2. Now there was a certain man from Zorah, and of the stock of Dan, whose name was Manoah, having a barren wife.
3. And an Angel of the Lord appeared to her, and he said: "You are barren and without children. But you shall conceive and bear a son.
4. Therefore, take care that you do not drink wine or strong drink. Neither shall you eat anything unclean.
5. For you shall conceive and bear a son, whose head no razor shall touch. For he shall be a Nazirite of God, from his infancy and from his mother's womb. And he shall begin to free Israel from the hand of the Philistines."
6. And when she had gone to her husband, she said to him: "A man of God came to me, having the countenance of an Angel, exceedingly terrible. And when I had inquired of him, who he was, and where he was from, and what name he was called, he was not willing to tell me.
