Judges 14:3-5
New King James Version
Judges 14:3-5
New King James Version
3 Then his father and mother said to him, “Is there no woman among the daughters of (A)your brethren, or among all my people, that you must go and get a wife from the (B)uncircumcised Philistines?”
And Samson said to his father, “Get her for me, for [a]she pleases me well.”
4 But his father and mother did not know that it was (C)of the Lord—that He was seeking an occasion to move against the Philistines. For at that time (D)the Philistines had dominion over Israel.
5 So Samson went down to Timnah with his father and mother, and came to the vineyards of Timnah.
Now to his surprise, a young lion came roaring against him.
