16 One day Samson went to Gaza and saw a prostitute there. He went in ·to spend the night with her [^Lto her; ^Ca euphemism for sexual relations]. ² When the people of Gaza heard, “Samson has come here!” they surrounded the place and ·waited for him [set an ambush; lay in wait] near the city gate all night. They whispered to each other, “·When dawn comes [At the morning light], we will kill Samson!”
