Judges 14:2-4

2So he came 1back and told his father and 2mother, “I saw a woman in Timnah, one of the daughters of the Philistines; now therefore, get her for me as a wife.” 3Then his father and his mother said to him, “Is there no woman among the daughters of your 34relatives, or among all 5our people, that you go to 6take a wife from the uncircumcised Philistines?” But Samson said to his father, “Get her for me, for she 7looks good to me.” 4However, his father and mother did not know that 8it was of the Lord, for He was seeking an occasion against the Philistines. Now at that time the Philistines were ruling over Israel.
