New American Standard Bible 1995

¹³ Then Delilah said to Samson, “Up to now you have deceived me and told me lies; tell me ^[a]how you may be bound.” And he said to her, “If you weave the seven locks of my ^[b]hair with the web ^[c][and fasten it with a pin, then I will become weak and be like any other man.” ¹⁴ So while he slept, Delilah took the seven locks of his ^[d]hair and wove them into the web]. And she fastened it with the pin and said to him, “The Philistines are upon you, Samson!” But he awoke from his sleep and pulled out the pin of the loom and the web.
