Judges 15:17-19
Lexham English Bible
17 And it happened, when he finished speaking he threw the jawbone from his hand; and he called that place Ramath Lehi.[a]
18 And he was very thirsty, and he called to Yahweh and said, “You gave this great victory into the hand of your servant, but now I must die of thirst and fall into the hand of the uncircumcised?” 19 So God split the hollow place that is at Lehi, and water came out from it; and he drank, and his spirit returned, and he was revived. Thus he called its name The Spring of Ha-Qore,[b] which is at Lehi to 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.
