Somebeganto spitat Him, and to blindfoldHim, and to beat Him with their fists,and to sayto Him, "Prophesy!"And the officersreceivedHim with slaps[in the face].
Then the Philistinesseizedhim and gougedout his eyes;and they broughthim downto Gazaand boundhim with bronzechains,and he was a grinderin the prison.
