Revised Literal Translation
Judges 14:2-4
2And he came up, and told his father and his mother, and said, I have seen a woman in Timnath of the daughters of the Philistines: now therefore get her for me to wife.
3Then his father and his mother said unto him, Is there never a woman among the daughters of thy brethren, or among all my people, that thou goest to take a wife of the uncircumcised Philistines? And Samson said unto his father, Get her for me; for she pleaseth me well.1
4But his father and his mother knew not that it was of Yhwh, that he sought an occasion against the Philistines: for at that time the Philistines had dominion over Israel.
