Judges 15:17-19
1599 Geneva Bible
17 And when he had left speaking, he cast away the jawbone out of his hand, and called that place, [a]Ramath Lehi.
18 And he was sore athirst, and [b]called on the Lord, and said, Thou hast given this great deliverance into the hand of thy servant: and now shall I die for thirst, and fall into the hand of the uncircumcised?
19 Then God brake the cheek tooth, that was in the jaw, and water came there out: and when he had drunk, his spirit came again, and he was revived: wherefore the name thereof is called, [c]En Hakkore, which is in Lehi unto this day.

18 Because he was very thirsty, he cried out to the Lord,(B) “You have given your servant this great victory.(C) Must I now die of thirst and fall into the hands of the uncircumcised?” 19 Then God opened up the hollow place in Lehi, and water came out of it. When Samson drank, his strength returned and he revived.(D) So the spring(E) was called En Hakkore,[b] and it is still there in Lehi.
