Joshua 2:3

Then the king of Jericho sent this order to Rahab (Hebr. Rachav): "Hand over the men who came to you (your clients), those who came to your house, for they are here to explore the land." [In the Hebrew text, there is a sexual allusion to "came to you," which is probably why the Hebrew author adds "who came to your house," to clarify that they did not purchase her services.]
