¹¹Samson said, “Let someone tie me tightly with new ropes. They must be ropes that have never been used. Then I’ll become as weak as any other man.”

And he said to her, “If they bind me with new ropes that have not been used, then I shall become weak and be like any other man.”

He said, “If anyone ties me securely with new ropes that have never been used, I’ll become as weak as any other man.”

He told her, “If they tie me up with new ropes that have never been used, I will become weak and be like any other man.”

Samson replied, “If I were tied up with brand-new ropes that had never been used, I would become as weak as anyone else.”

He said to her, “If they tie me tightly with new ropes that have not been used, I will become weak and be like everyone else.”

And he said unto her, If they bind me fast with new ropes that never were occupied, then shall I be weak, and be as another man.
