And God gave ear to the voice of Manoah; and the angel of God came to the woman again when she was seated in the field; but her husband Manoah was not with her.
10
So the woman, running quickly, gave her husband the news, saying, I have seen the man who came to me the other day.
11
And Manoah got up and went after his wife, and came up to the man and said to him, Are you the man who was talking to this woman? And he said, I am.
12
And Manoah said, Now when your words come true, what is to be the rule for the child and what will be his work?
13
And the angel of the Lord said to Manoah, Let the woman take note of what I have said to her.
14
She is to have nothing which comes from the vine for her food, and let her take no wine or strong drink or anything which is unclean; let her take care to do all I have given her orders to do.
15
And Manoah said to the angel of the Lord, Now let us keep you while we make ready a young goat for you.
16
And the angel of the Lord said to Manoah, Though you keep me I will not take of your food; but if you will make a burned offering, let it be offered to the Lord. For it had not come into Manoah's mind that he was the angel of the Lord.
17
Then Manoah said to the angel of the Lord, What is your name, so that when your words come true we may give you honour?
18
But the angel of the Lord said to him, Why are you questioning me about my name, seeing that it is a wonder?
19
So Manoah took the young goat with its meal offering, offering it on the rock to the Lord, who did strange things.
