Judges 14:15-18

And it came to pass on the seventh
<07637>
day
<03117>_,
that they said
<0559> (8799)
unto Samson's
<08123>
wife
<0802>_,
Entice
<06601> (8761)
thy husband
<0376>_,
that he may declare
<05046> (8686)
unto us the riddle
<02420>_,
lest we burn
<08313> (8799)
thee and thy father's
<01>
house
<01004>
with fire
<0784>_:
have ye called
<07121> (8804)
us to take that we have
<03423> (8800)_?
[is it] not [so]? {take...: Heb. possess us, or, impoverish us?}
And Samson's
<08123>
wife
<0802>
wept
<01058> (8799)
before him, and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Thou dost but hate
<08130> (8804)
me, and lovest
<0157> (8804)
me not: thou hast put forth
<02330> (8804)
a riddle
<02420>
unto the children
<01121>
of my people
<05971>_,
and hast not told
<05046> (8689)
[it] me. And he said
<0559> (8799)
unto her, Behold, I have not told
<05046> (8689)
[it] my father
<01>
nor my mother
<0517>_,
and shall I tell
<05046> (8686)
[it] thee?
And she wept
<01058> (8799)
before him the seven
<07651>
days
<03117>_,
while their feast
<04960>
lasted
<01961> (8804)_:
and it came to pass on the seventh
<07637>
day
<03117>_,
that he told
<05046> (8686)
her, because she lay sore
<06693> (8689)
upon him: and she told
<05046> (8686)
the riddle
<02420>
to the children
<01121>
of her people
<05971>_.
{the seven...: or, the rest of the seven days}
And the men
<0582>
of the city
<05892>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto him on the seventh
<07637>
day
<03117>
before the sun
<02775>
went down
<0935> (8799)_,
What [is] sweeter
<04966>
than honey
<01706>_?
and what [is] stronger
<05794>
than a lion
<0738>_?
And he said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, If
<03884>
ye had not plowed
<02790> (8804)
with my heifer
<05697>_,
ye had not found out
<04672> (8804)
my riddle
<02420>_.
