Judges 15:19-20
New English Translation

19 So God split open the basin[a] at Lehi and water flowed out from it. When he took a drink, his strength[b] was restored and he revived. For this reason he named the spring[c] En Hakkore.[d] It remains in Lehi to this very day. 20 Samson led[e] Israel for twenty years during the days of Philistine prominence.[f]
