1 καὶ ἐπορεύθη Σαμψων ἐκεῖθεν εἰς Γάζαν καὶ εἶδεν ἐκεῖ γυναῖκα πόρνην καὶ εἰσῆλθεν πρὸς αὐτήν 2 καὶ ἀπηγγέλη τοῖς Γαζαίοις λέγοντες ἥκει Σαμψων ἐνταῦθα καὶ ἐκύκλωσαν καὶ ἐνήδρευσαν αὐτὸν ὅλην τὴν νύκτα ἐπὶ τῆς πύλης τῆς πόλεως καὶ ἐκώφευσαν ὅλην τὴν νύκτα λέγοντες ἕως φωτὸς πρωὶ μείνωμεν καὶ ἀποκτείνωμεν αὐτόν 3 καὶ ἐκοιμήθη Σαμψων ἕως τοῦ μεσονυκτίου καὶ ἀνέστη περὶ τὸ μεσονύκτιον καὶ ἐπελάβετο τῶν θυρῶν τῆς πύλης τῆς πόλεως καὶ τῶν δύο σταθμῶν καὶ ἀνεβάστασεν αὐτὰς σὺν τῷ μοχλῷ καὶ ἐπέθηκεν ἐπὶ τῷ ὤμῳ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀνήνεγκεν αὐτὰ ἐπὶ τὴν κορυφὴν τοῦ ὄρους ὅ ἐστιν ἐπὶ πρόσωπον Χεβρων καὶ ἔθηκεν αὐτὰ ἐκεῖ 1 At another time he went to Gaza, and would pass the night with a harlot he had seen there. 2 The news came to the ears of the Philistines that Samson was in the town, and they cut him off from escape by posting guards at the city gate; no need to do anything while night lasted, they could kill him next morning on his way out. 3 Samson slept on till midnight; then he rose up to go. Finding the gates locked, he took them up, bar, gate-posts and all, put them on his shoulder, and carried them to the top of the hill which looks down towards Hebron. 1 Abiit quoque in Gazam, et vidit ibi mulierem meretricem, ingressusque est ad eam. 2 Quod cum audissent Philisthiim, et percrebruisset apud eos intrasse urbem Samson, circumdederunt eum, positis in porta civitatis custodibus: et ibi tota nocte cum silentio præstolantes, ut facto mane exeuntem occiderent. 3 Dormivit autem Samson usque ad medium noctem: et inde consurgens, apprehendit ambas portæ fores cum postibus suis et sera, impositasque humeris suis portavit ad verticem montis, qui respicit Hebron.
4 καὶ ἐγένετο μετὰ ταῦτα καὶ ἠγάπησεν γυναῖκα ἐπὶ τοῦ χειμάρρου Σωρηχ καὶ ὄνομα αὐτῇ Δαλιλα 5 καὶ ἀνέβησαν πρὸς αὐτὴν οἱ σατράπαι τῶν ἀλλοφύλων καὶ εἶπαν αὐτῇ ἀπάτησον αὐτὸν καὶ ἰδὲ ἐν τίνι ἡ ἰσχὺς αὐτοῦ ἐστιν ἡ μεγάλη καὶ ἐν τίνι δυνησόμεθα πρὸς αὐτὸν καὶ δήσομεν αὐτὸν ὥστε ταπεινῶσαι αὐτόν καὶ ἡμεῖς δώσομέν σοι ἀνὴρ χιλίους καὶ ἑκατὸν ἀργυρίου 6 καὶ εἶπεν Δαλιλα πρὸς Σαμψων ἀνάγγειλόν μοι ἐν τίνι ἡ ἰσχύς σου ἡ μεγάλη καὶ ἐν τίνι δεθήσῃ τοῦ ταπεινωθῆναί σε 7 καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτὴν Σαμψων ἐὰν δήσωσίν με ἐν ἑπτὰ νευραῖς ὑγραῖς μὴ ἠρημωμέναις καὶ ἀσθενήσω καὶ ἔσομαι ὡς εἷς τῶν ἀνθρώπων 8 καὶ ἀνήνεγκαν αὐτῇ οἱ σατράπαι τῶν ἀλλοφύλων ἑπτὰ νευρὰς ὑγρὰς μὴ ἠρημωμένας καὶ ἔδησεν αὐτὸν ἐν αὐταῖς 9 καὶ τὸ ἔνεδρον αὐτοῦ ἐκάθητο ἐν τῷ ταμιείῳ καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτόν ἀλλόφυλοι ἐπὶ σέ Σαμψων καὶ διέρρηξεν τὰς νευράς ὃν τρόπον διασπᾶται κλῶσμα τοῦ ἀποτινάγματος ἐν τῷ ὀσφρανθῆναι πυρός καὶ οὐκ ἐγνώσθη ἡ ἰσχὺς αὐτοῦ 4 His next love was a woman called Dalila, who lived in the valley of Sorec. 5 To her the chiefs of the Philistines had recourse; Use all thy arts, they said, and find out from him what it is that makes him so strong; how we can get the better of him, make him a prisoner and have him at our mercy. Do this for us, and each of us will give thee eleven hundred pieces of silver. 6 So Dalila asked Samson, Tell me, what makes thee so strong? What bonds should a man use to bind thee, if he would have thee at his mercy? 7 Bind me with seven strands of gut, still fresh and undried, Samson told her, and I shall be no stronger than other men. 8 Such a cord the Philistine chiefs brought her, and she bound Samson with it; 9 meanwhile they lay concealed in her house, waiting in an inner room to see what came of it. Samson, she cried, the Philistines! Whereupon he broke through his bonds, as if they had been made of the refuse of tow, and scorched besides. And about that strength of his, none was the wiser. 4 Post hæc amavit mulierem, quæ habitabat in valle Sorec, et vocabatur Dalila. 5 Veneruntque ad eam principes Philisthinorum, atque dixerunt: Decipe eum, et disce ab illo, in quo habeat tantam fortitudinem, et quomodo eum superare valeamus, et vinctum affligere: quod si feceris, dabimus tibi singuli mille et centum argenteos. 6 Locuta est ergo Dalila ad Samson: Dic mihi, obsecro, in quo sit tua maxima fortitudo, et quid sit quo ligatus erumpere nequeas? 7 Cui respondit Samson: Si septem nerviceis funibus necdum siccis, et adhuc humentibus, ligatus fuero, infirmus ero ut ceteri homines. 8 Attuleruntque ad eam satrapæ Philisthinorum septem funes, ut dixerat: quibus vinxit eam, 9 latentibus apud se insidiis, et in cubiculo finem rei expectantibus: clamavitque ad eum: Philisthiim super te, Samson. Qui rupit vincula, quomodo si rumpat quis filum de stuppæ tortum putamine, cum odorem ignis acceperit: et non est cognitum in quo esset fortitudo ejus.
10 καὶ εἶπεν Δαλιλα πρὸς Σαμψων ἰδοὺ παρελογίσω με καὶ ἐλάλησας πρός με ψευδῆ νῦν οὖν ἀνάγγειλον δή μοι ἐν τίνι δεθήσῃ 11 καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτήν ἐὰν δεσμῷ δήσωσίν με ἐν ἑπτὰ καλωδίοις καινοῖς ἐν οἷς οὐκ ἐγενήθη ἔργον καὶ ἀσθενήσω καὶ ἔσομαι ὡς εἷς τῶν ἀνθρώπων 12 καὶ ἔλαβεν αὐτῷ Δαλιλα καλώδια καινὰ καὶ ἔδησεν αὐτὸν ἐν αὐτοῖς καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτόν οἱ ἀλλόφυλοι ἐπὶ σέ Σαμψων καὶ τὸ ἔνεδρον ἐκάθητο ἐν τῷ ταμιείῳ καὶ διέσπασεν αὐτὰ ἀπὸ τῶν βραχιόνων αὐτοῦ ὡς ῥάμμα 13 καὶ εἶπεν Δαλιλα πρὸς Σαμψων ἕως νῦν παρελογίσω με καὶ ἐλάλησας πρός με ψευδῆ ἀνάγγειλον δή μοι ἐν τίνι δεθήσῃ καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτήν ἐὰν ὑφάνῃς τὰς ἑπτὰ σειρὰς τῆς κεφαλῆς μου μετὰ τοῦ διάσματος καὶ ἐγκρούσῃς ἐν τῷ πασσάλῳ εἰς τὸν τοῖχον καὶ ἔσομαι ἀσθενὴς ὡς εἷς τῶν ἀνθρώπων 14 καὶ ἐκοίμισεν αὐτὸν Δαλιλα καὶ ἐδιάσατο τοὺς ἑπτὰ βοστρύχους τῆς κεφαλῆς αὐτοῦ μετὰ τῆς ἐκτάσεως καὶ κατέκρουσεν ἐν τοῖς πασσάλοις εἰς τὸν τοῖχον καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτόν οἱ ἀλλόφυλοι ἐπὶ σέ Σαμψων καὶ ἐξηγέρθη ἐκ τοῦ ὕπνου αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐξέσπασεν τοὺς πασσάλους σὺν τῷ ὑφάσματι ἐκ τοῦ τοίχου καὶ τὸ δίασμα καὶ οὐκ ἐγνώσθη ἡ ἰσχὺς αὐτοῦ 10 It was but a jest, then, said Dalila; thou wert tricking me? Tell me the truth this time; what bonds can bind thee? 11 New ropes, he answered, that have never yet been used; bind me with those, and never a man so weak as I. 12 So once more Dalila bound him, once more she cried, Samson, the Philistines! And the men hidden in the inner room saw him break his bonds like a thread. 13 What, cried Dalila, still mocking me, still at thy lying? Tell me what the right bonds are. Why, answered Samson, if thou shouldst weave seven of the hairs on my head into that web of thine, and tie them to the peg of the loom, and make it fast in the ground, then I should be weak enough. 14 This, too, Dalila did; but when she awoke him by crying Samson, the Philistines! he rose to his feet carrying away peg and web and all. 10 Dixitque ad eum Dalila: Ecce illusisti mihi, et falsum locutus es: saltem nunc indica mihi quo ligari debeas. 11 Cui ille respondit: Si ligatus fuero novis funibus, qui numquam fuerunt in opere, infirmus ero, et aliorum hominum similis. 12 Quibus rursum Dalila vinxit eum, et clamavit: Philisthiim super te, Samson: in cubiculo insidiis præparatis. Qui ita rupit vincula quasi fila telarum. 13 Dixitque Dalila rursum ad eum: Usquequo decipis me, et falsum loqueris? ostende quo vinciri debeas. Cui respondit Samson: Si septem crines capitis mei cum licio plexueris, et clavum his circumligatum terræ fixeris, infirmus ero. 14 Quod cum fecisset Dalila, dixit ad eum: Philisthiim super te, Samson. Qui consurgens de somno extraxit clavum cum crinibus et licio.
15 καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτὸν Δαλιλα πῶς ἐρεῖς ἠγάπηκά σε καὶ ἡ καρδία σου οὐκ ἔστιν με{T'} ἐμοῦ τοῦτο τρίτον παρελογίσω με καὶ οὐκ ἀπήγγειλάς μοι ἐν τίνι ἡ ἰσχύς σου ἡ μεγάλη 16 καὶ ἐγένετο ὅτε κατειργάσατο αὐτὸν τοῖς λόγοις αὐτῆς ὅλην τὴν νύκτα καὶ παρηνώχλησεν αὐτόν καὶ ὠλιγοψύχησεν ἕως εἰς θάνατον 17 καὶ ἀπήγγειλεν αὐτῇ πάντα τὰ ἀπὸ καρδίας αὐτοῦ καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῇ ξυρὸν οὐκ ἀναβήσεται ἐπὶ τὴν κεφαλήν μου ὅτι ναζιραῖος θεοῦ ἐγώ εἰμι ἐκ κοιλίας μητρός μου καὶ ἐὰν ξυρήσωμαι ἀποστήσεται ἀ{P'} ἐμοῦ ἡ ἰσχύς μου καὶ ἀσθενήσω καὶ ἔσομαι κατὰ πάντας τοὺς ἀνθρώπους 18 καὶ εἶδεν Δαλιλα ὅτι ἀνήγγειλεν αὐτῇ πάντα τὰ ἀπὸ καρδίας αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀπέστειλεν καὶ ἐκάλεσεν πάντας τοὺς σατράπας τῶν ἀλλοφύλων λέγουσα ἀνάβητε τὸ ἅπαξ ὅτι ἀνήγγειλέν μοι πᾶσαν τὴν καρδίαν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀνέβησαν πρὸς αὐτὴν πᾶσαι αἱ σατραπίαι τῶν ἀλλοφύλων καὶ ἤνεγκαν τὸ ἀργύριον ἐν ταῖς χερσὶν αὐτῶν 19 καὶ ἐκοίμισεν αὐτὸν ἀνὰ μέσον τῶν γονάτων αὐτῆς καὶ ἐκάλεσεν τὸν κουρέα καὶ ἐξύρησεν τοὺς ἑπτὰ βοστρύχους τῆς κεφαλῆς αὐτοῦ καὶ ἤρξατο ταπεινοῦσθαι καὶ ἀπέστη ἡ ἰσχὺς αὐτοῦ ἀ{P'} αὐτοῦ 20 καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Δαλιλα οἱ ἀλλόφυλοι ἐπὶ σέ Σαμψων καὶ ἐξηγέρθη ἐκ τοῦ ὕπνου αὐτοῦ καὶ εἶπεν ἐξελεύσομαι καὶ ποιήσω καθὼς ἀεὶ καὶ ἀποτινάξομαι καὶ αὐτὸς οὐκ ἔγνω ὅτι κύριος ἀπέστη ἀ{P'} αὐτοῦ 21 καὶ ἐπελάβοντο αὐτοῦ οἱ ἀλλόφυλοι καὶ ἐξώρυξαν τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτοῦ καὶ κατήγαγον αὐτὸν εἰς Γάζαν καὶ ἔδησαν αὐτὸν ἐν πέδαις χαλκαῖς καὶ ἦν ἀλήθων ἐν οἴκῳ τῆς φυλακῆς 15 Come, said Dalila, thou dost pretend to love me; wilt thou not let me share thy thoughts? Three times thou hast put me off with lies, instead of telling me the secret of thy great strength. 16 Thus did she torment him, plying him with questions day after day, and giving him no peace, till at last she crushed his spirit altogether, and made life a burden to him; 17 and at last he told her the truth. I am a Nazirite, he said; that is to say, I am consecrated to God from birth, and this hair of mine has never felt the touch of steel. If my hair were cut, my strength would leave me; I should lose it all, and become like other men. 18 She could tell, now, that he was keeping nothing back from her, and she sent a message to the Philistine chiefs, Come to my house this once more; he has told me everything. So they came, and brought with them the money they had promised her. 19 And now she made him lie down to sleep at her knees, with his head in her lap, and called her manservant in.[1] And she cut off the seven locks of Samson’s hair, resolved now to cast him off and spurn his love.[2] All at once his strength left him; 20 and when she awoke him with her cry, Samson, the Philistines! it was in vain that he sought to escape by shaking off his bonds as of old. 21 The Lord was at his side no longer, and the Philistines held him fast. First they blinded him, and then carried him off bound to Gaza, where they made him work as a prisoner at the mill. 15 Dixitque ad eum Dalila: Quomodo dicis quod amas me, cum animus tuus non sit mecum? Per tres vices mentitus es mihi, et noluisti dicere in quo sit maxima fortitudo tua. 16 Cumque molesta esset ei, et per multos dies jugiter adhæreret, spatium ad quietem non tribuens, defecit anima ejus, et ad mortem usque lassata est. 17 Tunc aperiens veritatem rei, dixit ad eam: Ferrum numquam ascendit super caput meum, quia nazaræus, id est, consecratus Deo, sum de utero matris meæ: si rasum fuerit caput meum, recedet a me fortitudo mea, et deficiam, eroque sicut ceteri homines. 18 Vidensque illa quod confessus ei esset omnem animum suum, misit ad principes Philisthinorum ac mandavit: Ascende adhuc semel, quia nunc mihi aperuit cor suum. Qui ascenderunt assumpta pecunia, quam promiserant. 19 At illa dormire eum fecit super genua sua, et in sinu suo reclinare caput. Vocavitque tonsorem, et rasit septem crines ejus, et cœpit abigere eum, et a se repellere: statim enim ab eo fortitudo discessit. 20 Dixitque: Philisthiim super te, Samson. Qui de somno consurgens, dixit in animo suo: Egrediar sicut ante feci, et me excutiam: nesciens quod recessisset ab eo Dominus. 21 Quem cum apprehendissent Philisthiim, statim eruerunt oculos ejus, et duxerunt Gazam vinctum catenis, et clausum in carcere molere fecerunt.
22 καὶ ἤρξατο ἡ θρὶξ τῆς κεφαλῆς αὐτοῦ ἀνατεῖλαι ἡνίκα ἐξυρήθη 23 καὶ οἱ σατράπαι τῶν ἀλλοφύλων συνήχθησαν τοῦ θῦσαι θυσίαν μεγάλην Δαγων τῷ θεῷ αὐτῶν καὶ τοῦ εὐφρανθῆναι καὶ εἶπαν παρέδωκεν ὁ θεὸς ἡμῶν ἐν χειρὶ ἡμῶν Σαμψων τὸν ἐχθρὸν ἡμῶν 24 καὶ εἶδεν αὐτὸν ὁ λαὸς καὶ ᾔνεσαν τοὺς θεοὺς αὐτῶν καὶ εἶπαν παρέδωκεν ὁ θεὸς ἡμῶν τὸν ἐχθρὸν ἡμῶν ἐν χειρὶ ἡμῶν καὶ τὸν ἐξερημοῦντα τὴν γῆν ἡμῶν ὅστις ἐπλήθυνεν τοὺς τραυματίας ἡμῶν 25 καὶ ἐγένετο ὅτε ἠγαθύνθη ἡ καρδία αὐτῶν καὶ εἶπαν καλέσατε τὸν Σαμψων ἐξ οἴκου φυλακῆς καὶ παιξάτω ἐνώπιον ἡμῶν καὶ ἐκάλεσαν τὸν Σαμψων ἐξ οἴκου τῆς φυλακῆς καὶ ἐνέπαιζον αὐτῷ καὶ ἔστησαν αὐτὸν ἀνὰ μέσον τῶν δύο στύλων 26 καὶ εἶπεν Σαμψων πρὸς τὸ παιδάριον τὸν χειραγωγοῦντα αὐτόν ἐπανάπαυσόν με δὴ καὶ ποίησον ψηλαφῆσαί με ἐπὶ τοὺς στύλους ἐ{F'} ὧν ὁ οἶκος ἐπεστήρικται ἐ{P'} αὐτῶν καὶ ἐπιστηρίσομαι ἐ{P'} αὐτούς ὁ δὲ παῖς ἐποίησεν οὕτως 22 But now the hair began to grow again on the shorn head. 23 After a while, the chiefs of the Philistines met to offer their god Dagon high sacrifice, and to hold a banquet. What an enemy, they said, was this Samson! And our god has given us the mastery of him. 24 Thereupon the common folk took up the same cry of praise; Our god has given us the mastery, they said, over this enemy of ours, that so ruined our lands, that slew so many. 25 And in their mirth, as they drank together after the banquet was eaten, they had Samson brought in to provide sport for them. Provide sport for them he did, set free for a while from his prison, standing between two pillars, where they had made place for him. 26 Then he said to the boy who was leading him about, Now guide my hands to the two pillars that support the building; I would lean my weight on them and rest a little. 22 Jamque capilli ejus renasci cœperunt. 23 Et principes Philisthinorum convenerunt in unum ut immolarent hostias magnificas Dagon deo suo, et epularentur, dicentes: Tradidit deus noster inimicum nostrum Samson in manus nostras. 24 Quod etiam populus videns, laudabat deum suum, eademque dicebat: Tradidit deus noster adversarium nostrum in manus nostras, qui delevit terram nostram, et occidit plurimos. 25 Lætantesque per convivia, sumptis jam epulis, præceperunt ut vocaretur Samson, et ante eos luderet. Qui adductus de carcere ludebat ante eos, feceruntque eum stare inter duas columnas. 26 Qui dixit puero regenti gressus suos: Dimitte me, ut tangam columnas, quibus omnis imminet domus, et recliner super eas, et paululum requiescam.
27 ὁ δὲ οἶκος ἦν πλήρης ἀνδρῶν καὶ γυναικῶν καὶ ἐκεῖ πάντες οἱ σατράπαι τῶν ἀλλοφύλων καὶ ἐπὶ τοῦ δώματος ὡσεὶ τρισχίλιοι ἄνδρες καὶ γυναῖκες ἐμβλέποντες ἐμπαιζόμενον τὸν Σαμψων 28 καὶ ἐβόησεν Σαμψων πρὸς κύριον καὶ εἶπεν κύριε κύριε μνήσθητί μου καὶ ἐνίσχυσόν με δὴ πλὴν ἔτι τὸ ἅπαξ τοῦτο καὶ ἐκδικήσω ἐκδίκησιν μίαν ἀντὶ τῶν δύο ὀφθαλμῶν μου ἐκ τῶν ἀλλοφύλων 29 καὶ περιέλαβεν Σαμψων τοὺς δύο στύλους τοὺς μέσους ἐ{F'} ὧν ὁ οἶκος ἐπεστήρικτο ἐ{P'} αὐτῶν καὶ ἐπεστηρίσατο ἐ{P'} αὐτοῖς ἕνα ἐν τῇ δεξιᾷ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἕνα ἐν τῇ ἀριστερᾷ αὐτοῦ 30 καὶ εἶπεν Σαμψων ἀποθανέτω ἡ ψυχή μου μετὰ τῶν ἀλλοφύλων καὶ ἔκλινεν ἐν ἰσχύι καὶ ἔπεσεν ὁ οἶκος ἐπὶ τοὺς σατράπας καὶ ἐπὶ πάντα τὸν λαὸν τὸν ἐν αὐτῷ καὶ ἐγένοντο οἱ τεθνηκότες οὓς ἐθανάτωσεν Σαμψων ἐν τῷ θανάτῳ αὐτοῦ πλείους ὑπὲρ οὓς ἐθανάτωσεν ἐν τῇ ζωῇ αὐτοῦ 27 The building was thronged with men and women both; all the chiefs of the Philistines were there, and from the roof, with its balcony, some three thousand men and women looked on while Samson provided them with sport. 28 And now he called the Lord to his aid; Lord God, he said, bethink thyself of me, and give me back, for this once, the strength I had of old. One stroke of vengeance, my God, on the enemies who have robbed me of both my eyes! 29 And with that, he caught the two pillars the building rested on, one in his right hand and one in his left, 30 crying out, Now, Samson, die with the Philistines! And he shook the pillars with such force that the whole building fell and crushed the chiefs of the Philistines, crushed all the throng that was there about him. Great toll Samson took of them in his life-time, but greater as he died. 27 Domus autem erat plena virorum ac mulierum, et erant ibi omnes principes Philisthinorum, ac de tecto et solario circiter tria millia utriusque sexus spectantes ludentem Samson. 28 At ille invocato Domino ait: Domine Deus, memento mei, et redde mihi nunc fortitudinem pristinam, Deus meus, ut ulciscar me de hostibus meis, et pro amissione duorum luminum unam ultionem recipiam. 29 Et apprehendens ambas columnas quibus innitebatur domus, alteramque earum dextera et alteram læva tenens, 30 ait: Moriatur anima mea cum Philisthiim. Concussisque fortiter columnis, cecidit domus super omnes principes, et ceteram multitudinem quæ ibi erat: multoque plures interfecit moriens, quam ante vivus occiderat.
31 καὶ κατέβησαν οἱ ἀδελφοὶ αὐτοῦ καὶ πᾶς ὁ οἶκος τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ καὶ ἔλαβον αὐτὸν καὶ ἀνέβησαν καὶ ἔθαψαν αὐτὸν ἀνὰ μέσον Σαραα καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον Εσθαολ ἐν τῷ τάφῳ Μανωε τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ καὶ αὐτὸς ἔκρινεν τὸν Ισραηλ εἴκοσι ἔτη 31 And all his brethren and kindred went down to carry off his body, which they buried in the tomb of his father Manue, between Saraa and Esthaol. His rule over Israel had lasted twenty years. 31 Descendentes autem fratres ejus et universa cognatio, tulerunt corpus ejus, et sepelierunt inter Saraa et Esthaol in sepulchro patris sui Manue: judicavitque Israël viginti annis.
