Judges 16:5-7

English Standard Version

⁵ And ^(A)the lords of the Philistines came up to her and said to her, ^(B)“Seduce him, and see where his great strength lies, and by what means we may overpower him, that we may bind him to ^(C)humble him. And we will each give you 1,100 pieces of silver.” ⁶ So Delilah said to Samson, “Please tell me where your great strength lies, and how you might be bound, that one could ^(D)subdue you.”

⁷ Samson said to her, “If they bind me with seven fresh bowstrings that have not been dried, ^(E)then I shall become weak and be like any other man.”
