Judges 14:5-6 5 Then went Samson down, and his father and his mother, to Timnath, and came to the vineyards of Timnath: and, behold, a young lion roared against him. 6 And the Spirit of the LORD came mightily upon him, and he rent him as he would have rent a kid, and he had nothing in his hand: but he told not his father or his mother what he had done. Richteren 14:5-6 5 Also ginck Simson met sijnen vader ende sijne moeder henen af, nae Thimnath: als sy nu quamen tot aen de wijngaerden van Thimnath; siet daer, een jonge leeuw, brullende hem te gemoete. 6 Doe wert de Geest des HEEREN veerdich over hem, dat hy hem van een scheurde, gelijckmen een bocxken van een scheurt, ende daer en was niets in sijne hant: doch hy en gaf sijnen vader ende sijner moeder niet te kennen, wat hy gedaen hadde.

Richteren 16:25-30 Ende het geschiedde, als haer herte vrolick was, dat sy seyden; Roept Simson, dat hy voor ons spele: ende sy riepen Simson uyt het gevangenhuys, ende hy speelde voor hare aengesichten, ende sy deden hem staen tusschen de pilaren. Doe seyde Simson tot den jongen, die hem by de hant hielt; Laet my gaen, dat ick de pilaren betaste, op de welcke het huys gevestigt is, dat ick daer aen lene. Het huys nu was vol mannen ende wijven; oock waren daer alle Vorsten der Philistijnen: ende op het dack waren omtrent drye duysent mannen ende vrouwen, die toesagen als Simson speelde. Doe riep Simson tot den HEERE, ende seyde: Heere, HEERE, gedenckt doch mijner, ende sterckt my doch alleenlick ditmael, o Godt; Dat ick my met eene wrake voor mijne twee oogen aen de Philistijnen wreke. Ende Simson vattede de twee middelste pilaren, op dewelcke het huys was gevesticht, ende waerop het steunde; den eenen met sijne rechterhant, ende den anderen met sijne slinckerhant. Ende Simson seyde; Mijne ziele sterve met de Philistijnen; ende hy booch sich met kracht, ende het huys viel op de Vorsten, ende op al het volck, dat daer in was: ende der dooden, die hy in sijn sterven gedoodt heeft, waren meer, als die hy in sijn leven gedoodt hadde. Judges 16:25-30 And it came to pass, when their hearts were merry, that they said, Call for Samson, that he may make us sport. And they called for Samson out of the prison house; and he made them sport: and they set him between the pillars. And Samson said unto the lad that held him by the hand, Suffer me that I may feel the pillars whereupon the house standeth, that I may lean upon them. Now the house was full of men and women; and all the lords of the Philistines were there; and there were upon the roof about three thousand men and women, that beheld while Samson made sport. And Samson called unto the LORD, and said, O Lord GOD, remember me, I pray thee, and strengthen me, I pray thee, only this once, O God, that I may be at once avenged of the Philistines for my two eyes. And Samson took hold of the two middle pillars upon which the house stood, and on which it was borne up, of the one with his right hand, and of the other with his left. And Samson said, Let me die with the Philistines. And he bowed himself with all his might; and the house fell upon the lords, and upon all the people that were therein. So the dead which he slew at his death were more than they which he slew in his life.

Gate to the Simson-Haus. Richteren 14:5-9 Also ginck Simson met sijnen vader ende sijne moeder henen af, nae Thimnath: als sy nu quamen tot aen de wijngaerden van Thimnath; siet daer, een jonge leeuw, brullende hem te gemoete. Doe wert de Geest des HEEREN veerdich over hem, dat hy hem van een scheurde, gelijckmen een bocxken van een scheurt, ende daer en was niets in sijne hant: doch hy en gaf sijnen vader ende sijner moeder niet te kennen, wat hy gedaen hadde. Ende hy quam af, ende sprack tot de vrouwe: ende sy beviel in Simsons oogen. Ende na sommige dagen quam hy weder om haer te nemen; Doe weeck hy af, om het aes des leeuwen te besien: ende siet, een bijenswerm was in het lichaem des leeuwen, met honich. Ende hy nam dien in sijne handen, ende ginck voort, al gaende ende etende; ende hy ginck tot sijnen vader ende tot sijne moeder, ende gaf hen [daer van], ende sy aten: doch hy en gaf hen niet te kennen, dat hy den honich uyt het lichaem des leeuwen genomen hadde. Judges 14:5-9 Then went Samson down, and his father and his mother, to Timnath, and came to the vineyards of Timnath: and, behold, a young lion roared against him. And the Spirit of the LORD came mightily upon him, and he rent him as he would have rent a kid, and he had nothing in his hand: but he told not his father or his mother what he had done. And he went down, and talked with the woman; and she pleased Samson well. And after a time he returned to take her, and he turned aside to see the carcase of the lion: and, behold, there was a swarm of bees and honey in the carcase of the lion. And he took thereof in his hands, and went on eating, and came to his father and mother, and he gave them, and they did eat: but he told not them that he had taken the honey out of the carcase of the lion.

Richteren 15:10-17 10: Ende de mannen van Iuda seyden: Waerom zijt ghylieden tegen ons opgetogen? ende sy seyden: Wy zijn opgetogen om Simson te binden, om hem te doen, gelijck als hy ons gedaen heeft. 11 Doe quamen drie duysent mannen af uyt Iuda tot het hol der rotze Etams, ende seyden tot Simson; En wistet ghy niet, dat de Philistijnen over ons heerschen? waerom hebt ghy ons dan dit gedaen? ende hy seyde tot hen: Gelijck als sy my gedaen hebben, alsoo heb ick haerlieden gedaen. 12 Ende sy seyden tot hem; Wy zijn afgekomen om u te binden, om u over te geven in de hant der Philistijnen: doe seyde Simson tot hen; Sweert my, dat ghylieden op my niet en sult aenvallen. 13 Ende sy spraken tot hem, seggende; Neen, maer wy sullen u wel binden, ende u in haer lieder hant overgeven, doch wy en sullen u geensins dooden: ende sy bonden hem met twee nieuwe touwen, ende voerden hem op van de rotze. 14 Als hy quam tot Lechi, so juychten de Philistijnen hem te gemoete: maer de Geest des HEEREN wert veerdich over hem, ende de touwen, die aen sijne armen waren, werden als lijnen draden, die van den vyere gebrant zijn, ende sijne banden versmolten van sijne handen. 15 Ende hy vondt een vochtich ezels kinnebacken: ende hy streckte sijne hant uyt, ende nam het, ende sloech daer mede duysent man. 16 Doe seyde Simson; Met een esels kinnebacken, eenen hoop, twee hoopen, met een esels-kinnebacken heb ick duysent man geslagen. 17 Ende het geschiedde, als hy ge-eyndight hadde te spreken, so wierp hy het kinnebacken uyt sijne hant, ende hy noemde de selve plaetse Ramath-Lechi. Judges 15:10-17 10: And the men of Judah said, Why are ye come up against us? And they answered, To bind Samson are we come up, to do to him as he hath done to us. 11: Then three thousand men of Judah went to the top of the rock Etam, and said to Samson, Knowest thou not that the Philistines are rulers over us? what is this that thou hast done unto us? And he said unto them, As they did unto me, so have I done unto them. 12: And they said unto him, We are come down to bind thee, that we may deliver thee into the hand of the Philistines. And Samson said unto them, Swear unto me, that ye will not fall upon me yourselves. 13: And they spake unto him, saying, No; but we will bind thee fast, and deliver thee into their hand: but surely we will not kill thee. And they bound him with two new cords, and brought him up from the rock. 14: And when he came unto Lehi, the Philistines shouted against him: and the Spirit of the LORD came mightily upon him, and the cords that were upon his arms became as flax that was burnt with fire, and his bands loosed from off his hands. 15: And he found a new jawbone of an ass, and put forth his hand, and took it, and slew a thousand men therewith. 16: And Samson said, With the jawbone of an ass, heaps upon heaps, with the jaw of an ass have I slain a thousand men. 17: And it came to pass, when he had made an end of speaking, that he cast away the jawbone out of his hand, and called that place Ramath-lehi.
