Samson Dies with the Philistines

23 Now the lords of the Philistines gathered together to offer a great sacrifice to aDagon their god, and to rejoice. And they said:
“Our god has delivered into our hands
Samson our enemy!”  
24 When the people saw him, they apraised their god; for they said:
“Our god has delivered into our hands our enemy,
The destroyer of our land,
And the one who multiplied our dead.”  
25 So it happened, when their hearts were amerry, that they said, “Call for Samson, that he may perform for us.” So they called for Samson from the prison, and he performed for them. And they stationed him between the pillars.  
26 Then Samson said to the lad who held him by the hand, “Let me feel the pillars which support the temple, so that I can lean on them.”
27 Now the temple was full of men and women. All the lords of the Philistines were there—about three thousand men and women on the aroof watching while Samson performed.  
28 Then Samson called to the Lord, saying, “O Lord God, aremember me, I pray! Strengthen me, I pray, just this once, O God, that I may with one blow take vengeance on the Philistines for my two eyes!”  
29 And Samson took hold of the two middle pillars which supported the temple, and he braced himself against them, one on his right and the other on his left.
