Judges 16:7-9

21st Century King James Version

⁷ And Samson said unto her, “If they bind me with seven green withes that were never dried, then shall I be weak and be as another man.”

⁸ Then the lords of the Philistines brought up to her seven green withes which had not been dried, and she bound him with them.

⁹ Now there were men lying in wait, abiding with her in the chamber. And she said unto him, “The Philistines be upon thee, Samson.” And he broke the withes as a thread of tow is broken when it toucheth the fire. So his strength was not known.
