Judges 16:18-20

Lexham English Bible

¹⁸ Delilah realized that he had confided in her,^[a] so she sent and called the rulers of the Philistines, saying, “Come up one more time, for he has confided in me.”^[b] And the rulers of the Philistines came up, and they brought the money with them.^{[c] 19} And she put him to sleep on her lap; then she called the men^[d] and shaved off seven locks of his head. Then she began to subdue him,^[e] and his strength went away from him. ²⁰ And she said to him, “The Philistines are upon you, Samson!” And he woke up from his sleep and said, “I will go out just like every other time and shake myself free,” but he did not know that Yahweh had left him.
