2 And her father said, “I verily thought that thou hadst utterly hated her. Therefore I gave her to thy companion. Is not her younger sister fairer than she? Take her, I pray thee, instead of her.”
3 And Samson said concerning them, “Now shall I be more blameless than the Philistines, though I do them a displeasure.”
