When he finished speaking, he threw the jawbone away and called that place Ramath Lehi.
Then he found a fresh jawbone of a donkey, reached out his hand and took it, and with it struck down a thousand men.
Samson said, “With a jawbone of a donkey, heaps upon heaps. With a jawbone of a donkey I have slain a thousand men.”
He was very thirsty, and he called out to the Lord, “You gave this great deliverance through Your servant, but now may I die of thirst and fall into the hands of the uncircumcised?”
Then the Philistines went up and set up camp in Judah. They deployed against Lehi.
