Where Lehi appears in Scripture
וַיַּֽעֲלוּ פְלִשְׁתִּים וַֽיַּחֲנוּ בִּֽיהוּדָה וַיִּנָּֽטְשׁוּ בַּלֶּֽחִי׃
Then the Philistines went up, and pitched in Judah, and spread themselves in Lehi.
הוּא-בָא עַד-לֶחִי וּפְלִשְׁתִּים הֵרִיעוּ לִקְרָאתוֹ וַתִּצְלַח עָלָיו רוּחַ יְהוָה וַתִּֽהְיֶינָה הָֽעֲבֹתִים אֲשֶׁר עַל-זְרֽוֹעוֹתָיו כַּפִּשְׁתִּים אֲשֶׁר בָּֽעֲרוּ בָאֵשׁ וַיִּמַּסּוּ אֱסוּרָיו מֵעַל יָדָֽיו׃
And when he came unto Lehi, the Philistines shouted against him: and the Spirit of the LORD came mightily upon him, and the cords that were upon his arms became as flax that was burnt with fire, and his bands loosed from off his hands.
וַיִּבְקַע אֱלֹהִים אֶת-הַמַּכְתֵּשׁ אֲשֶׁר-בַּלֶּחִי וַיֵּֽצְאוּ מִמֶּנּוּ מַיִם וַיֵּשְׁתְּ וַתָּשָׁב רוּחוֹ וַיֶּחִי עַל-כֵּן׀ קָרָא שְׁמָהּ עֵין הַקּוֹרֵא אֲשֶׁר בַּלֶּחִי עַד הַיּוֹם הַזֶּֽה׃
But God clave an hollow place that was in the jaw, and there came water thereout; and when he had drunk, his spirit came again, and he revived: wherefore he called the name thereof En-hakkore, which is in Lehi unto this day.
