Judges 16:8 WEB

⁶  Delilah said to Samson, Tell me, Please, in which your great strength lies, and with which you might be bound to afflict you.

⁷  Samson said to her, If they bind me with seven green cords that were never dried, then shall I become weak, and be as another man.

⁸  Then the lords of the Philistines brought up to her seven green cords which had not been dried, and she bound him with them.

⁹  Now she had liers-in-wait abiding in the inner chamber. She said to him, The Philistines are on you, Samson. He broke the cords, as a string of tow is broken when it touches the fire. So his strength was not known.

¹⁰  Delilah said to Samson, Behold, you have mocked me, and told me lies: now tell me, Please, with which you might be bound.
