Judges 16:10-12

10Then Delilah said to Samson, “Behold, you have deceived me and told me lies; now please tell me 1how you may be bound.” 11He said to her, “If they bind me tightly with new ropes 2which have not been used, then I will become weak and be like any other man.” 12So Delilah took new ropes and bound him with them and said to him, “The Philistines are upon you, Samson!” For the men were lying in wait in the inner room. But he snapped 3the ropes from his arms like a thread.
