As soon as he had finished speaking, he threw away the jawbone out of his hand. And that place was called Ramath-lehi.
And he found a fresh jawbone of a donkey, and put out his hand and took it, and with it he struck 1,000 men.
And Samson said, “With the jawbone of a donkey, heaps upon heaps, with the jawbone of a donkey have I struck down a thousand men.”
And he was very thirsty, and he called upon the Lord and said, “You have granted this great salvation by the hand of your servant, and shall I now die of thirst and fall into the hands of the uncircumcised?”
Then the Philistines came up and encamped in Judah and made a raid on Lehi.
