Men lying privately in wait with her, and in the chamber, expecting the event of the thing, and she cried out to him: The Philistines are upon thee, Samson. And he broke the bands, as a man would break a thread of tow twined with spittle, when it smelleth the fire: so it was not known wherein his strength lay.
King James
¿µ¾î¼º°æ
Now there were men lying in wait, abiding with her in the chamber. And she said unto him, The Philistines be upon thee, Samson. And he brake the withs, as a thread of tow is broken when it toucheth the fire. So his strength was not known.
Louis Second

Or des gens se tenaient en embuscade chez elle, dans une chambre. Elle lui dit: Les Philistins sont sur toi, Samson! Et il rompit les cordes, comme se rompt un cordon d'étoupe quand il sent le feu. Et l'on ne connut point d'où venait sa force
Martin Luther
µ¶¾î¼º°æ
(Man hielt aber auf ihn bei ihr in der Kammer.) Und sie sprach zu ihm: Die Philister über dir, Simson! Er aber zerriß die Seile, wie eine flächserne Schnur zerreißet, wenn sie ans Feuer reucht; und war nicht kund, wo seine Kraft wäre.
