Judges 16:19 in Context — Judges 16
17 il lui ouvrit tout son cœur, et lui dit: Le rasoir n’a point passé sur ma tête, parce que je suis consacré à Dieu dès le ventre de ma mère. Si j’étais rasé, ma force m’abandonnerait, je deviendrais faible, et je serais comme tout autre homme.
18 Delila, voyant qu’il lui avait ouvert tout son cœur, envoya appeler les princes des Philistins, et leur fit dire: Montez cette fois, car il m’a ouvert tout son cœur. Et les princes des Philistins montèrent vers elle, et apportèrent l’argent dans leurs mains.
19 Elle l’endormit sur ses genoux. Et ayant appelé un homme, elle rasa les sept tresses de la tête de Samson, et commença ainsi à le dompter. Il perdit sa force.
20 Elle dit alors: Les Philistins sont sur toi, Samson! Et il se réveilla de son sommeil, et dit: Je m’en tirerai comme les autres fois, et je me dégagerai. Il ne savait pas que l’Éternel s’était retiré de lui.
21 Les Philistins le saisirent, et lui crevèrent les yeux; ils le firent descendre à Gaza, et le lièrent avec des chaînes d’airain. Il tournait la meule dans la prison.
