But|strong="H3808" her|strong="H5414" father would not|strong="H3808" suffer|strong="H5414" him|strong="H5414" to|strong="H1961" go|strong="H1961" in|strong="H3117".
2 And|strong="H2896" her|strong="H5414" father said, I|strong="H3588" verily|strong="H3808" thought that|strong="H3588" thou|strong="H5414" hadst utterly|strong="H8130" hated|strong="H8130" her|strong="H5414"; therefore|strong="H3588" I|strong="H3588" gave|strong="H5414" her|strong="H5414" to|strong="H1961" thy|strong="H5414" companion|strong="H4828": is|strong="H2896" not|strong="H3808" her|strong="H5414" younger|strong="H6996" sister fairer|strong="H2896" than|strong="H4480" she|strong="H3588"? take|strong="H1961" her|strong="H5414", I|strong="H3588" pray|strong="H4994" thee|strong="H5414", instead|strong="H8478" of|strong="H4480" her|strong="H5414".
3 And|strong="H6213" Samson|strong="H8123" said unto|strong="H6213" them|strong="H6213", This|strong="H6213" time|strong="H6471" shall|strong="H7451" I|strong="H3588" be|strong="H7451" blameless|strong="H5352" in|strong="H6213" regard|strong="H5973" of|strong="H6213" the|strong="H3588" Philistines|strong="H6430", when|strong="H3588" I|strong="H3588" do|strong="H6213" them|strong="H6213" a|strong="H3068" mischief|strong="H7451".
4 And|strong="H3967" Samson|strong="H8123" went|strong="H3212" and|strong="H3967" caught|strong="H3920" three|strong="H7969" hundred|strong="H3967" foxes|strong="H7776", and|strong="H3967" took|strong="H3947" firebrands|strong="H3940", and|strong="H3967" turned|strong="H6437" tail|strong="H2180" to|strong="H3212" tail|strong="H2180", and|strong="H3967" put|strong="H7760" a|strong="H3068" firebrand|strong="H3940" in|strong="H8432" the|strong="H3947" midst|strong="H8432" between|strong="H8432" every|strong="H3212" two|strong="H8147" tails|strong="H2180".

6 Then|strong="H3947" the|strong="H3588" Philistines|strong="H6430" said, Who|strong="H4310" hath|strong="H3588" done|strong="H6213" this|strong="H2063"? And|strong="H6213" they|strong="H3588" said, Samson|strong="H8123", the|strong="H3588" son in|strong="H6213" law|strong="H2860" of|strong="H6213" the|strong="H3588" Timnite|strong="H8554", because|strong="H3588" he|strong="H3588" hath|strong="H3588" taken|strong="H3947" his|strong="H5414" wife, and|strong="H6213" given|strong="H5414" her|strong="H5414" to|strong="H5927" his|strong="H5414" companion|strong="H4828". And|strong="H6213" the|strong="H3588" Philistines|strong="H6430" came|strong="H5927" up|strong="H5927", and|strong="H6213" burnt|strong="H8313" her|strong="H5414" and|strong="H6213" her|strong="H5414" father with|strong="H8313" fire.
7 And|strong="H6213" Samson|strong="H8123" said unto|strong="H6213" them|strong="H6213", If|strong="H3588" ye|strong="H6213" do|strong="H6213" after|strong="H3588" this|strong="H2063" manner, surely|strong="H3588" I|strong="H3588" will|strong="H6213" be|strong="H3588" avenged|strong="H5358" of|strong="H6213" you|strong="H3588", and|strong="H6213" after|strong="H3588" that|strong="H3588" I|strong="H3588" will|strong="H6213" cease|strong="H2308".
8 And|strong="H1419" he|strong="H5921" smote|strong="H5221" them|strong="H5921" hip|strong="H3409" and|strong="H1419" thigh|strong="H3409" with|strong="H5921" a|strong="H3068" great|strong="H1419" slaughter|strong="H4347": and|strong="H1419" he|strong="H5921" went|strong="H3381" down|strong="H3381" and|strong="H1419" dwelt|strong="H3427" in|strong="H3427" the|strong="H5921" cleft|strong="H5585" of|strong="H3427" the|strong="H5921" rock|strong="H5553" of|strong="H3427" Etam|strong="H5862".
9 Then|strong="H5927" the|strong="H5927" Philistines|strong="H6430" went|strong="H5927" up|strong="H5927", and|strong="H3063" pitched|strong="H2583" in|strong="H2583" Judah|strong="H3063", and|strong="H3063" spread|strong="H5203" themselves in|strong="H2583" Lehi|strong="H3896".
10 And|strong="H3063" the|strong="H5921" men|strong="H6213" of|strong="H5921" Judah|strong="H3063" said, Why|strong="H4100" are|strong="H4100" ye|strong="H6213" come|strong="H5927" up|strong="H5927" against|strong="H5921" us|strong="H5921"? And|strong="H3063" they|strong="H5921" said, To|strong="H5927" bind Samson|strong="H8123" are|strong="H4100" we|strong="H3068" come|strong="H5927" up|strong="H5927", to|strong="H5927" do|strong="H6213" to|strong="H5927" him|strong="H5921" as|strong="H6213" he|strong="H6213" hath|strong="H3063" done|strong="H6213" to|strong="H5927" us|strong="H5921".

And|strong="H3063" he|strong="H3588" said|strong="H3651" unto|strong="H6213" them|strong="H6213", As|strong="H6213" they|strong="H3588" did|strong="H6213" unto|strong="H6213" me|strong="H6213", so|strong="H3651" have|strong="H3045" I|strong="H3588" done|strong="H6213" unto|strong="H6213" them|strong="H6213".
12 And|strong="H3027" they|strong="H3027" said unto|strong="H5414" him|strong="H5414", We|strong="H6435" are|strong="H3027" come|strong="H3381" down|strong="H3381" to|strong="H3381" bind thee|strong="H5414", that|strong="H5414" we|strong="H3068" may|strong="H5414" deliver|strong="H5414" thee|strong="H5414" into|strong="H3381" the|strong="H5414" hand|strong="H3027" of|strong="H3027" the|strong="H5414" Philistines|strong="H6430". And|strong="H3027" Samson|strong="H8123" said unto|strong="H5414" them|strong="H5414", Swear|strong="H7650" unto|strong="H5414" me|strong="H5414", that|strong="H5414" ye|strong="H6435" will|strong="H3027" not|strong="H5414" fall|strong="H6293" upon|strong="H3027" me|strong="H5414" yourselves|strong="H3027".
13 And|strong="H3027" they|strong="H3588" spake unto|strong="H5414" him|strong="H5414", saying, No|strong="H3808"; but|strong="H3588" we|strong="H3068" will|strong="H3027" bind thee|strong="H5414" fast, and|strong="H3027" deliver|strong="H5414" thee|strong="H5414" into|strong="H5927" their|strong="H5414" hand|strong="H3027": but|strong="H3588" surely|strong="H4191" we|strong="H3068" will|strong="H3027" not|strong="H3808" kill|strong="H4191" thee|strong="H5414".
