¶The .xv. Chapter.
1 But within a while after, in the time of wheat harvest, Samson visited his wife with a Kid, saying: I will go unto my wife into her chamber: but her father would not suffer him to go in. 2 And her father said: I had thought that thou haddest hated her: therefore gave I her to thy companion. Is not her younger sister fairer then she? Take her I pray thee in stead of the other. 3 And Samson said unto him: Now am I more blameless then the Philistines, and therefore will I do them displeasure.
1 BVt within a while after, in the time of wheate haruest, Samson visited his wife with a Kyd, saying: I wil go vnto my wife into her chamber: but her father would not suffer him to go in. 2 And her father sayde: I had thought that thou haddest hated her: therefore gaue I her to thy companion. Is not her younger syster fayrer then shee? Take her I praye thee in steede of the other. 3 And Samson sayd vnto hym: Nowe am I more blameles then the Philistines, and therfore wil I doo them displeasure.
This was the simplicity of those times, that the husband should bring unto his wife a Kid. It was a gift of reconcilement, to pacify his wife withal. In saying I have said. That is, I did firmly and constantly think. That doubting of words with the Hebrews, addeth a vehemency, which self thing we may see in that which followeth: In hating, thou diddest hate her, that is, thou diddest exceedingly hate her. The father in law seemeth to lay the fault in the Son in law. For it is as much as he should have said: Thou wast the cause, that I gave her unto an other.
