Then
Delilah said to Samson, "Look, you have mocked me and told me lies.
Now, please tell me what you may be bound with."
So he said to her, "If they bind me securely with new ropes
that have never been used, then I shall become weak, and be like any other
man." Therefore
Delilah took new ropes and bound him with them, and said to him, "The
Philistines are upon you, Samson!" And men were lying in wait,
staying in the room. But he broke them off his arms like a thread. Delilah
said to Samson, "Until now you have mocked me and told me lies. Tell
me what you may be bound with." And he said to her, "If you
weave the seven locks of my head into the web of the loom"; So she
wove it tightly with the batten of the loom, and said to him, "The
Philistines are upon you, Samson!" But he awoke from his sleep, and
pulled out the batten and the web from the loom. Then
she said to him, "How can you say, 'I love you,' when your heart is
not with me? You have mocked me these three times, and have not told me
where your great strength lies."
And it came to pass, when she pestered him daily with her words and
pressed him, so that his soul was vexed to death, that he told her all his
heart, and said to her, "No razor has ever come upon my head, for I
have been a Nazirite to God from my mother's womb. If I am shaven, then my
strength will leave me, and I shall become weak, and be like any other
man." When
Delilah saw that he had told her all his heart, she sent and called for
the lords of the Philistines, saying, "Come up once more, for he has
told me all his heart." So the lords of the Philistines came up to
her and brought the money in their hand.
Then she lulled him to sleep, and called for a man and had him
shave off the seven locks of his head. Then she began to torment him, and
his strength left him. And
she said, "The Philistines are upon you, Samson!" So he awoke
from his sleep, and said, "I will go out as before, at other times,
and shake myself free!" But he did not know that the LORD had
departed from him. Then the Philistines took him and put out his eyes, and brought him down to Gaza. They bound him with bronze fetters, and he became a grinder in the prison. However, the hair of his head began to grow again after it had been shaven. She lost all the male members of her family. On returning to her home she called herself, "bitter". Who she was?
