Judges 14:5-10

5Then wentH935 SamsonH8123 downH3381, and his fatherH1 and his motherH517, to TimnahH8553, and cameH935 to the vineyardsH3754 of TimnahH8553: and, beholdH2009, a youngH3715 lionH738 roaredH7580 againstH7125 him.

6And the spiritH7307 of the LORDH3068 cameH7307 mightily uponH5921 him, and he rent him as he would have rent a kid, and he had nothingH3808 in his handH3027: but he toldH5046 notH3808 his fatherH1 or his motherH517 whatH834 he had doneH6213.

7And he wentH3381 downH3381, and talkedH1696 with the womanH802; and she pleasedH5869 SamsonH8123 well.

8And afterH3117 a whileH3117 he returnedH7725 to takeH3947 herH3947, and he turnedH7725 asideH5493 to seeH7200 the carcase of the lionH738: and, beholdH2009, there was a swarmH5712 of beesH1682 in the body of the lionH738, and honeyH1706.

9And he tookH1980 it intoH413 his handsH3709, and wentH1980 on, eatingH398 as he wentH1980, and he cameH1980 to his fatherH1 and motherH517, and gaveH5414 unto them, and they didH3808 eatH398: but he toldH5046 them notH3808 that he had takenH5414 the honeyH1706 outH413 of the body of the lionH738.

10And his fatherH1 wentH3381 downH3381 unto the womanH802: and SamsonH8123 madeH6213 there a feastH4960; for soH3651 usedH6213 the youngH970 menH970 to doH6213.
