Tree of Life Version
4 It came about afterward that he fell in love with a woman in the valley of Sorek, whose name was Delilah. 5 So the Philistine lords came up to her and said to her, “Coax him, see where his great strength comes from and by what we may overpower him, so we may bind him to subdue him—then we’ll each of us give you 1,100 pieces of silver.”
6 So Delilah said to Samson, “Tell me please, where does your great strength come from? How could you be bound to subdue you?”
