Judges 15: Samson's Revenge and the Jawbone

Denied his wife, Samson burns the Philistine harvest with foxes and torches, and the Philistines retaliate by killing the woman and her father. Judah hands him over bound, but empowered by God's Spirit he kills a thousand with a jawbone; God answers his thirsty prayer with a spring, and he judges Israel twenty years.
