Judges 16:15-17

15Then she saidH559 to him, “1HowH349 can you sayH559, ‘I loveH157 you,’ when your heartH3820 is not with me? You have toyedH8524 with me theseH2088 threeH7969 timesH6471 and have not toldH5046 me whereH4100 your greatH1419 strengthH3581 is.” 16And it cameH1961 aboutH1961, whenH3588 she pressedH6693 him dailyH3117 with her wordsH1697 and urgedH509 him, that his soulH5315 was 2annoyedH7114 to deathH4191. 17So he toldH5046 her allH3605 that was in his heartH3820 and saidH559 to her, “A razorH4177 has neverH3808 comeH5927 on my headH7218, for I have been a 3NaziriteH5139 to GodH430 from my mother’sH517 wombH990. IfH518 I am shavedH1548, then my strengthH3581 will leaveH5493H4480 me and I will becomeH2470 weakH2470 and be like anyH3605 other manH120.”
