15 Then he found a fresh jawbone of a donkey, so he reached out with his hand and took it, and [a]killed (A)a thousand men with it. 16 And Samson said,

“With the jawbone of a donkey,
[b]Heaps upon heaps,
With the jawbone of a donkey
I have [c]killed a thousand men.”

17 When he had finished speaking, he threw the jawbone from his hand; and he named that place [d]Ramath-lehi.
