Judges 14:16 CPDV

14  And he said to them, 'Food went forth from that which eats, and sweetness went forth from that which is strong.' And they were unable to solve the proposition for three days.

15  And when the seventh day had arrived, they said to the wife of Samson: 'Coax your husband, and persuade him to reveal to you what the proposition means. But if you are not willing to do so, we will burn you and your father's house. Or have you called us to the wedding in order to despoil us?'

16  And she shed tears before Samson, and she complained, saying: 'You hate me, and you do not love me. That is why you do not want to explain to me the problem, which you have proposed to the sons of my people.' But he responded: 'I was not willing to reveal it to my father and mother. And so, how can I reveal it to you?'

17  Therefore, she wept before him during the seven days of the feast. And at length, on the seventh day, since she had been troubling him, he explained it. And immediately she revealed it to her countrymen.

18  And they, on the seventh day, before the sun declined, said to him: 'What is sweeter than honey? And what is stronger than a lion?' And he said to them, 'If you had not plowed with my heifer, you would not have uncovered my proposition.'
