And when he had set the brands on fire, he let them go into the standing corn of the Philistines, and burnt up both the shocks, and also the standing corn, with the vineyards and olives.

Verse 5 is found in chapter 15 of Judges. Samson returns to visit his wife and discovers that she has been given to another man. In response, he captures three hundred foxes, ties them together, and sets their tails on fire, destroying Philistine crops. The action intensifies the conflict and shows how a personal offense against Samson produces collective consequences. The judge who should deliver Israel begins by acting from private revenge.

und zündete die Brände an mit Feuer und ließ sie unter das Korn der Philister und zündete also an die Garben samt dem stehenden Korn und Weinberge und Ölbäume.
Después, encendiendo las teas, echó las zorras en los sembrados de los Filisteos, y quemó hacinas y mieses, y viñas y olivares.
Prendió fuego a las antorchas y soltó las zorras en los sembrados de los filisteos. Quemó tanto las gavillas como el grano en pie, y hasta los olivares.
Il alluma les flambeaux, lâcha les renards dans les blés des Philistins, et embrasa les tas de gerbes, le blé sur pied, et jusqu'aux plantations d'oliviers.
Poi accese le fiaccole, e cacciò le volpi nelle biade de’ Filistei, ed arse le biade ch’erano in bica, e quelle ch’erano ancora in piè, e le vigne, e gli ulivi.
E chegou fogo às tochas, e largou-as na seara dos filisteus; e assim abrasou os molhos com a sega do trigo, e as vinhas e os olivais.
他點著火把,把狐狸放進 非利士 人直立的莊稼,把堆積的禾捆和直立的莊稼,葡萄園、橄欖園全都燒了。
