פ
Again
the Israelites
did
evil
in the sight
of the LORD,
so He
delivered them
into the hand
of the Philistines
for forty
years.
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.

Now there was
a
man
from Zorah
named
Manoah,
from the clan
of the Danites,
whose wife was
barren
and had no
children.
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.

The angel
of the LORD
appeared
to
the woman
and said
to her,
“It is true
that you
are barren
and have no
children;
but you will conceive
and give birth to
a son.
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
please
be careful
not
to drink
wine
or strong drink,
and not
to eat
anything
unclean.
Now therefore beware,
I pray thee, and drink
not wine
nor strong drink,
and eat

For

For, lo, thou shalt conceive,

So the woman
went
and told
her husband,
“A man
of God
came
to me.
His appearance was like
the angel
of God,
exceedingly
awesome.
I did not
ask him
where
he came from,
and he did not
tell
me
his name.
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:

פ
But he said
to me,
‘Behold,
you will conceive
and give birth to
a son.
Now, therefore,
do not
drink
wine
or strong drink,
and do not
eat
anything
unclean,
because
the boy

But he said
unto me, Behold, thou shalt conceive,
and bear

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

Then Manoah
prayed
to
the LORD,
“Please,
O Lord,
let the man
of God
You sent us
come
to us
again
to teach us
how
to raise
the boy
who is to be born.”
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.

And God
listened
to the voice
of Manoah,
and the angel
of God
returned
to
the woman
as she
was sitting
in the field;
but her husband
Manoah
was not
with her.
And God
hearkened
to the voice
of Manoah;
and the angel
of God
came again
unto the woman
as she sat
in the field:
but Manoah
her husband
[was] not with her.
10

The woman
ran
quickly
to tell
her husband,
“Behold,
the man
who
came
to me
the other day
has reappeared!”
And the woman
made haste,
and ran,
and shewed
her husband,
and said
unto him, Behold, the man
hath appeared
unto me, that came
unto me the [other] day.
11

So Manoah
got up
and followed
his wife.
When he came
to
the man,
he asked,
“Are you
the man
who
spoke
to
my wife?”
“I
am,” he said.
And Manoah
arose,
and went
after
his wife,
and came
to the man,
and said
unto him, [Art] thou the man
that spakest
unto the woman?
And he said,
I [am].

Then Manoah
asked,
“When
your words
come to pass,
what
will be
the boy’s
rule of life
and mission?”
And Manoah
said,
Now let thy words
come to pass.
How shall we order
the child,
and [how] shall we do
unto him?
13

So the angel
of the LORD
answered
Manoah,
“Your wife
is to do
everything
I told her.
And the angel
of the LORD
said
unto Manoah,
Of all that I said
unto the woman
let her beware.

She must not
eat
anything
that
comes
from the vine,
nor drink
any wine
or strong drink,
nor
eat
anything
unclean.
She must do
everything
I have commanded her.”
She may not eat
of any [thing] that cometh
of the vine,
neither let her drink
wine

nor eat
any unclean
[thing]: all that I commanded
her let her observe.

“Please
stay here,”
Manoah
said
to the angel
of the LORD,
“and we will prepare
a young goat
for you.”
And Manoah
said
unto the angel
of the LORD,
I pray thee, let us detain
thee, until we shall have made ready
a kid
for
thee.

And the angel
of the LORD
replied,
“Even if
I stay,
I will not
eat
your food.
But if
you prepare
a burnt offering,
offer it
to the LORD.”
For
Manoah
did not
know that
it was
the angel
of the LORD.
And the angel
of the LORD
said
unto Manoah,
Though thou detain
me, I will not eat
of thy bread:
and if
thou wilt offer
a burnt offering,
thou must offer
it unto the LORD.
For Manoah
knew
not that he [was] an angel
of the LORD.

Then Manoah
said
to
the angel
of the LORD,
“What
is your name,
so that
we may honor you
when your word
comes to pass?”
And Manoah
said
unto the angel
of the LORD,
What [is] thy name,
that when thy sayings
come to pass
we may do thee honour?

“Why
do you ask
my name,”
said
the angel
of the LORD,
“since it
is beyond comprehension?”
And the angel
of the LORD
said
unto him, Why askest
thou thus after my name,
seeing it [is] secret?

Then Manoah
took
a young goat
and a grain offering
and offered them
on
a rock
to the LORD.
And as Manoah
and his wife
looked on,
the LORD did
a marvelous thing.
So Manoah
took
a kid
with a meat offering,
and offered
[it] upon a rock
unto the LORD:
and [the angel] did
wondrously;
and Manoah
and his wife
looked on.

When the flame
went up
from
the altar
to the sky,
the angel
of the LORD
ascended
in the
flame.
When Manoah
and his wife
saw this,
they fell
facedown
to the ground.
For it came to pass, when the flame
went up
toward heaven
from off the altar,
that the angel
of the LORD
ascended
in the flame
of the altar.
And Manoah
and his wife
looked on
[it], and fell on
their faces
to the ground.

And when the angel
of the LORD
did not
appear
again
to
Manoah
and
his wife,
Manoah
realized
that
it had been
the angel
of the LORD.
But the angel
of the LORD
did no more
appear
to Manoah
and to his wife.
Then Manoah
knew
that he [was] an angel
of the LORD.

“We are going to die,”

But his wife
replied,
“If
the LORD
had intended
to kill us,
He would not
have accepted
the burnt offering
and the grain offering
from our hands,
nor would He
have shown
us
all

But his wife
said
unto him, If

neither would he have shewed
us all these [things], nor would as at this time

gave birth to
