And the
children of
Israel did evil again in the
sight of the
LORD; and the
LORD delivered them into the
hand of the
Philistines forty years.

And there was a
certain man of
Zorah, of the
family of the
Danites, whose
name was
Manoah; and his
wife was
barren, and
bare not.

And the
angel of the
LORD appeared unto the
woman, and
said unto her, Behold now, thou art
barren, and
bearest not: but thou shalt
conceive, and
bear a
son.

Now therefore
beware, I pray thee, and
drink not
wine nor strong
drink, and
eat not any
unclean thing:

For, lo, thou shalt
conceive, and
bear a
son; and no
razor shall
come on his
head: for the
child shall be a
Nazarite unto
God from the
womb: and he shall
begin to
deliver Israel out of the
hand of the
Philistines.

Then the
woman came and
told her
husband, saying, A
man of
God came unto me, and his
countenance was like the
countenance of an
angel of
God, very terrible: but I
asked him not whence he was, neither
told he me his
name:

But he
said unto me, Behold, thou shalt
conceive, and
bear a
son; and now
drink no
wine nor strong
drink, neither
eat any
unclean thing: for the
child shall be a
Nazarite to
God from the
womb to the
day of his
death.

Then
Manoah intreated the
LORD, and
said,
O my
Lord, let the
man of
God which thou didst
send come
again unto us, and
teach us what we shall
do unto the
child that shall be
born.
