Judges 16:4-6

GOD’S WORD Translation

Samson and Delilah

⁴ After ⌞leaving Gaza⌟, he fell in love with a woman in the Sorek Valley. Her name was Delilah. ⁵ The Philistine rulers came to her and said, “Trick him, and find out what makes him so strong. Find out how we can overpower him. We want to tie him up in order to torture him. Each of us will give you 1,100 pieces of silver.”

⁶ So Delilah said to Samson, “Please tell me what makes you so strong. How can you be tied up so that someone could torture you?”
