Judges 14:17 in Context — Judges 14
15 E ao sétimo dia disseram à mulher de Sansão: Induz a teu marido a que nos declare este enigma, para que não te queimemos a ti e à casa de teu pai. Chamaste-nos aqui para possuir-nos?
16 E chorou a mulher de Sansão diante dele, e disse: Somente me aborreces e não me amas, pois que não me declaras o enigma que propuseste aos filhos de meu povo. E ele respondeu: Eis que nem a meu pai nem a minha mãe o declarei; e havia eu de declará-lo a ti?
17 E ela chorou diante dele os sete dias que eles tiveram banquete: mas ao sétimo dia ele o declarou a ela, porque lhe constrangeu; e ela o declarou aos filhos de seu povo.
18 E ao sétimo dia, antes que o sol se pusesse, os da cidade lhe disseram: Que coisa mais doce que o mel? E que coisa mais forte que o leão? Se não arásseis com minha novilha, Nunca teríeis descoberto meu enigma.
19 E o espírito do SENHOR caiu sobre ele, e desceu a Asquelom, e feriu trinta homens deles; e tomando seus despojos, deu as mudas de vestidos aos que haviam explicado o enigma: e acendido em ira foi-se à casa de seu pai.
