Samson, the "Strong" Man.
Authors Note: I came up with this idea from my head. I was listening to the song "Hallelujah" on the "Shrek" soundtrack and a thought came into my head. Delilah was a B****. But that was just my opinion. So I just put some stuff into the story. I hope you like it! Please read & review.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Samson was a man. He was a strong man. A man of great strength who had killed many Philistines. Israel's enemies. But was Samson a smart man? Anyway. A woman named Delilah had tried three times to find the secret of Samson's strength. Only three times here. So she could sell the secret to his enemies. But each time, Samson told her off.
"Pfft! Like I'm going to tell you that!"
So. Delilah kept pestering and pestering Samson into telling her where he got his strength from. Every day.
"How can you say, 'I love you,' when you don't even trust me?" (How can you trust her?)
"Did I say that?"
"You haven't told me the secret of your great strength."
"And I'm not going to tell you."
"Arugh."
One day, he had enough. He finally told her where he got his strength.
"I have never had my hair cut. I have been set apart to God since I was born. If someone shaved my head, then I would lose my strength."
All I understood was the part where, you cut off his hair then his strength is gone. Anyway, why did he tell her that? Because, soon after that, Delilah sent a message to the kings of the Philistines. Trader. They brought the silver they had promised to give her.
One day, Delilah sent an invitation for him to come to her house. Suddenly, without him realizing it, two muscular guys jumped him from behind and bound him to a chair with very strong rope. She ordered one of the men to cut off the seven braids of Samson's hair.
"Delilah, you bitch! You cut off my hair! I hate you!"
"Harsh words."
"Go to hell!" All at once his strength left him.
Then, the Philistines captured Samson and tore out his eyes.
"My eyes! It burns! It burns." And they put him in prison and made him grind grain.
The kings of the Philistines gathered to celebrate. They were going to offer a great sacrifice to their god Dagon. They said, "Our god has given us Samson our enemy."
So they brought Samson from the prison. They made him stand between the pillars of the temple of Dagon.
Now the temple was full of men and women. All the kings of the Philistines were there. Then Samson prayed to the Lord. He said, "Lord God, remember me. God, please give me strength one more time. Let me pay these Philistines back for putting out my two eyes! And that bitch Delilah." Then Samson held the two pillars supported the whole temple. Samson said, "Let me die with these Philistines!" Then he pushed as hard as he could. And the temple fell on the kings and all the people in it. So Samson killed more of the Philistines when he died than when he was alive.
And then, the very next day, Delilah suddenly fell ill and died. No one really cared about her anyway.
Okay, that was basically it.
