Judges 16:17

JUB

NIV

17 <em>Therefore</em>, he told her all his heart and said unto her, A razor has never come upon my head, for I <em>am</em> a Nazarite of God from my mother’s womb. If I am shaven, then my strength will go from me, and I shall become weak and be like any <em>other</em> man.
17 So he told her everything. “No razor has ever been used on my head,” he said, “because I have been a Nazirite dedicated to God from my mother’s womb. If my head were shaved, my strength would leave me, and I would become as weak as any other man.”
