Judges 16:9

Those who were lying in wait for him were in the inner chamber. She then said to him, "The Philistines are upon you, Hos!" He tore the [thick, strong] ropes as if they were flax when it is scorched by fire [which becomes hot and begins to smell burnt, then it breaks easily], but he did not reveal [the secret behind] his strength. [See Judg. 15:14 about flax.]

καὶ τὸ ἔνεδρον αὐτῇ ἐκάθητο ἐν τῷ ταμιείῳ καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ ἀλλόφυλοι ἐπὶ σέ Σαμψων καὶ διέσπασεν τὰς νευρέας ὡς εἴ τις ἀποσπάσοι στρέμμα στιππύου ἐν τῷ ὀσφρανθῆναι αὐτὸ πυρός καὶ οὐκ ἐγνώσθη ἡ ἰσχὺς αὐτοῦ
