Judges 15:1-4

15:1

But it came to pass within a while after
<03117>_,

in the time
<03117>

of wheat
<02406>

harvest
<07105>_,

that Samson
<08123>

visited
<06485> (8799)

his wife
<0802>

with a kid
<01423> <05795>_;

and he said
<0559> (8799)_,

I will go in
<0935> (8799)

to my wife
<0802>

into the chamber
<02315>_.

But her father
<01>

would not suffer
<05414> (8804)

him to go in
<0935> (8800)_.

15:2

And her father
<01>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

I verily
<0559> (8800)

thought
<0559> (8804)

that thou hadst utterly
<08130> (8800)

hated
<08130> (8804)

her; therefore I gave
<05414> (8799)

her to thy companion
<04828>_:

[is] not her younger
<06996>

sister
<0269>

fairer
<02896>

than she? take her, I pray thee, instead of her. {take...: Heb. let her be thine}

15:3

And Samson
<08123>

said
<0559> (8799)

concerning them, Now
<06471>

shall I be more blameless
<05352> (8738)

than the Philistines
<06430>_,

though I do
<06213> (8802)

them a displeasure
<07451>_.

{more...: or, blameless from the Philistines though, etc}

15:4

And Samson
<08123>

went
<03212> (8799)

and caught
<03920> (8799)

three
<07969>

hundred
<03967>

foxes
<07776>_,

and took
<03947> (8799)

firebrands
<03940>_,

and turned
<06437> (8686)

tail
<02180>

to tail
<02180>_,

and put
<07760> (8799)

a
<0259>

firebrand
<03940>

in the midst
<08432>

between two
<08147>

tails
<02180>_.

{firebrands: or, torches}
