Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
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.
World English Bible (WEB)
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.
Strong's King James
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)}.

Young's Literal Translation
And the ambush is abiding with her in an inner chamber, and she saith unto him, ‘Philistines are upon thee, Samson;’ and he breaketh the withs as a thread of tow is broken in its smelling fire, and his power hath not been known.
