16 And Samson said,

‘With the jawbone of a donkey,
    heaps upon heaps,
with the jawbone of a donkey
    I have slain a thousand men.’

17 When he had finished speaking, he threw away the jawbone; and that place was called Ramath-lehi.[a]

18 By then he was very thirsty, and he called on the Lord, saying, ‘You have granted this great victory by the hand of your servant. Am I now to die of thirst, and fall into the hands of the uncircumcised?’
