| Judges 16:9 | Now [there were] men lying in wait, abiding with her in the chamber. And she said unto him, The Philistines [be] upon thee, Samson. And he brake the withs, as a thread of tow is broken when it toucheth the fire. So his strength was not known. |
| Isaiah 1:31 | And the strong shall be as tow, and the maker of it as a spark, and they shall both burn together, and none shall quench [them]. |
| Isaiah 43:17 | Which bringeth forth the chariot and horse, the army and the power; they shall lie down together, they shall not rise: they are extinct, they are quenched as tow. |
