God’s Word Translation
Judges 16:8-9
8The Philistine rulers brought her seven new bowstrings that were not dried out. She tied Samson up with them.
9Some men were hiding in the bedroom waiting for her ⌞to tie him up⌟. Then she said to him, “Samson, the Philistines are attacking!” Samson snapped the bowstrings as a thread snaps when it touches fire. So no one found out why he was so strong.
