New Living Translation
Judges 14:10-14
10As his father was making final arrangements for the marriage, Samson threw a party at Timnah, as was the custom for elite young men.
11When the bride’s parents saw him, they selected thirty young men from the town to be his companions.
12Samson said to them, “Let me tell you a riddle. If you solve my riddle during these seven days of the celebration, I will give you thirty fine linen robes and thirty sets of festive clothing.
13But if you can’t solve it, then you must give me thirty fine linen robes and thirty sets of festive clothing.” “All right,” they agreed, “let’s hear your riddle.”
14So he said: “Out of the one who eats came something to eat; out of the strong came something sweet.” Three days later they were still trying to figure it out.
