Judges 13

13
1And the people of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] did evil again in the sight of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate); and the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) delivered them into the hand of the P’lishtim [Immigrants] forty years.
2And there was a certain man of Tzor’ah [Hornet], of the family of the Dani (Dan) [Judge], whose name [was] Manoach [Rest]; and his wife [was] barren, and bore not.
3And the angel of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) appeared unto the woman, and said unto her, Behold now, youi [are] barren, and bear not: but youi shall conceive, and bear a son.
4Now therefore beware, I pray youi, and drink not wine nor strong drink, and eat not any unclean [thing]:
5For, lo, youi shall conceive, and bear a son; and no razor shall come on his head: for the child shall be a Nazir [One Separated] unto God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] from the womb: and he shall begin to deliver Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] out of the hand of the P’lishtim [Immigrants].
6Then the woman came and told her husband, saying, A man of God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] came unto me, and his Countenance (Face, appearance; show favor) [was] like the Countenance (Face, appearance; show favor) of an angel of God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered], very terrible: but I asked him not from what place he [was], neither told he me his name:
7But he said unto me, Behold, youi shall conceive, and bear a son; and now drink no wine nor strong drink, neither eat any unclean [thing]: for the child shall be a Nazir [One Separated] to God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] from the womb to the day of his death.
8Then Manoach [Rest] entreated the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), and said, O my Lord, let the man of God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] which youi did send come again unto us, and teach us what we shall do unto the child that shall be born.
9And God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] listened to the voice of Manoach [Rest]; and the angel of God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] came again unto the woman as she sat in the field: but Manoach [Rest] her husband [was] not with her.
10And the woman made haste, and ran, and showed her husband, and said unto him, Behold, the man has appeared unto me, that came unto me the [other] day.
11And Manoach [Rest] arose, and went after his wife, and came to the man, and said unto him, [Are] youi the man that spoke unto the woman? And he said, I [am].
12And Manoach [Rest] said, Now let youi words come to pass. How shall we order the child, and [how] shall we do unto him?
13And the angel of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) said unto Manoach [Rest], Of all that I said unto the woman let her beware.
14She may not eat of any [thing] that comes of the vine, neither let her drink wine or strong drink, nor eat any unclean [thing]: all that I commanded her let her observe.
15And Manoach [Rest] said unto the angel of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), I pray youi, let us detain youi, until we shall have made ready a kid for youi.
16And the angel of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) said unto Manoach [Rest], Though youi detain me, I will not eat of youri bread: and if youi will offer a burnt offering, youi must offer it unto the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate). For Manoach [Rest] knew not that he [was] an angel of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate).
17And Manoach [Rest] said unto the angel of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), What [is] youri name, that when youri sayings come to pass we may do youi honour?
18And the angel of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) said unto him, Why ask youi thus after my name, seeing it [is] secret?
19So Manoach [Rest] took a kid with a meat offering, and offered [it] upon a rock unto the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate): and [the angel] did wondrously; and Manoach [Rest] and his wife looked on.
20For it came to pass, when the flame went up toward heaven from off the altar, that the angel of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) ascended in the flame of the altar. And Manoach [Rest] and his wife looked on [it], and fell on their faces to the ground.
21But the angel of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) did no more appear to Manoach [Rest] and to his wife. Then Manoach [Rest] knew that he [was] an angel of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate).
22And Manoach [Rest] said unto his wife, We shall surely die, because we have seen God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered].
23But his wife said unto him, If the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) were pleased to kill us, he would not have received a burnt offering and a meat offering at our hands, neither would he have showed us all these [things], nor would as at this time have told us [such things] as these.
24And the woman bore a son, and called his name Shimshon [Like the Sun]: and the child grew, and the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) Blessed (Favored by God; happy; prosperous) him.
25And the Spirit of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) began to move him at times in the camp of Dan [Judge] between Tzor’ah [Hornet] and Eshta’ol [Entreaty].
