UDelila wayesethi: “AmaFilisti aphezu kwakho, Samsoni.” Lapho evuka ebuthongweni wathi: “Ngizophuma njengasesikhathini esedlule, ngizithintithe.” Wayengazi ukuthi uSimakade umshiyile.

USamsoni wanxusa uSimakade, wathi: “Nkosi Simakade, ngiyakucela, ngikhumbule, ngiqinise kube kanye, Nkulunkulu, ukuze ngiziphindisele kumaFilisti ngempindiselo eyodwa nje ngenxa yamehlo ami omabili.”

Ngakho-ke wayesemtshela yonke imfihlo yakhe, wathi kuye: “Ikhanda lami alikaze liphucwe ngensingo, ngokuba ngingumnaziri kaNkulunkulu kwasesibelethweni sikamame. Uma ngigundwa ayophela amandla ami, ngibe ntekenteke, ngifane nabo bonke abantu.”

Ekugcineni, emva kokumcindezela ngamazwi usuku nosuku, embelesele, waze wacikeka kakhulu uSamsoni.

USamsoni wathi: “Mangife namaFilisti.” Wazidudula ngamandla akhe wonke; indlu yawela phezu kwamakhosi, nabo bonke abantu ababekuyo. Ngakho-ke labo ababulala ngesikhathi sokufa kwakhe babebaningi kunalabo ababulala esaphila.
