And it cometh to pass ,
when their heart [

and they cause him to stand between the pillars .

because of my two eyes ,
on the Philistines .'

and all the house of his father ,
and lift him up ,
and bring him up ,
and bury him between Zorah and Eshtaol ,
in the burying-place of Manoah his father ;
and he hath judged Israel twenty years .
