And the Spirit of the LORD came upon him, and he went down to Ashkelon, and slew thirty men of them, and took their spoil, and gave change of garments unto them which expounded the riddle. And his anger was kindled, and he went up to his father's house.

Verse 19 is found in chapter 14 of Judges. Samson’s wife obtains the answer after crying and pressuring him. Samson provides the thirty garments promised after receiving the solution, but the Spirit of the Lord comes upon him and he kills thirty men of Ashkelon to pay the debt. He then abandons his wife. The scene shows the vengeful nature of the cycle beginning: a personal dispute progressively becomes hostility between Samson and the Philistines.

Und der Geist des HERRN geriet über ihn, und er ging hinab gen Askalon und schlug dreißig Mann unter ihnen und nahm ihr Gewand und gab Feierkleider denen, die das Rätsel erraten hatten. Und ergrimmte in seinem Zorn und ging herauf in seines Vaters Haus.
Y el espíritu de Jehová cayó sobre él, y descendió a Ascalón, e hirió treinta hombres de ellos; y tomando sus despojos, dio las mudas de vestidos a los que habían explicado el enigma: y encendido en enojo fuese a casa de su padre.
El Espíritu de Jehová vino con fuerza sobre él. Bajó a Ascalón, mató a treinta de sus hombres, tomó sus despojos y dio las mudas de ropa a quienes habían resuelto el acertijo. Se encendió su ira, y subió a la casa de su padre.
L'esprit de l'Eternel le saisit, et il descendit à Askalon. Il y tua trente hommes, prit leurs dépouilles, et donna les vêtements de rechange à ceux qui avaient expliqué l'énigme. Il était enflammé de colère, et il monta à la maison de son père.
E lo Spirito del Signore si avventò sopra lui, ed egli discese in Ascalon, e uccise trenta nomini di quella gente, e prese le loro spoglie, e diede quelle mute di vesti a quelli che aveano dichiarato l’enimma. Ed egli si accese nell’ira, e se ne ritornò alla casa di suo padre.
Então o Espírito do SENHOR tão poderosamente se apossou dele, que desceu aos ascalonitas, e matou deles trinta homens, e tomou as suas roupas, e deu as mudas de roupas aos que declararam o enigma; porém acendeu-se a sua ira, e subiu à casa de seu pai.
