1 E foi Sansão a Gaza, e viu ali uma mulher prostituta, e se deitou com ela.

2 E foi dito aos de Gaza: Sansão veio aqui. E cercaram-no, e puseram-lhe espias toda aquela noite à porta da cidade: e estiveram calados toda aquela noite, dizendo: Até a luz da manhã; então o mataremos.

3 Mas Sansão dormiu até a meia noite; e à meia noite se levantou, e tomando as portas da cidade com seus dois pilares e seu ferrolho, lançou-as ao ombro, e foi-se, e subiu-se com elas ao cume do monte que está diante de Hebrom.
