Vers. 9. Then the Philistines went up, and pitched in Judah, and spread themselves in Lehi. 10 And the men of Judah said, Why are ye come up against us? and they answered, To bind Samson are we come up, and to do to him, as he hath done to us. 11 Then three thousand men of Judah went to the top of the rock Etam, and said to Samson; Knowest thou not that the Philistines are rulers over us? what is this that thou hast done to us? And he said unto them, As they did unto me, so have I done unto them. 12 And they said unto him, We are come down to bind thee, that we may deliver thee into the hand of the Philistines. And Samson said unto them; Swear unto me that ye will not fall upon me your selves. 13 And they spake unto him, saying; No; but we will bind thee fast, and deliver thee into their hand: but surely we will not kill thee. And they bound him with two new cords, and brought him from the rock. 14 And when he came to Lehi, the Philistines shouted at the meeting of him.
