He comes up, and tells his father and his mother, saying, “I have seen a woman in Timnah of the daughters of the Philistines. Now therefore get her for me as my wife.” Then his father and his mother say to him, “Isn’t there a woman among your brothers’ daughters, or among all my people, that you go to take a wife of the uncircumcised Philistines?” Samson says to his father, “Get her for me, for she pleases me well.” The text adds, “But his father and his mother didn’t know that it was of the LORD; for he sought an occasion against the Philistines.
