History
Delilah was the lover of the strongest man in the world, Samson. The Philistines were the enemies of Samson who were always defeated by Samson because of his godlike strength and they feared him. The lords of the Philistines wanted to know were Samson got this monstrous strength and how to defeat him. The lords knew about Delilah's relationship with Samson and they approached Delilah and made a deal with her: If she can find out the secret behind Samson's strength, each of them will give her eleven hundred pieces of silver. Delilah immediately agreed. Delilah approached Samson three times to ask him his secret, and three times he gave her false answers. However, he gave her his true answer on the fourth time by telling her that he did not cut his hair in fulfillment of a vow he made to God. As Samson was asleep, Delilah cut seven pieces of Samson's locks so that she can explain to the lords the secret and she was awarded and Samson was captured by the Philistines to be taken as prisoner and he had his eyes put out.
