9And 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.
10So the woman, running quickly, gave her husband the news, saying, I have seen the man who came to me the other day.
11And 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.
12And Manoah said, Now when your words come true, what is to be the rule for the child and what will be his work?
13And the angel of the Lord said to Manoah, Let the woman take note of what I have said to her.
14She 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.
15And Manoah said to the angel of the Lord, Now let us keep you while we make ready a young goat for you.
16And 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.
17Then Manoah said to the angel of the Lord, What is your name, so that when your words come true we may give you honour?
18But the angel of the Lord said to him, Why are you questioning me about my name, seeing that it is a wonder?
19So Manoah took the young goat with its meal offering, offering it on the rock to the Lord, who did strange things.
20And when the flame went up to heaven from the altar, the angel of the Lord went up in the flame of the altar, while Manoah and his wife were looking on; and they went down on their faces to the earth.
21But the angel of the Lord was seen no more by Manoah and his wife. Then it was clear to Manoah that he was the angel of the Lord.
22And Manoah said to his wife, Death will certainly be our fate, for it is a god whom we have seen.
