Judges 15:1-3

The Message

15 ^1-2 Later on—it was during the wheat harvest—Samson visited his bride, bringing a young goat. He said, “Let me see my wife—show me her bedroom.”

But her father wouldn’t let him in. He said, “I concluded that by now you hated her with a passion, so I gave her to your best man. But her little sister is even more beautiful. Why not take her instead?”

³ Samson said, “That does it. This time when I wreak havoc on the Philistines, I’m blameless.”
