— Judges 16:16, King James Version with Apocrypha
“And it came to pass, when she pressed him daily with her words, and urged him, so that his soul was vexed unto death;”
“And it came to pass, when she pressed him daily with her words, and urged him, that his soul was vexed unto death. ”
“It happened, when she pressed him daily with her words, and urged him, that his soul was troubled to death.”
“She nagged him every day and pressured him until he was sick to death of it.”
“And when she pressed him much, and continually hung upon him for many days, giving him no time to rest, his soul fainted away, and was wearied even unto death.”
“So day after day she gave him no peace, for ever questioning him till his soul was troubled to death.”
And Delilah said unto Samson, Hitherto thou hast mocked me, and told me lies: tell me wherewith thou mightest be bound. And he said unto her, If thou weavest the seven locks of my head with the web.

And she said unto him, How canst thou say, I love thee, when thine heart is not with me? thou hast mocked me these three times, and hast not told me wherein thy great strength lieth.

That he told her all his heart, and said unto her, There hath not come a razor upon mine head; for I have been a Nazarite unto God from my mother’s womb: if I be shaven, then my strength will go from me, and I shall become weak, and be like any other man.
And when Delilah saw that he had told her all his heart, she sent and called for the lords of the Philistines, saying, Come up this once, for he hath shewed me all his heart. Then the lords of the Philistines came up unto her, and brought money in their hand.
And she made him sleep upon her knees; and she called for a man, and she caused him to shave off the seven locks of his head; and she began to afflict him, and his strength went from him.
