His wife was infertile and had borne no children. ", "An angel of GOD appeared to the woman and said to her, “You are infertile and have borne no children; but you shall conceive and bear a son. ", "Now be careful not to drink wine or other intoxicant, or to eat anything impure. ", "For you are going to conceive and bear a son; let no razor touch his head, for the boy is to be a nazirite to God from the womb on. He shall be the first to deliver Israel from the Philistines.”", "The woman went and told her husband, “An agent of God came to me; he looked like an angel of God, very frightening. I did not ask him where he was from, nor did he tell me his name. ", "He said to me, ‘You are going to conceive and bear a son. Drink no wine or other intoxicant, and eat nothing impure, for the boy is to be a nazirite to God from the womb to the day of his death!’”", "Manoah pleaded with GOD. “Oh, my Sovereign!” he said, “please let the agent of God that You sent come to us again, and let him instruct us how to act with the child that is to be born.” ", "God heeded Manoah’s plea, and the angel of God came to the woman again. She was sitting in the field and her husband Manoah was not with her. ", "The woman ran in haste to tell her husband. She said to him, “The man who came to me before has just appeared to me.” ", "Manoah promptly followed his wife. He came to that figure and asked him: “Are you the one who spoke to my wife?” “Yes,” he answered. ", "Then Manoah said, “May your words soon come true! What rules shall be observed for the boy?” ", "The angel of GOD said to Manoah, “The woman must abstain from all the things against which I warned her. ", "She must not eat anything that comes from the grapevine, or drink wine or other intoxicant, or eat anything impure. She must observe all that I commanded her.”", "Manoah said to the angel of GOD, “Let us detain you and prepare a kid for you.” ", "But the angel of GOD said to Manoah, “If you detain me, I shall not eat your food; and if you present a burnt offering, offer it to GOD.”—For Manoah did not know that he was an angel of GOD. ", "So Manoah said to the angel of GOD, “What is your name? We should like to honor you when your words come true.” ", "The angel said to him, “You must not ask for my name; it is unknowable!”", "Manoah took the kid and the grain offering and offered them up on the rock to GOD; and a marvelous thing happened while Manoah and his wife looked on. ", "As the flames leaped up from the altar toward the sky, the angel of GOD ascended in the flames of the altar, while Manoah and his wife looked on; and they flung themselves on their faces to the ground.— ", "The angel of GOD never appeared again to Manoah and his wife.—Manoah then realized that it had been an angel of GOD. ", "And Manoah said to his wife, “We will surely die, for we have seen a divine being.” ", "But his wife said to him, “Had GOD meant to take our lives, our burnt offering and grain offering would not have been accepted, nor would we have been shown all these things—and [God] would not have made such an announcement to us.”", "The woman bore a son, and she named him Samson. The boy grew up, and GOD blessed him. ", "The spirit of GOD first moved him in the encampment of Dan, between Zorah and Eshtaol."], ["Once Samson went down to Timnah; and while in Timnah, he noticed a certain young Philistine woman. ", "On his return, he told his father and mother, “I noticed one of the Philistine women in Timnah; please get her for me as a wife.” ", "His father and mother said to him, “Is there no one among the daughters of your own kindred and among all our people, that you must go and take a wife from the uncircumcised Philistines?” But Samson answered his father, “Get me that one, for she is the one that pleases me.” ", "His father and mother did not realize that his request was from GOD, who was seeking a pretext against the Philistines, for the Philistines were ruling over Israel at that time. ", "So Samson and his father and mother went down to Timnah.
When he came to the vineyards of Timnah [for the first time], a full-grown lion came roaring at him. ", "The spirit of GOD gripped him, and he tore him asunder with his bare hands as one might tear a kid asunder; but he did not tell his father and mother what he had done. ", "Then he went down and spoke to the woman, and she pleased Samson.", "Returning the following year to marry her, he turned aside to look at the remains of the lion; and in the lion’s skeleton he found a swarm of bees, and honey. ", "He scooped it into his palms and ate it as he went along. When he rejoined his father and mother, he gave them some and they ate it; but he did not tell them that he had scooped the honey out of a lion’s skeleton.", "So his father came down to the woman, and Samson made a feast there, as young men used to do. ", "When the people of Timnah saw him, they designated thirty companions to be with him. ", "Then Samson said to them, “Let me propound a riddle to you. If you can give me the right answer during the seven days of the feast, I shall give you thirty linen tunics and thirty sets of clothing; ", "but if you are not able to tell it to me, you must give me thirty linen tunics and thirty sets of clothing.” And they said to him, “Ask your riddle and we will listen.” ", "So he said to them:
“Out of the eater came something to eat,
Out of the strong came something sweet.”
For three days they could not answer the riddle.", "On the seventh day, they said to Samson’s wife, “Coax your husband to provide us with the answer to the riddle; else we shall put you and your father’s household to the fire; have you invited us here in order to impoverish us?” ", "Then Samson’s wife harassed him with tears, and she said, “You really hate me, you don’t love me. You asked my people a riddle, and you didn’t tell me the answer.” He replied, “I haven’t even told my father and mother; shall I tell you?” ", "During the rest of the seven days of the feast she continued to harass him with her tears, and on the seventh day he told her, because she nagged him so. And she explained the riddle to her people. ", "On the seventh day, before the sunset, the townspeople said to him:
“What is sweeter than honey,
And what is stronger than a lion?”
He responded:
“Had you not plowed with my heifer,
You would not have guessed my riddle!”
", "The spirit of GOD gripped him. He went down to Ashkelon and killed thirty of its men. He stripped them and gave the sets of clothing to those who had answered the riddle. And he left in a rage for his father’s house.", "Samson’s wife then got married to one of those who had been his wedding companions."], ["Some time later, in the season of the wheat harvest, Samson came to visit his wife, bringing a kid as a gift. He said, “Let me go into the chamber to my wife.” But her father would not let him go in. ", "“I was sure,” said her father, “that you had taken a dislike to her, so I gave her to your wedding companion. But her younger sister is more beautiful than she; let her become your wife instead.” ", "Thereupon Samson declared, “Now the Philistines can have no claim against me for the harm I shall do them.”", "Samson went and caught three hundred foxes. He took torches and, turning [the foxes] tail to tail, he placed a torch between each pair of tails. ", "He lit the torches and turned [the foxes] loose among the standing grain of the Philistines, setting fire to stacked grain, standing grain, vineyards, [and] olive trees.", "The Philistines asked, “Who did this?” And they were told, “It was Samson, the son-in-law of the Timnite, who took Samson’s wife and gave her to his wedding companion.” Thereupon the Philistines came up and put her and her father to the fire. ", "Samson said to them, “If that is how you act, I will not rest until I have taken revenge on you.” ", "He gave them a sound and thorough thrashing. Then he went down and stayed in the cave of the rock of Etam.", "The Philistines came up, pitched camp in Judah and spread out over Lehi. ", "Those on Judah’s side asked, “Why have you come up against us?” They answered, “We have come to take Samson prisoner, and to do to him as he did to us.” ", "Thereupon three thousand Judahites went down to the cave of the rock of Etam, and they said to Samson, “You knew that the Philistines rule over us; why have you done this to us?” He replied, “As they did to me, so I did to them.” ", "“We have come down,” they told him, “to take you prisoner and to hand you over to the Philistines.” “But swear to me,” said Samson to them, “that you yourselves will not attack me.” ", "“We won’t,” they replied. “We will only take you prisoner and hand you over to them; we will not slay you.” So they bound him with two new ropes and brought him up from the rock.", "When he reached Lehi, the Philistines came shouting to meet him. Thereupon the spirit of GOD gripped him, and the ropes on his arms became like flax that catches fire; the bonds melted off his hands. ", "He came upon a fresh jawbone of a donkey and he picked it up; and with it he killed a thousand men.", "Then Samson said:
“With the jaw of an ass,
Mass upon mass!
With the jaw of an ass
I have slain a thousand men.”
", "As he finished speaking, he threw the jawbone away; hence that place was called Ramath-lehi. ", "He was very thirsty and he called to GOD, “You Yourself have granted this great victory through Your servant; and must I now die of thirst and fall into the hands of the uncircumcised?” ", "So God split open the hollow that is at Lehi, and the water gushed out of it; he drank, regained his strength, and revived. That is why it is called to this day “En-hakkore of Lehi.”", "He led Israel in the days of the Philistines for twenty years."], ["Once Samson went to Gaza; there he met a prostitute and slept with her.", " The Gazites [learned] that Samson had come there, so they gathered and lay in ambush for him in the town gate the whole night; and all night long they kept whispering to each other, “When daylight comes, we’ll kill him.” ", "But Samson lay in bed only till midnight. At midnight he got up, grasped the doors of the town gate together with the two gateposts, and pulled them out along with the bar. He placed them on his shoulders and carried them off to the top of the hill that is near Hebron.", "After that, he fell in love with a woman in the Wadi Sorek, named Delilah. ", "The lords of the Philistines went up to her and said, “Coax him and find out what makes him so strong, and how we can overpower him, tie him up, and make him helpless; and we’ll each give you eleven hundred shekels of silver.”", "So Delilah said to Samson, “Tell me, what makes you so strong? And how could you be tied up and made helpless?” ", "Samson replied, “If I were to be tied with seven fresh tendons that had not been dried, I should become as weak as an ordinary man.” ", "So the lords of the Philistines brought up to her seven fresh tendons that had not been dried. She bound him with them, ", "while an ambush was waiting in her room. Then she called out to him, “Samson, the Philistines are upon you!” Whereupon he pulled the tendons apart, as a strand of tow comes apart at the touch of fire. So the secret of his strength remained unknown.", "Then Delilah said to Samson, “Oh, you deceived me; you lied to me! Do tell me now how you could be tied up.” ", "He said, “If I were to be bound with new ropes that had never been used, I would become as weak as an ordinary man.” ", "So Delilah took new ropes and bound him with them, while an ambush was waiting in a room. And she cried, “Samson, the Philistines are upon you!” But he tore them off his arms like a thread. ", "Then Delilah said to Samson, “You have been deceiving me all along; you have been lying to me! Tell me, how could you be tied up?” He answered her, “If you weave seven locks of my head into the web.” ", "And she pinned it with a peg and cried to him, “Samson, the Philistines are upon you!” Awaking from his sleep, he pulled out the peg, the loom, and the web.", "Then she said to him, “How can you say you love me, when you don’t confide in me? This makes three times that you’ve deceived me and haven’t told me what makes you so strong.” ", "Finally, after she had nagged him and pressed him constantly, he was wearied to death ", "and he confided everything to her. He said to her, “No razor has ever touched my head, for I have been a nazirite to God since I was in my mother’s womb. If my hair were cut, my strength would leave me and I should become as weak as an ordinary man.”", "Sensing that he had confided everything to her, Delilah sent for the lords of the Philistines, with this message: “Come up once more, for he has confided everything to me.” And the lords of the Philistines came up and brought the money with them. ", "She lulled him to sleep on her lap. Then she called in someone else, and she had him cut off the seven locks of his head; thus she weakened him and made him helpless: his strength slipped away from him. ", "She cried, “Samson, the Philistines are upon you!” And he awoke from his sleep, thinking he would break loose and shake himself free as he had the other times. For he did not know that GOD had departed from him. ", "The Philistines seized him and gouged out his eyes. They brought him down to Gaza and shackled him in bronze fetters, and he became a mill slave in the prison. ", "After his hair was cut off, it began to grow back.", "Now the lords of the Philistines gathered to offer a great sacrifice to their god Dagon and to make merry. They chanted,
“Our god has delivered into our hands
Our enemy Samson.”
", " When the people saw him, they sang praises to their god, chanting,
“Our god has delivered into our hands
The enemy who devastated our land,
And who slew so many of us.”
", "As their spirits rose, they said, “Call Samson here and let him dance for us.” Samson was fetched from the prison, and he danced for them. Then they put him between the pillars. ", "And Samson said to the boy who was leading him by the hand, “Let go of me and let me feel the pillars that the temple rests upon, that I may lean on them.” ", "Now the temple was full of men and women; all the lords of the Philistines were there, and there were some three thousand men and women on the roof watching Samson dance. ", "Then Samson called to GOD, “O Sovereign GOD! Please remember me, and give me strength just this once, O God, to take revenge of the Philistines, if only for one of my two eyes.” ", "He embraced the two middle pillars that the temple rested upon, one with his right arm and one with his left, and leaned against them; ", "Samson cried, “Let me die with the Philistines!” and he pulled with all his might. The temple came crashing down on the lords and on all the people in it. Those who were slain by him as he died outnumbered those who had been slain by him when he lived.", "His brothers and all his father’s household came down and carried him up and buried him in the tomb of his father Manoah, between Zorah and Eshtaol. He had led Israel for twenty years."]], "he": [["וַיֹּסִ֙יפוּ֙ בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל לַעֲשׂ֥וֹת הָרַ֖ע בְּעֵינֵ֣י יְהֹוָ֑ה וַיִּתְּנֵ֧ם יְהֹוָ֛ה בְּיַד־פְּלִשְׁתִּ֖ים אַרְבָּעִ֥ים שָׁנָֽה׃ {פ}

The text of MAM is fully documented. The complete introduction to the edition (Hebrew) explains the types of editorial decisions that have been made and the reasons for them (English abstract).

It is designed for readers, and as such it contains added elements to aid vocalization of the text.

Qamaz qatan is indicated by its designated Unicode character (alternatives are documented where traditions differ about its application).
The text of MAM is fully documented. The complete introduction to the edition (Hebrew) explains the types of editorial decisions that have been made and the reasons for them (English abstract). In addition, every word in the Bible about which there is some textual concern or ambiguity includes a documentation note; these notes can be viewed conveniently here.
