Judges 13:14-18 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

14. She must not eat anything that comes from the grapevine or drink wine or beer. And she must not eat anything unclean. Your wife must do everything I have commanded her.”

15. “Please stay here,” Manoah told Him, “and we will prepare a young goat for You.”

16. The Angel of the Lord said to him, “If I stay, I won’t eat your food. But if you want to prepare a burnt offering, offer it to the Lord.” For Manoah did not know He was the Angel of the Lord.

17. Then Manoah said to Him, “What is Your name, so that we may honor You when Your words come true? ”

18. “Why do you ask My name,” the Angel of the Lord asked him, “since it is wonderful.”
