And Samson H8123 said H559 (8799) unto the lad H5288 that held H2388 (8688) him by the hand H3027, Suffer H3240 (8685) me that I may feel H4184 (8685) (8675) H3237 (8685) the pillars H5982 whereupon the house H1004 standeth H3559 (8737), that I may lean H8172 (8735) upon them.

Now the house was full of men and women; and all the lords of the Philistines were there; and there were on the roof about three thousand men and women, who saw while Samson performed.

Now the house H1004 was full H4390 (8804) of men H582 and women H802; and all the lords H5633 of the Philistines H6430 [were] there; and [there were] upon the roof H1406 about three H7969 thousand H505 men H376 and women H802, that beheld H7200 (8802) while Samson H8123 made sport H7832 (8800).

Judges 16:30 (100.00%)

Samson said, “Let me die with the Philistines!” He bowed himself with all his might; and the house fell on the lords, and on all the people who were in it. So the dead that he killed at his death were more than those who he killed in his life.

And Samson H8123 said H559 (8799), Let me die H4191 (8799) H5315 with the Philistines H6430. And he bowed H5186 (8799) himself with [all his] might H3581; and the house H1004 fell H5307 (8799) upon the lords H5633, and upon all the people H5971 that [were] therein. So the dead H4191 (8801) which he slew H4191 (8689) at his death H4194 were more H7227 than [they] which he slew H4191 (8689) in his life H2416.

and Samson saith, ‘Let me die with the Philistines,’ and he inclineth himself powerfully, and the house falleth on the princes, and on all the people who are in it, and the dead whom he hath put to death in his death are more than those whom he put to death in his life.
