Three thousand men of Judah bind Samson with two new ropes and bring him up from the rock

유다 사람 삼천명이 삼손을 새 줄 둘로 결박하여 바위 틈에서 끌어냄

Judges 15:9–13: then the Philistines go up, encamp in Judah, and spread themselves in Lehi. The men of Judah say, “Why have you come up against us?” They say, “We have come up to bind Samson, to do to him as he has done to us.” Then three thousand men of Judah go down to the cave in Etam’s rock, and say to Samson, “Don’t you know that the Philistines are rulers over us? What then is this that you have done to us?” Samson says to them, “As they did to me, so I have done to them.” They say to him, “We have come down to bind you, that we may deliver you into the hand of the Philistines.” Samson says to them, “Swear to me that you will not attack me yourselves.” They speak to him, saying, “No, but we will bind you securely and deliver you into their hands; but surely we will not kill you.” They bind him with two new ropes, and bring him up from the rock.
