Judges 14:9

---

← Judges 14:8	Judges 14:9 (KJV)	Judges 14:10 →
And after a time he returned to take her, and he turned aside to see the carcase of the lion: and, behold, [there was] a swarm of bees and honey in the carcase of the lion.	And he took thereof in his hands, and went on eating, and came to his father and mother, and he gave them, and they did eat: but he told not them that he had taken the honey out of the carcase of the lion.	So his father went down unto the woman: and Samson made there a feast; for so used the young men to do.
