And he awaked{H3364}{(H8799)} out of his sleep{H8142}, and went away{H5265}{(H8799)} with the pin{H3489} of the beam{H708}, and with the web{H4545}. 15 And she said{H559}{(H8799)} unto him, How{H349} canst thou say{H559}{(H8799)}, I love{H157}{(H8804)} thee, when thine heart{H3820} is not with me? thou hast mocked{H2048}{(H8765)} me these three{H7969} times{H6471}, and hast not told{H5046}{(H8689)} me wherein thy great{H1419} strength{H3581} lieth. 16 And it came to pass, when she pressed{H6693}{(H8689)} him daily{H3117} with her words{H1697}, and urged{H509}{(H8762)} him, so that his soul{H5315} was vexed{H7114}{(H8799)} unto death{H4191}{(H8800)}; 17 That he told{H5046}{(H8686)} her all his heart{H3820}, and said{H559}{(H8799)} unto her, There hath not come{H5927}{(H8804)} a razor{H4177} upon mine head{H7218}; for I have been a Nazarite{H5139} unto God{H430} from my mother's{H517} womb{H990}: if I be shaven{H1548}{(H8795)}, then my strength{H3581} will go{H5493}{(H8804)} from me, and I shall become weak{H2470}{(H8804)}, and be like any other man{H120}. 18 And when Delilah{H1807} saw{H7200}{(H8799)} that he had told{H5046}{(H8689)} her all his heart{H3820}, she sent{H7971}{(H8799)} and called{H7121}{(H8799)} for the lords{H5633} of the Philistines{H6430}, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, Come up{H5927}{(H8798)} this once{H6471}, for he hath shewed{H5046}{(H8689)} me all his heart{H3820}. Then the lords{H5633} of the Philistines{H6430} came up{H5927}{(H8804)} unto her, and brought{H5927}{(H8686)} money{H3701} in their hand{H3027}. 19 And she made him sleep{H3462}{(H8762)} upon her knees{H1290}; and she called{H7121}{(H8799)} for a man{H376}, and she caused him to shave off{H1548}{(H8762)} the seven{H7651} locks{H4253} of his head{H7218}; and she began{H2490}{(H8686)} to afflict{H6031}{(H8763)} him, and his strength{H3581} went{H5493}{(H8799)} from him. 20 And she said{H559}{(H8799)}, The Philistines{H6430} be upon thee, Samson{H8123}. And he awoke{H3364}{(H8799)} out of his sleep{H8142}, and said{H559}{(H8799)}, I will go out{H3318}{(H8799)} as at other times before{H6471}, and shake{H5287}{(H8735)} myself. And he wist{H3045}{(H8804)} not that the LORD{H3068} was departed{H5493}{(H8804)} from him. 21 But the Philistines{H6430} took{H270}{(H8799)} him, and put out{H5365}{(H8762)} his eyes{H5869}, and brought him down{H3381}{(H8686)} to Gaza{H5804}, and bound{H631}{(H8799)} him with fetters of brass{H5178}; and he did grind{H2912}{(H8802)} in the prison{H631}{(H8803)} house{H1004}. 22 Howbeit the hair{H8181} of his head{H7218} began{H2490}{(H8686)} to grow again{H6779}{(H8763)} after{H834} he was shaven{H1548}{(H8795)}.
