21 But the angel of the LORD did no more appear to Manoah or to his wife. Then Manoah knew that he was the angel of the LORD.

22 And Manoah said unto his wife: 'We shall surely die, because we have seen God.'

23 But his wife said unto him: 'If the LORD were pleased to kill us, He would not have received a burnt-offering and a meal-offering at our hand, neither would He have shown us all these things, nor would at this time have told such things as these.'

24 And the woman bore a son, and called his name Samson; and the child grew, and the LORD blessed him.

25 And the spirit of the LORD began to move him in Mahaneh-dan, between Zorah and Eshtaol.
