Judges 16:8-10

Common English Bible

⁸ So the rulers of the Philistines brought her seven fresh bowstrings that weren’t dried out, and she tied him up with them.

⁹ While an ambush was waiting for her signal in an inner room, she called out to him, “Samson, the Philistines are on you!” And he snapped the bowstrings like a thread of fiber snaps when it touches a flame. So the secret of his strength remained unknown.

¹⁰ Then Delilah said to Samson, “You made a fool out of me and lied to me. Now please tell me how you can really be tied up!”
