블레셋 사람의 방백들이 그 신 다곤에게 큰 제사를 드림

Judges 16:23–25: the lords of the Philistines gather together to offer a great sacrifice to Dagon their god, and to rejoice; for they say, “Our god has delivered Samson our enemy into our hand.” When the people see Samson, they praise their god; for they say, “Our god has delivered our enemy and the destroyer of our country, who has slain many of us, into our hand.” When their hearts are merry, they say, “Call for Samson, that he may entertain us.” They call for Samson out of the prison; and he performs before them. They set him between the pillars.
