Judges 14:2-4

2And he cameH5927 up, and toldH5046 his fatherH1 and his motherH517, and saidH559, I have seenH7200 a womanH802 in TimnahH8553 of the daughtersH1323 of the PhilistinesH6430: nowH6258 thereforeH6258 get her for me to wifeH802. 3Then his fatherH1 and his motherH517 saidH559 unto him, Is there never a womanH802 among the daughtersH1323 of thy brethren, or among all my peopleH5971, that thou goest to takeH3947 a wifeH802 of the uncircumcisedH6189 PhilistinesH6430? And SamsonH8123 saidH559 unto his fatherH1, Get her for me; for she pleaseth me well. 4But his fatherH1 and his motherH517 knewH3045 not that it was of Jehovah; for he soughtH1245 an occasion against the PhilistinesH6430. Now at that timeH6256 the PhilistinesH6430 had ruleH4910 over IsraelH3478.
