← Judges 15:5	Judges 15:6 (KJV)	Judges 15:7 →
And when he had set the brands on fire, he let [them] go into the standing corn of the Philistines, and burnt up both the shocks, and also the standing corn, with the vineyards [and] olives.	Then the Philistines said, Who hath done this? And they answered, Samson, the son in law of the Timnite, because he had taken his wife, and given her to his companion. And the Philistines came up, and burnt her and her father with fire.	And Samson said unto them, Though ye have done this, yet will I be avenged of you, and after that I will cease.
