The Wedding Feast and the Riddle

Judges 14:10-14

And his father goeth down unto the woman, and Samson maketh there a banquet, for so the young men do;

and it cometh to pass when they see him, that they take thirty companions, and they are with him.

And Samson saith to them, `Let me, I pray you, put forth to you a riddle; if ye certainly declare it to me in the seven days of the banquet, and have found it out, then I have given to you thirty linen shirts, and thirty changes of garments;

and if ye are not able to declare it to me, then ye have given to me thirty linen shirts, and thirty changes of garments.' And they say to him, `Put forth thy riddle, and we hear it!'

And he saith to them: `Out of the eater came forth meat, And out of the strong came forth sweetness;' and they were not able to declare the riddle in three days.
