ગુજરાતીન્યાયાધીશો ૧૬:૧૩
દલિલાએ સામસૂનને કહ્યું, “અત્યાર સુધી તેં મને છેતરીને મને જૂઠી વાતો કહી છે. હવે અમને કહે કે કેવી રીતે અમે તને હરાવી શકીએ?” સામસૂને તેને કહ્યું, “જો તું મારા માથાના વાળની સાત લટો તાણાની સાથે વણે તો હું અન્ય માણસો જેવો થઈ જઈશ.
हिन्दीन्यायियों १६:१३
तब दलीला ने शिमशोन से कहा, “अब तक तू मुझसे छल करता, और झूठ बोलता आया है; अब मुझे बता दे कि तू किस से बन्ध सकता है?” उसने कहा, “यदि तू मेरे सिर की सातों लटें ताने में बुने तो बन्ध सकूँगा।”

In context

11He said to her, “If they only bind me with new ropes with which no work has been done, then I will become weak, and be as another man.”

12So Delilah took new ropes and bound him with them, then said to him, “The Philistines are on you, Samson!” The ambush was waiting in the inner room. He broke them off his arms like a thread.

13Delilah said to Samson, “Until now, you have mocked me and told me lies. Tell me with what you might be bound.” He said to her, “If you weave the seven locks of my head with the fabric on the loom.”

14She fastened it with the pin, and said to him, “The Philistines are on you, Samson!” He awakened out of his sleep, and plucked away the pin of the beam and the fabric.

15She said to him, “How can you say, ‘I love you,’ when your heart is not with me? You have mocked me these three times, and have not told me where your great strength lies.”
