμενον τὸν Σαμψων 28 καὶ ἐβόησεν Σαμψων πρὸς κύριον καὶ εἶπεν κύριε κύριε μνήσθητί μου καὶ ἐνίσχυσόν με δὴ πλὴν ἔτι τὸ ἅπαξ τοῦτο καὶ ἐκδικήσω ἐκδίκησιν μίαν ἀντὶ τῶν δύο ὀφθαλμῶν μου ἐκ τῶν ἀλλοφύλων 29 καὶ περιέλαβεν Σαμψων τοὺς δύο στύλους τοὺς μέσους ἐφ᾽ ὧν ὁ οἶκος ἐπεστήρικτο ἐπ᾽ αὐτῶν καὶ ἐπεστηρίσατο ἐπ᾽ αὐτοῖς ἕνα ἐν τῇ δεξιᾷ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἕνα ἐν τῇ ἀριστερᾷ αὐτοῦ 30 καὶ εἶπεν Σαμψων ἀποθανέτω ἡ ψυχή μου μετὰ τῶν ἀλλοφύλων καὶ ἔκλινεν ἐν ἰσχύι καὶ ἔπεσεν ὁ οἶκος ἐπὶ τοὺς σατράπας καὶ ἐπὶ πάντα τὸν λαὸν τὸν ἐν αὐτῷ καὶ ἐγένοντο οἱ τεθνηκότες οὓς ἐθανάτωσεν Σαμψων ἐν τῷ θανάτῳ αὐτοῦ πλείους ὑπὲρ οὓς ἐθανάτωσεν ἐν τῇ ζωῇ αὐτοῦ 31 καὶ κατέβησαν οἱ ἀδελφοὶ αὐτοῦ καὶ πᾶς ὁ οἶκος τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ καὶ ἔλαβον αὐτὸν καὶ ἀνέβησαν καὶ ἔθαψαν αὐτὸν ἀνὰ μέσον Σαραα καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον Εσθαολ ἐν τῷ τάφῳ Μανωε τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ καὶ αὐτὸς ἔκρινεν τὸν Ισραηλ εἴκοσι ἔτη |

1 Abiit quoque in Gazam, et vidit ibi mulierem meretricem, ingressusque est ad eam. 2 Quod cum audissent Philisthiim, et percrebruisset apud eos intrasse urbem Samson, circumdederunt eum, positis in porta civitatis custodibus: et ibi tota nocte cum silentio præstolantes, ut facto mane exeuntem occiderent. 3 Dormivit autem Samson usque ad medium noctem: et inde consurgens, apprehendit ambas portæ fores cum postibus suis et sera, impositasque humeris suis portavit ad verticem montis, qui respicit Hebron. 4 Post hæc amavit mulierem, quæ habitabat in valle Sorec, et vocabatur Dalila. 5 Veneruntque ad eam principes Philisthinorum, atque dixerunt: Decipe eum, et disce ab illo, in quo habeat tantam fortitudinem, et quomodo eam superare valeamus, et vinctum affligere: quod si feceris, dabimus tibi singuli mille et centum argenteos. 6 Locuta est ergo Dalila ad Samson: Dic mihi, obsecro, in quo sit tua maxima fortitudo, et quid sit quo ligatus erumpere nequeas? 7 Cui respondit Samson: Si septem nerviceis funibus necdum siccis, et adhuc humentibus, ligatus fuero, infirmus ero ut ceteri homines. 8 Attuleruntque ad eam satrapæ Philisthinorum septem funes, ut dixerat: quibus vinxit eam, 9 latentibus apud se insidiis, et in cubiculo finem rei expectantibus: clamavitque ad eum: Philisthiim super te, Samson. Qui rupit vincula, quomodo si rumpat quis filum de stuppæ tortum putamine, cum odorem ignis acceperit: et non est cognitum in quo esset fortitudo ejus. 10 Dixitque ad eum Dalila: Ecce illusisti mihi, et falsum locutus es: saltem nunc indica mihi quo ligari debeas. 11 Cui ille respondit: Si ligatus fuero novis funibus, qui numquam fuerunt in opere, infirmus ero, et aliorum hominum similis. 12 Quibus rursum Dalila vinxit eum, et clamavit: Philisthiim super te, Samson: in cubiculo insidiis præparatis. Qui ita rupit vincula quasi fila telarum. 13 Dixitque Dalila rursum ad eum: Usquequo decipis me, et falsum loqueris? ostende quo vinciri debeas. Cui respondit Samson: Si septem crines capitis mei cum licio plexueris, et clavum his circumligatum terræ fixeris, infirmus ero. 14 Quod cum fecisset Dalila, dixit ad eum: Philisthiim super te, Samson. Qui consurgens de somno extraxit clavum cum crinibus et licio. 15 Dixitque ad eum Dalila: Quomodo dicis quod amas me, cum animus tuus non sit mecum? Per tres vices mentitus es mihi, et noluisti dicere in quo sit maxima fortitudo tua. 16 Cumque molesta esset ei, et per multos dies jugiter adhæreret, spatium ad quietem non tribuens, defecit anima ejus, et ad mortem usque lassata est. 17 Tunc aperiens veritatem rei, dixit ad eam: Ferrum numquam ascendit super caput meum, quia nazaræus, id est, consecratus Deo, sum de utero matris meæ: si rasum fuerit caput meum, recedet a me fortitudo mea, et deficiam, eroque sicut ceteri homines. 18 Vidensque illa quod confessus ei esset omnem animum suum, misit ad principes Philisthinorum ac mandavit: Ascende adhuc semel, quia nunc mihi aperuit cor suum. Qui ascenderunt assumpta pecunia, quam promiserant. 19 At illa dormire eum fecit super genua sua, et in sinu suo reclinare caput. Vocavitque tonsorem, et rasit septem crines ejus, et cpit abigere eum, et a se repellere: statim enim ab eo fortitudo discessit. 20 Dixitque: Philisthiim super te, Samson. Qui de somno consurgens, dixit in animo suo: Egrediar sicut ante feci, et me excutiam: nesciens quod recessisset ab eo Dominus. 21 Quem cum apprehendissent Philisthiim, statim eruerunt oculos ejus, et duxerunt Gazam vinctum catenis, et clausum in carcere molere fecerunt. 22 Jamque capilli ejus renasci cperunt. 23 Principes Philisthinorum convenerunt in unum ut immolarent hostias magnificas Dagon deo suo, et epularentur, dicentes: Tradidit deus noster inimicum nostrum Samson in manus nostras. 24 Quod etiam populus videns, laudabat deum suum, eademque dicebat: Tradidit deus noster adversarium nostrum in manus nostras, qui delevit terram nostram, et occidit plurimos. 25 Lætantesque per convivia, sumptis jam epulis, præceperunt ut vocaretur Samson, et ante eos luderet. Qui adductus de carcere ludebat ante eos, feceruntque eum stare inter duas columnas. 26 Qui dixit puero regenti gressus suos: Dimitte me, ut tangam columnas, quibus omnis imminet domus, et recliner super eas, et paululum requiescam. 27 Domus autem erat plena virorum ac mulierum, et erant ibi omnes principes Philisthinorum, ac de tecto et solario circiter tria millia utriusque sexus spectantes ludentem Samson. 28 At ille invocato Domino ait: Domine Deus, memento mei, et redde mihi nunc fortitudinem pristinam, Deus meus, ut ulciscar me de hostibus meis, et pro amissione duorum luminum unam ultionem recipiam. 29 Et apprehendens ambas columnas quibus innitebatur domus, alteramque earum dextera et alteram læva tenens, 30 ait: Moriatur anima mea cum Philisthiim. Concussisque fortiter columnis, cecidit domus super omnes principes, et ceteram multitudinem quæ ibi erat: multoque plures interfecit moriens, quam ante vivus occiderat. 31 Descendentes autem fratres ejus et universa cognatio, tulerunt corpus ejus, et sepelierunt inter Saraa et Esthaol in sepulchro patris sui Manue: judicavitque Israël viginti annis. |
