Judges 13:3 CPDV

¹  And again, the sons of Israel did evil in the sight of the Lord. And he delivered them into the hands of the Philistines for forty years.

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.'
