Don't fall in the hands of Delilah a poem by R.A. Jacob

Don't fall in the hands of Delilah, 

Samson's eyes were gouged out, 

Secrets are meant to be secret, 

Truth should never be out. 


You shouldn't end up as an entertainer, 

At the dagons house, 

World would ask for reasons,

The truth should never be out.


Antony will die for Cleopatra,

For Helen Troy was destroyed, 

Give not thy power to destroyer, 

Or everything shall be destroyed. 


My strength lies in my weakness, 

My strength lies in His love, 

My strength faileth never, 

My strength is His love. 

R. A. Jacob

Note:-

The story of Samson and Delilah is told in the Old Testament in the Bible, in Judges 16. Delilah is a Philistine woman who is bribed by the Philistine lords to discover the source of Samson's strength. Samson is a Nazirite and the final Judge of Israel, with supernatural strength given to him by God to do his work. Delilah tries three times to get Samson to reveal the secret of his strength, but he lies to her each time. Eventually, she persuades him to tell her that his strength comes from his hair, and while he is sleeping, she has a servant cut his hair and betrays him to the Philistines. The Philistines gouge out Samson's eyes and force him to grind grain in Gaza City, where his hair begins to grow back. When the Philistines take Samson to their temple of Dagon, Samson prays to God and regains his strength, allowing him to collapse the temple and kill himself and the Philistines.
