Judges 16:15-17
Lexham English Bible

15 And she said to him, “How can you say, ‘I love you,’ when your heart is not with me? You have mocked me these three times, and you have not told me how your strength is so great.” 16 And because she nagged him day after day with her words, and pestered him, his soul grew impatient to the point of death.[a] 17 So he confided everything to her,[b] and he said to her, “A razor has never touched[c] my head, for I am a Nazirite of God[d] from birth.[e] If I am shaved my strength will leave me, and I will become weak, like everyone else.
