Judges 13:10-17 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

10. So the woman ran quickly and told her husband, "Behold, the man who came the other day has appeared to me."

11. Then Manoah arose and followed his wife, and when he came to the man he said to him, "Are you the man who spoke to the woman?" And he said, "I am."

12. Manoah said, "Now when your words come to pass, what shall be the boy's mode of life and his vocation?"

13. So the angel of the Lord said to Manoah, "Let the woman pay attention to all that I said.

14. She should not eat anything that comes from the vine nor drink wine or strong drink, nor eat any unclean thing; let her observe all that I commanded."

15. Then Manoah said to the angel of the Lord, "Please let us detain you so that we may prepare a young goat for you."

16. The angel of the Lord said to Manoah, "Though you detain me, I will not eat your food, but if you prepare a burnt offering, then offer it to the Lord." For Manoah did not know that he was the angel of the Lord.

17. Manoah said to the angel of the Lord, "What is your name, so that when your words come to pass, we may honor you?"
