Judges 14:6-8

New English Translation

⁶ The Lord’s Spirit empowered^[a] him, and he tore the lion^[b] in two with his bare hands^[c] as easily as one would tear a young goat. But he did not tell his father or mother what he had done.

⁷ Samson continued on down to Timnah^[d] and spoke to the girl. In his opinion, she was just the right one.^{[e] 8} Some time later, when he went back to marry^[f] her, he turned aside to see the lion’s remains. He saw^[g] a swarm of bees in the lion’s carcass, as well as some honey.
