Samson said to her, &#8220;If they tie me up with seven fresh<n id="1" /> bowstrings<n id="2" /> that have not been dried, I will become weak and be just like any other man.&#8221;

He said to her, &#8220;If they tie me tightly with brand new ropes that have never been used,<n id="1" /> I will become weak and be just like any other man.&#8221;

Finally he told her his secret.<n id="1" /> He said to her, &#8220;My hair has never been cut,<n id="2" /> for I have been dedicated to God<n id="3" /> from the time I was conceived.<n id="4" /> If my head<n id="5" /> were shaved, my strength would leave me; I would become weak, and be just like all other men.&#8221;
