I pray thee nowe, tell me wherewith thou mightest be bound. 11 Then he answered her, If they binde mee with newe ropes that neuer were occupied, then shal I be weake, and be as an other man. 12 Delilah therefore tooke newe ropes, and bounde him therewith, and saide vnto him, The Philistims be vpon thee, Samson: (and men lay in wayte in the chamber) and hee brake them from his armes, as a threede. 13 Afterward Delilah said to Samson, Hitherto thou hast beguiled mee, and tolde me lies: tell me how thou mightest be bounde.
