Judges 13:2-7

2And there was a certain manH376 of ZorahH6881, of the familyH4940 of the Danites, whose nameH8034 was ManoahH4495; and his wifeH802 was barrenH6135, and bare not. 3And the angelH4397 of Jehovah appearedH7200 unto the womanH802, and saidH559 unto her, Behold now, thou art barrenH6135, and bearest not; but thou shalt conceiveH2029, and bearH3205 a sonH1121. 4NowH6258 thereforeH6258 beware, I pray thee, and drinkH8354 no wineH3196 nor strongH7941 drinkH8354, and eatH398 not any uncleanH2931 thing: 5for, lo, thou shalt conceiveH2029, and bearH3205 a sonH1121; and no razor shall come upon his headH7218; for the child shall beH1961 a NaziriteH5139 unto GodH430 from the wombH990: and he shall beginH2490 to saveH3467 IsraelH3478 out of the handH3027 of the PhilistinesH6430. 6Then the womanH802 cameH935 and toldH5046 her husbandH376, sayingH559, A manH376 of GodH430 cameH935 unto me, and his countenance was like the countenance of the angelH4397 of GodH430, veryH3966 terrible; and I askedH7592 him not whence he was, neither toldH5046 he me his nameH8034: 7but he saidH559 unto me, Behold, thou shalt conceiveH2029, and bearH3205 a sonH1121; and nowH6258 drinkH8354 no wineH3196 nor strongH7941 drinkH8354, and eatH398 not any unclean thing; for the child shall beH1961 a NaziriteH5139 unto GodH430 from the wombH990 to the dayH3117 of his deathH4194.
