Judges 16:13-15
Christian Standard Bible
13 Then Delilah said to Samson, “You have mocked me all along and told me lies! Tell me how you can be tied up.”
He told her, “If you weave the seven braids on my head into the fabric on a loom—” [a]
14 She fastened the braids with a pin and called to him, “Samson, the Philistines are here!” He awoke from his sleep and pulled out the pin, with the loom and the web.
15 “How can you say, ‘I love you,’”(A) she told him, “when your heart is not with me? This is the third time you have mocked me and not told me what makes your strength so great!”
