Judges 13:2-7

2And there was a certainH259 manH376 of ZorahH6881, of the familyH4940 of the DanitesH1839, whose nameH8034 was ManoahH4495; and his wifeH802 was barrenH6135, and bareH3205 not. 3And the angelH4397 of YhwhH3068 appearedH7200 unto the womanH802, and saidH559 unto her, Behold now, thou art barrenH6135, and bearestH3205 not: but thou shalt conceiveH2029, and bearH3205 a sonH1121. 4Now therefore bewareH8104, I pray thee, and drinkH8354 not wineH3196 nor strong drinkH7941, and eatH398 not any uncleanH2931 thing: 5For, lo, thou shalt conceiveH2030, and bearH3205 a sonH1121; and no razorH4177 shall comeH5927 on his headH7218: for the childH5288 shall be a NazariteH5139 unto GodH430 from the wombH990: and he shall beginH2490 to deliverH3467 IsraelH3478 out of the handH3027 of the PhilistinesH6430.

6Then the womanH802 cameH935 and toldH559 her husbandH376, sayingH559, A manH376 of GodH430 cameH935 unto me, and his countenanceH4758 was like the countenanceH4758 of an angelH4397 of GodH430, veryH3966 terribleH3372: but I askedH7592 him not whence he was, neither toldH5046 he me his nameH8034: 7But he saidH559 unto me, Behold, thou shalt conceiveH2030, and bearH3205 a sonH1121; and now drinkH7941 no wineH3196 nor strong drinkH8354, neither eatH398 any uncleanH2932 thing: for the childH5288 shall be a NazariteH5139 to GodH430 from the wombH990 to the dayH3117 of his deathH4194.
