Then wentH3212 SamsonH8123 to GazaH5804, and sawH7200 there an harlotH802+H2181, and went inH935 unto her. {harlot: Heb. a woman an harlot}
And it was told the GazitesH5841, sayingH559, SamsonH8123 is comeH935 hither. And they compassed him inH5437, and laid waitH693 for him all nightH3915 in the gateH8179 of the cityH5892, and were quietH2790 all the nightH3915, sayingH559, In the morningH1242, when it is dayH216, we shall killH2026 him. {quiet: Heb. silent}
And SamsonH8123 layH7901 till midnightH2677+H3915, and aroseH6965 at midnightH2677+H3915, and tookH270 the doorsH1817 of the gateH8179 of the cityH5892, and the twoH8147 postsH4201, and went awayH5265 with them, barH1280 and all, and putH7760 them upon his shouldersH3802, and carried them upH5927 to the topH7218 of an hillH2022 that is beforeH6440 HebronH2275. {bar…: Heb. with the bar}
And it came to pass afterwardH310, that he lovedH157 a womanH802 in the valleyH5158 of SorekH7796, whose nameH8034 was DelilahH1807. {in…: or, by the brook}
And the lordsH5633 of the PhilistinesH6430 came upH5927 unto her, and saidH559 unto her, EnticeH6601 him, and seeH7200 wherein his greatH1419 strengthH3581 lieth, and by what means we may prevailH3201 against him, that we may bindH631 him to afflictH6031 him: and we will giveH5414 thee every oneH376 of us eleven hundredH505+H3967 pieces of silverH3701. {afflict: or, humble}
And DelilahH1807 saidH559 to SamsonH8123, TellH5046 me, I pray thee, wherein thy greatH1419 strengthH3581 lieth, and wherewith thou mightest be boundH631 to afflictH6031 thee.
And SamsonH8123 saidH559 unto her, If they bindH631 me with sevenH7651 greenH3892 withsH3499 that were never driedH2717, then shall I be weakH2470, and be as anotherH259 manH120. {green…: or, new cords: Heb. moist} {another: Heb. one}
Then the lordsH5633 of the PhilistinesH6430 brought upH5927 to her sevenH7651 greenH3892 withsH3499 which had not been driedH2717, and she boundH631 him with them. {green…: or, new cords: Heb. moist}
Now there were men lying in waitH693, abidingH3427 with her in the chamberH2315. And she saidH559 unto him, The PhilistinesH6430 be upon thee, SamsonH8123. And he brakeH5423 the withsH3499, as a threadH6616 of towH5296 is brokenH5423 when it touchethH7306 the fireH784. So his strengthH3581 was not knownH3045. {toucheth: Heb. smelleth}
And DelilahH1807 saidH559 unto SamsonH8123, Behold, thou hast mockedH2048 me, and toldH1696 me liesH3577: now tellH5046 me, I pray thee, wherewith thou mightest be boundH631.
And he saidH559 unto her, If they bindH631 me fastH631 with newH2319 ropesH5688 that never were occupiedH4399+H6213, then shall I be weakH2470, and be as anotherH259 manH120. {that never…: Heb. wherewith work hath not been done}
DelilahH1807 therefore tookH3947 newH2319 ropesH5688, and boundH631 him therewith, and saidH559 unto him, The PhilistinesH6430 be upon thee, SamsonH8123. And there were liers in waitH693 abidingH3427 in the chamberH2315. And he brakeH5423 them from off his armsH2220 like a threadH2339.
And DelilahH1807 saidH559 unto SamsonH8123, HithertoH2008 thou hast mockedH2048 me, and toldH1696 me liesH3577: tellH5046 me wherewith thou mightest be boundH631. And he saidH559 unto her, If thou weavestH707 the sevenH7651 locksH4253 of my headH7218 with the webH4545.
And she fastenedH8628 it with the pinH3489, and saidH559 unto him, The PhilistinesH6430 be upon thee, SamsonH8123. And he awakedH3364 out of his sleepH8142, and went awayH5265 with the pinH3489 of the beamH708, and with the webH4545.
And she saidH559 unto him, HowH349 canst thou sayH559, I loveH157 thee, when thine heartH3820 is not with me? thou hast mockedH2048 me these threeH7969 timesH6471, and hast not toldH5046 me wherein thy greatH1419 strengthH3581 lieth.
And it came to pass, when she pressedH6693 him dailyH3117 with her wordsH1697, and urgedH509 him, so that his soulH5315 was vexedH7114 unto deathH4191; {vexed: Heb. shortened}
That he toldH5046 her all his heartH3820, and saidH559 unto her, There hath not comeH5927 a razorH4177 upon mine headH7218; for I have been a NazariteH5139 unto GodH430 from my mother'sH517 wombH990: if I be shavenH1548, then my strengthH3581 will goH5493 from me, and I shall become weakH2470, and be like any other manH120.
And when DelilahH1807 sawH7200 that he had toldH5046 her all his heartH3820, she sentH7971 and calledH7121 for the lordsH5633 of the PhilistinesH6430, sayingH559, Come upH5927 this onceH6471, for he hath shewedH5046 me all his heartH3820. Then the lordsH5633 of the PhilistinesH6430 came upH5927 unto her, and broughtH5927 moneyH3701 in their handH3027.
And she made him sleepH3462 upon her kneesH1290; and she calledH7121 for a manH376, and she caused him to shave offH1548 the sevenH7651 locksH4253 of his headH7218; and she beganH2490 to afflictH6031 him, and his strengthH3581 wentH5493 from him.
And she saidH559, The PhilistinesH6430 be upon thee, SamsonH8123. And he awokeH3364 out of his sleepH8142, and saidH559, I will go outH3318 as at other times beforeH6471, and shakeH5287 myself. And he wistH3045 not that the LORDH3068 was departedH5493 from him.
But the PhilistinesH6430 tookH270 him, and put outH5365 his eyesH5869, and brought him downH3381 to GazaH5804, and boundH631 him with fetters of brassH5178; and he did grindH2912 in the prisonH631 houseH1004. {put out: Heb. bored out}
Howbeit the hairH8181 of his headH7218 beganH2490 to grow againH6779 afterH834 he was shavenH1548. {after…: or, as when he was shaven}
Then the lordsH5633 of the PhilistinesH6430 gathered them togetherH622 for to offerH2076 a greatH1419 sacrificeH2077 unto DagonH1712 their godH430, and to rejoiceH8057: for they saidH559, Our godH430 hath deliveredH5414 SamsonH8123 our enemyH341 into our handH3027.
And when the peopleH5971 sawH7200 him, they praisedH1984 their godH430: for they saidH559, Our godH430 hath deliveredH5414 into our handsH3027 our enemyH341, and the destroyerH2717 of our countryH776, which slewH2491 manyH7235 of us. {which…: Heb. and who multiplied our slain}
And it came to pass, when their heartsH3820 were merryH2896, that they saidH559, CallH7121 for SamsonH8123, that he may make us sportH7832. And they calledH7121 for SamsonH8123 out of the prisonH631 houseH1004; and he made themH6440 sportH6711: and they setH5975 him between the pillarsH5982. {them: Heb. before them}
And SamsonH8123 saidH559 unto the ladH5288 that heldH2388 him by the handH3027, SufferH3240 me that I may feelH4184+H3237 the pillarsH5982 whereupon the houseH1004 standethH3559, that I may leanH8172 upon them.
Now the houseH1004 was fullH4390 of menH582 and womenH802; and all the lordsH5633 of the PhilistinesH6430 were there; and there were upon the roofH1406 about threeH7969 thousandH505 menH376 and womenH802, that beheldH7200 while SamsonH8123 made sportH7832.
And SamsonH8123 calledH7121 unto the LORDH3068, and saidH559, O LordH136 GODH3069, rememberH2142 me, I pray thee, and strengthenH2388 me, I pray thee, only this onceH6471, O GodH430, that I may be at onceH259 avengedH5358+H5359 of the PhilistinesH6430 for my twoH8147 eyesH5869.
And SamsonH8123 took holdH3943 of the twoH8147 middleH8432 pillarsH5982 upon which the houseH1004 stoodH3559, and on which it was borne upH5564, of the oneH259 with his right handH3225, and of the otherH259 with his leftH8040. {on which…: or, he leaned on them}
And SamsonH8123 saidH559, Let me dieH4191+H5315 with the PhilistinesH6430. And he bowedH5186 himself with all his mightH3581; and the houseH1004 fellH5307 upon the lordsH5633, and upon all the peopleH5971 that were therein. So the deadH4191 which he slewH4191 at his deathH4194 were moreH7227 than they which he slewH4191 in his lifeH2416. {me: Heb. my soul}
Then his brethrenH251 and all the houseH1004 of his fatherH1 came downH3381, and tookH5375 him, and brought him upH5927, and buriedH6912 him between ZorahH6881 and EshtaolH847 in the buryingplaceH6913 of ManoahH4495 his fatherH1. And he judgedH8199 IsraelH3478 twentyH6242 yearsH8141.

SaulH7586 also sentH7971 messengersH4397 unto David'sH1732 houseH1004, to watchH8104 him, and to slayH4191 him in the morningH1242: and MichalH4324 David'sH1732 wifeH802 toldH5046 him, sayingH559, If thou saveH4422 not thy lifeH5315 to nightH3915, to morrowH4279 thou shalt be slainH4191.
And he was soreH3966 athirstH6770, and calledH7121 on the LORDH3068, and saidH559, Thou hast givenH5414 this greatH1419 deliveranceH8668 into the handH3027 of thy servantH5650: and now shall I dieH4191 for thirstH6772, and fallH5307 into the handH3027 of the uncircumcisedH6189?
