13
And the angel of the Lord said to Manoe, Of all things concerning which I spoke to the woman, she shall beware.
14
She shall eat of nothing that comes of the vine yielding wine, and let her not drink wine or strong liquor, and let her not eat anything unclean: all things that I have charged her she shall observe.
15
And Manoe said to the angel of the Lord, Let us detain thee here, and prepare before thee a kid of the goats.
16
And the angel of the Lord said to Manoe, If thou shouldest detain me, I will not eat of thy bread; and if thou wouldest offer a whole-burnt-offering, to the Lord thou shalt offer it: for Manoe knew not that he an angel of the Lord.
17
And Manoe said to the angel of the Lord, What thy name, that thy word shall come to pass, we may glorify thee?
18
And the angel of the Lord said to him, Why dost thou thus ask after my name; whereas it is wonderful?
19
And Manoe took a kid of the goats and its meat-offering, and offered it on the rock to the Lord; and wrought a distinct work, and Manoe and his wife were looking on.
20
And it came to pass when the flame went up above the altar toward heaven, that the angel of the Lord went up in the flame; and Manoe and his wife were looking, and they fell upon their face to the earth.
21
And the angel appeared no more to Manoe and to his wife: then Manoe knew that this an angel of the Lord.
22
And Manoe said to his wife, We shall surely die, because we have seen God.
23
But his wife said to him, If the Lord were pleased to slay us, he would not have received of our hand a whole-burnt-offering and a meat-offering; and he would not have shewn us all these things, neither would he have caused us to hear all these things
