6. Then the Philistines said, Who hath done this? And they said, Samson, the son in law of the Timnite, because he hath taken his wife, and given her to his companion. And the Philistines came up, and burnt her and her father with fire.
7. And Samson said unto them, If ye do after this manner, surely I will be avenged of you, and after that I will cease.
8. And he smote them hip and thigh with a great slaughter: and he went down and dwelt in the cleft of the rock of Etam.
9. Then the Philistines went up, and pitched in Judah, and spread themselves in Lehi.
