Judges 16:16-21

Judges 16:16-21

[16] And it came to pass, when she pressed  him daily  with her words,  and urged  him, so that his soul  was vexed  unto death;  [17] That he told  her all his heart,  and said  unto her, There hath not come  a razor  upon mine head;  for I have been a Nazarite  unto God  from my mother's  womb:  if I be shaven,  then my strength  will go  from me, and I shall become weak,  and be like any other man.  [18] And when Delilah  saw  that he had told  her all his heart,  she sent  and called  for the lords  of the Philistines,  saying,  Come up  this once,  for he hath shewed  me all his heart.  Then the lords  of the Philistines  came up  money  in their hand.  [19] And she made him sleep  upon her knees;  and she called  for a man,  and she caused him to shave off  the seven  locks  of his head;  and she began  to afflict  him, and his strength  went  [20] And she said,  The Philistines  be upon thee, Samson.  And he awoke  out of his sleep,  and said,  I will go out  as at other times before,  and shake  myself. And he wist  not that the LORD  was departed  [21] But the Philistines  took  him, and put out  his eyes,  and brought him down  to Gaza,  and bound  him with fetters of brass;  and he did grind  in the prison  house.
