Context
24Watu walipomwona Samsoni wakamsifu mungu wao, wakisema:
“Sasa mungu wetu amemtia adui yetu
mikononi mwetu,
yule aliyeharibu nchi yetu
na kuwaua watu wengi miongoni mwetu.” 25Mioyo yao ilipokuwa imefurahishwa wakasema, “Mleteni Samsoni aje acheze ili tufurahi.” Basi wakamleta Samsoni kutoka mle gerezani naye akacheza mbele yao.
Wakamweka kati ya nguzo mbili. 26Samsoni akamwambia mtumishi aliyeshika mkono wake, “Niweke mahali ambapo ninaweza kuzigusa nguzo ambazo zinategemeza jengo ili nipate kuziegemea.” 27Basi lile jengo lilikuwa na wingi wa watu waume kwa wake; viongozi wote wa Wafilisti walikuwamo humo, na kwenye sakafu ya juu walikuwepo watu 3,000 waume kwa wake, waliokuwa wakimtazama Samsoni wakati anacheza. 28Ndipo Samsoni akamwomba Bwana, akasema, “Ee Bwana Mwenyezi, unikumbuke. Ee Mungu, nakusihi ukanitie nguvu mara hii moja tena, ili kwa tendo hili nipate kulipiza kisasi juu ya Wafilisti kwa ajili ya macho yangu mawili.”
