Translation: Now when a certain man [named] Samson coming into the city of the tribe of Benjamin[1] saw his own wife seized by the tribesmen and dishonored by the multitude, he took away her dead body; and he personally cut her into pieces to display to the 12 tribes, to bear witness to the lawlessness of Benjamin. And they exacted [sc. punishment for] her straightaway: going up against the cities, they destroyed the tribe of Benjamin, consuming 80 and 7 thousands.
