Judges 13:16-23

16But the angelH4397 of the LordH3068 saidH559 to ManoahH4495, “ThoughH518 you detainH6113 me, 1I will not eatH398 your 2foodH3899, but ifH518 you prepareH6213 a burntH5930 offeringH5930, offerH5927 it to the LordH3068.” For ManoahH4495 did not knowH3045 that he was the angelH4397 of the LordH3068. 17And ManoahH4495 saidH559 to the angelH4397 of the LordH3068, “3WhatH4310 is your nameH8034, so that when your wordsH1697 4are fulfilledH935, we may honorH3513 you?” 18But the angelH4397 of the LordH3068 saidH559 to him, “WhyH4100 do you askH7592 my nameH8034, for it is 56wonderfulH6383?” 19So 7ManoahH4495 tookH3947 the youngH1423H5795 goatH1423H5795 along with the grain offeringH4503 and offeredH5927 it on the rockH6697 to the LordH3068; and He performedH6213 wondersH6381 while ManoahH4495 and his wifeH802 lookedH7200 on. 20For it cameH1961 aboutH1961 when the flameH3851 wentH5927 upH5927 from the altarH4196 toward heavenH8064, that the angelH4397 of the LordH3068 ascendedH5927 in the flameH3851 of the altarH4196. When ManoahH4495 and his wifeH802 sawH7200 this, they 8fellH5307 on their facesH6440 to the groundH776.

21Now the angelH4397 of the LordH3068 did not appearH7200 to ManoahH4495 or his wifeH802 againH3254H5750. 9ThenH227 ManoahH4495 knewH3045 that he was the angelH4397 of the LordH3068. 22So ManoahH4495 saidH559 to his wifeH802, “10We will certainlyH4191 dieH4191, for we have seenH7200 GodH430.” 23But his wifeH802 saidH559 to him, “IfH3863 the LordH3068 had desiredH2654 to killH4191 us, He would not have acceptedH3947 a burntH5930 offeringH5930 and a grain offeringH4503 from our handsH3027, norH3808 would He have 11shownH7200 us allH3605 theseH428 thingsH428, norH3808 would He have let us hearH8085 things like thisH2088 at this timeH6256.”
