Judges 13:16-23
16And the angelH4397 of Jehovah saidH559 unto ManoahH4495, Though thou detainH6113 me, I will not eatH398 of thy breadH3899; and if thou wilt makeH6213 ready a burnt-offering, thou must offerH5927 it unto Jehovah. For ManoahH4495 knewH3045 not that he was the angelH4397 of Jehovah. 17And ManoahH4495 saidH559 unto the angelH4397 of Jehovah, What is thy nameH8034, that, when thy wordsH1697 comeH935 to pass, we may do thee honorH3513? 18And the angelH4397 of Jehovah saidH559 unto him, Wherefore askest thou after my nameH8034, seeing it is wonderful? 19So ManoahH4495 tookH3947 the kid with the meal-offering, and offeredH5927 it upon the rockH6697 unto Jehovah: and the angel did wondrously, and ManoahH4495 and his wifeH802 lookedH7200 on. 20For it came to pass, when the flameH3851 wentH5927 up toward heavenH8064 from off the altarH4196, that the angelH4397 of Jehovah ascended in the flameH3851 of the altarH4196: and ManoahH4495 and his wifeH802 lookedH7200 on; and they fellH5307 on their facesH6440 to the groundH776.
21But the angelH4397 of Jehovah did no more appearH7200 to ManoahH4495 or to his wifeH802. ThenH227 ManoahH4495 knewH3045 that he was the angelH4397 of Jehovah. 22And ManoahH4495 saidH559 unto his wifeH802, We shall surely dieH4191, because we have seenH7200 GodH430. 23But his wifeH802 saidH559 unto him, If Jehovah were pleasedH2654 to killH4191 us, he would not have receivedH3947 a burnt-offering and a meal-offering at our handH3027, neither would he have showedH7200 us all these thingsH428, nor would at this timeH6256 have told such thingsH428 as these.
