Judges 16:9

While the men were hidden in her room, she called out, “Samson, the Philistines are here!” But he snapped the bowstrings like a strand of yarn seared by a flame. So the source of his strength remained unknown.
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
Now she had an ambush waiting in the inner room. She said to him, “The Philistines are on you, Samson!” He broke the cords, as a string of tow is broken when it touches the fire. So his strength was not known.
World English Bible (WEB)
Now there were men lying in wait{H693}{(H8802)}, abiding{H3427}{(H8802)} with her in the chamber{H2315}. And she said{H559}{(H8799)} unto him, The Philistines{H6430} be upon thee, Samson{H8123}. And he brake{H5423}{(H8762)} the withs{H3499}, as a thread{H6616} of tow{H5296} is broken{H5423}{(H8735)} when it toucheth{H7306}{(H8687)} the fire{H784}. So his strength{H3581} was not known{H3045}{(H8738)}.
