Judges 16:31

---

← Judges 16:30	Judges 16:31 (KJV)	Judges 17:1 →
And Samson said, Let me die with the Philistines. And he bowed himself with [all his] might; and the house fell upon the lords, and upon all the people that [were] therein. So the dead which he slew at his death were more than [they] which he slew in his life.	Then his brethren and all the house of his father came down, and took him, and brought [him] up, and buried him between Zorah and Eshtaol in the buryingplace of Manoah his father. And he judged Israel twenty years.	And there was a man of mount Ephraim, whose name [was] Micah.
