And it came to pass on the seventh day, that they said unto Samson's wife, Entice thy husband, that he may declare unto us the riddle, lest we burn thee and thy father's house with fire: have ye called us to take that we have? is it not so?

Verse 15 is found in chapter 14 of Judges. Samson’s wife obtains the answer after crying and pressuring him. Samson provides the thirty garments promised after receiving the solution, but the Spirit of the Lord comes upon him and he kills thirty men of Ashkelon to pay the debt. He then abandons his wife. The scene shows the vengeful nature of the cycle beginning: a personal dispute progressively becomes hostility between Samson and the Philistines.

E sucedeu que, ao sétimo dia, disseram à mulher de Sansão: Persuade a teu marido que nos declare o enigma, para que porventura não queimemos a fogo a ti e à casa de teu pai; chamastes-nos aqui para vos apossardes do que é nosso, não é assim?
