⁶ And Delilah saith unto Samson, `Declare, I pray thee, to me, wherein thy great power `is', and wherewith thou art bound, to afflict thee.'

² Vanity they speak each with his neighbour, Lip of flattery! With heart and heart they speak.

²⁶ For a harlot consumeth unto a cake of bread, And an adulteress the precious soul hunteth.

²¹ She turneth him aside with the abundance of her speech, With the flattery of her lips she forceth him.

¹⁴ A deep pit `is' the mouth of strange women, The abhorred of Jehovah falleth there.

²⁸ A lying tongue hateth its bruised ones, And a flattering mouth worketh an overthrow!

² Who doth give me in a wilderness A lodging-place of travellers? And I leave my people, and go from them, For all of them `are' adulterers, An assembly of treacherous ones.

³ And they bend their tongue, their bow `is' a lie, And not for stedfastness have they been mighty in the land, For from evil unto evil they have gone forth, And Me they have not known, An affirmation of Jehovah!

⁴ Each of his friend -- beware ye, And on any brother, do not trust, For every brother doth utterly supplant, For every friend slanderously doth walk,

⁵ And each at his friend they mock, And truth they do not speak, They taught their tongue to speak falsehood, To commit iniquity they have laboured.

² Perished hath the kind out of the land, And upright among men -- there are none, All of them for blood lie in wait, Each his brother they hunt `with' a net.

⁵ Believe not in a friend, trust not in a leader, From her who is lying in thy bosom keep the openings of thy mouth.
