Samson Troubles the Philistines
15 At the time of the wheat harvest, Samson went to visit his wife. He took a young goat with him. He said, “I’m going to my wife’s room.” But her father would not let Samson go in.
2 He said to Samson, “I thought you really hated your wife. So I gave her to the best man from the wedding. Her younger sister is more beautiful. Take her.”
3 But Samson said to him, “Now I have a good reason to hurt you Philistines. No one will blame me!”
