And she said, The Philistines be upon thee, Samson. And he awoke out of his sleep, and said, I will go out as at other times before, and shake myself. And he wist not that the LORD was departed from him.

Verse 20 is found in chapter 16 of Judges. Delilah accuses Samson of not loving her because he has not revealed his secret. Finally he opens his heart and explains the connection between his hair and his consecration from the womb. Delilah puts him to sleep, his hair is cut, and the Philistines capture him. The text soberly emphasizes that the Lord has departed from him. The loss of strength is presented as the consequence of violating the condition associated with his consecration.

Und sie sprach zu ihm: Philister über dir, Simson! Da er nun aus seinem Schlaf erwachte, gedachte er: Ich will ausgehen, wie ich mehrmals getan habe, ich will mich losreißen; und wußte nicht, daß der HERR von ihm gewichen war.
Y díjole: ¡Samsón, los Filisteos sobre ti! Y luego que despertó él de su sueño, se dijo: Esta vez saldré como las otras, y me escaparé: no sabiendo que Jehová ya se había de él apartado.
Ella gritó: «¡Sansón, los filisteos vienen contra ti!». Él despertó de su sueño y dijo: «Saldré como las otras veces y me sacudiré». Pero no sabía que Jehová se había apartado de él.
Elle dit alors: Les Philistins sont sur toi, Samson! Et il se réveilla de son sommeil, et dit: Je m'en tirerai comme les autres fois, et je me dégagerai. Il ne savait pas que l'Eternel s'était retiré de lui.
Allora ella gli disse: O Sansone, i Filistei ti sono addosso. Ed egli, risvegliatosi dal suo sonno, disse: Io uscirò come l’altre volte, e mi riscoterò; ma egli non sapeva che il Signore si era partito da lui.
E disse ela: Os filisteus vêm sobre ti, Sansão. E despertou ele do seu sono, e disse: Sairei ainda esta vez como dantes, e me sacudirei. Porque ele não sabia que já o SENHOR se tinha retirado dele.
大利拉 說:「 參孫 , 非利士 人來捉你了!」 參孫 從睡中醒來,說:「我要像前幾次一樣脫身而去。」他卻不知道耶和華已經離開他了。
