Hakim-hakim 16:11-12

16:11 He said to her, “If they tie me tightly with brand new ropes that have never been used, ¹  I will become weak and be just like any other man.” 16:12 So Delilah took new ropes and tied him with them and said to him, “The Philistines are here, ²  Samson!” (The Philistines were hiding in the bedroom.) ³  But he tore the ropes ⁴  from his arms as if they were a piece of thread.

[16:11]  ¹ tn Heb “with which no work has been done.”

[16:12]  ² tn Heb “are upon you.”

[16:12]  ³ tn Heb “And the ones lying in wait were sitting in the bedroom.”
