After the seven locks of his head are shaved, the Philistines lay hold on Samson and bring him down to Gaza

머리털이 밀리운 삼손을 블레셋 사람이 잡아 가사에 끌고 내려감

Judges 16:18–22: when Delilah sees that Samson has told her all his heart, she sends and calls for the lords of the Philistines, saying, “Come up this once, for he has told me all his heart.” Then the lords of the Philistines come up to her and bring the money in their hand. 16:19 says, “She made him sleep on her knees; and she called for a man and shaved off the seven locks of his head; and she began to afflict him, and his strength went from him.” She says, “The Philistines are upon you, Samson!” He awakes out of his sleep, and says, “I will go out as at other times, and shake myself free.” But he doesn’t know that the LORD had departed from him. The Philistines lay hold on him and put out his eyes; and they bring him down to Gaza and bind him with fetters of bronze; and he grinds at the mill in the prison. However, the hair of his head begins to grow again after he was shaved.
