samson And the woman bare a son, and called his name

{Samson}: and the child grew, and the LORD blessed him.

samson And {Samson} went down to Timnath, and saw a
woman

in Timnath of the daughters of the Philistines.

samson Then his father and his mother said unto him,
[Is

there] never a woman among the daughters of thy brethren, or
among

all my people, that thou goest to take a wife of the
uncircumcised

Philistines? And {Samson} said unto his father, Get h

er for me; for she pleaseth me well.

samson Then went {Samson} down, and his father and his

mother, to Timnath, and came to the vineyards of Timnath: and,

behold, a young lion roared against him.

samson And he went down, and talked with the woman;
and

she pleased {Samson} well.

samson So his father went down unto the woman: and

{Samson} made there a feast; for so used the young men to do.

samson And {Samson} said unto them, I will now put
forth

a riddle unto you: if ye can certainly declare it me within the

seven days of the feast, and find [it] out, then I will give you

thirty sheets and thirty change of garments:

samson But it came to pass within a while after, in
the

time of wheat harvest, that {Samson} visited his wife with a kid;

and he said, I will go in to my wife into the chamber. But her

father would not suffer him to go in.

samson And {Samson} said concerning them, Now shall I
be

more blameless than the Philistines, though I do them a
displeasure.

samson And {Samson} went and caught three hundred
foxes,

and took firebrands, and turned tail to tail, and put a
firebrand in

the midst between two tails.

samson Then the Philistines said, Who hath done this?
And

they answered, {Samson}, the son in law of the Timnite, because
he

had taken his wife, and given her to his companion. And the

Philistines came up, and burnt her and her father with fire

.

samson And {Samson} said unto them, Though ye have
done

this, yet will I be avenged of you, and after that I will cease.

samson And the men of Judah said, Why are ye come up

against us? And they answered, To bind {Samson} are we come up,
to

do to him as he hath done to us.

samson Then three thousand men of Judah went to the
top

of the rock Etam, and said to {Samson}, Knowest thou not that the

Philistines [are] rulers over us? what [is] this [that] thou hast

done unto us? And he said unto them, As they did unto m

e, so have I done unto them.

samson And they said unto him, We are come down to
bind

thee, that we may deliver thee into the hand of the Philistines.
And

{Samson} said unto them, Swear unto me, that ye will not fall
upon

me yourselves.

samson And {Samson} said, With the jawbone of an ass,

heaps upon heaps, with the jaw of an ass have I slain a thousand

men.

samson Then went {Samson} to Gaza, and saw there an

harlot, and went in unto her.

samson [And it was told] the Gazites, saying,
{Samson} is

come hither. And they compassed [him] in, and laid wait for him
all

night in the gate of the city, and were quiet all the night,
saying,

In the morning, when it is day, we shall kill him

.

samson And {Samson} lay till midnight, and arose at

midnight, and took the doors of the gate of the city, and the two

posts, and went away with them, bar and all, and put [them] upon
his

shoulders, and carried them up to the top of an hill that

[is] before Hebron.

samson And Delilah said to {Samson}, Tell me, I pray

thee, wherein thy great strength [lieth], and wherewith thou

mightest be bound to afflict thee.

samson And {Samson} said unto her, If they bind me
with

seven green withs that were never dried, then shall I be weak,
and

be as another man.

samson Now [there were] men lying in wait, abiding
with

her in the chamber. And she said unto him, The Philistines [be]
upon

thee, {Samson}. And he brake the withs, as a thread of tow is
broken

when it toucheth the fire. So his strength was not

known.

samson And Delilah said unto {Samson}, Behold, thou
hast

mocked me, and told me lies: now tell me, I pray thee, wherewith

thou mightest be bound.

samson Delilah therefore took new ropes, and bound
him

therewith, and said unto him, The Philistines [be] upon thee,

{Samson}. And [there were] liers in wait abiding in the chamber.
And

he brake them from off his arms like a thread.

samson And Delilah said unto {Samson}, Hitherto thou

hast mocked me, and told me lies: tell me wherewith thou
mightest be

bound. And he said unto her, If thou weavest the seven locks of
my

head with the web.

samson And she fastened [it] with the pin, and said
unto

him, The Philistines [be] upon thee, {Samson}. And he awaked out
of

his sleep, and went away with the pin of the beam, and with the
web.

samson And she said, The Philistines [be] upon thee,

{Samson}. And he awoke out of his sleep, and said, I will go out
as

at other times before, and shake myself. And he wist not that the

LORD was departed from him.

samson Then the lords of the Philistines gathered
them

together for to offer a great sacrifice unto Dagon their god,
and to

rejoice: for they said, Our god hath delivered {Samson} our enemy

into our hand.

samson And it came to pass, when their hearts were

merry, that they said, Call for {Samson}, that he may make us
sport.

And they called for Samson out of the prison house; and he made
them

sport: and they set him between the pillars.

samson And it came to pass, when their hearts were

merry, that they said, Call for Samson, that he may make us
sport.

And they called for {Samson} out of the prison house; and he made

them sport: and they set him between the pillars.

samson And {Samson} said unto the lad that held him
by

the hand, Suffer me that I may feel the pillars whereupon the
house

standeth, that I may lean upon them.

samson Now the house was full of men and women; and
all

the lords of the Philistines [were] there; and [there were] upon
the

roof about three thousand men and women, that beheld while
{Samson}

made sport.

samson And {Samson} called unto the LORD, and said, O

Lord GOD, remember me, I pray thee, and strengthen me, I pray
thee,

only this once, O God, that I may be at once avenged of the

Philistines for my two eyes.

samson And {Samson} took hold of the two middle
pillars

upon which the house stood, and on which it was borne up, of the
one

with his right hand, and of the other with his left.

samson And {Samson} said, Let me die with the

Philistines. And he bowed himself with [all his] might; and the

house fell upon the lords, and upon all the people that [were]

therein. So the dead which he slew at his death were more than

[they]

which he slew in his life.

samson And what shall I more say? for the time would

fail me to tell of Gedeon, and of] Barak, and of] {Samson}, and
of]

Jephthae; of] David also, and Samuel, and of] the prophets:
