Judges 15:9-11

Living Bible

⁹ The Philistines in turn sent a huge posse into Judah and raided Lehi.

¹⁰ “Why have you come here?” the men of Judah asked.

And the Philistines replied, “To capture Samson and do to him as he has done to us.”

¹¹ So three thousand men of Judah went down to get Samson at the cave in the rock of Etam.

“What are you doing to us?” they demanded of him. “Don’t you realize that the Philistines are our rulers?”

But Samson replied, “I only paid them back for what they did to me.”
