Hakim-hakim 15:19

15:19 So God split open the basin ⁴  at Lehi and water flowed out from it. When he took a drink, his strength ⁵  was restored and he revived. For this reason he named the spring ⁶  En Hakkore. ⁷  It remains in Lehi to this very day.

[7:2]  ¹ tn Heb “the people who are with you are too numerous for me to give Midian into their hand.”

[7:2]  ² tn Heb “might glorify itself against me.”

[7:2]  ³ tn Heb “my hand has delivered me.”

[15:19]  ⁴ tn The word translated “basin” refers to a circular-shaped depression in the land’s surface.

[15:19]  ⁵ tn Heb “spirit.”

[15:19]  ⁶ tn Heb “named it”; the referent (the spring) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[15:19]  ⁷ sn The name En Hakkore means “Spring of the one who cries out.”
