Judges 16:18-21 ▼

18 When Delilah saw that he had told her all [that was] in his heart, she sent and called the lords of the Philistines, saying, |Come up once more, for he has told me all [that is] in his heart.| Then the lords of the Philistines came up to her and brought the money in their hands.

19 She made him sleep on her knees, and called for a man and had him shave off the seven locks of his hair. Then she began to afflict him, and his strength left him.

20 She said, |The Philistines are upon you, Samson!| And he awoke from his sleep and said, |I will go out as at other times and shake myself free.| But he did not know that the LORD had departed from him.

21 Then the Philistines seized him and gouged out his eyes; and they brought him down to Gaza and bound him with bronze chains, and he was a grinder in the prison.
