9 God did what Manoah asked. The Messenger of God came back to his wife while she was sitting out in the fields. But her husband Manoah was not with her.
10 The woman ran quickly to tell her husband. She said, “The man who came to me the other day has just appeared to me ⌊again⌋.”
11 Manoah immediately followed his wife. When he came to the man, he asked him, “Are you the man who spoke to my wife?”“Yes,” he answered.
12 Then Manoah asked, “When your words come true, how should the boy live and what should he do?”
13 The Messenger of the Lord answered Manoah, “Your wife must be careful to do everything I told her to do.
14 She must not eat anything that comes from the grapevines, drink any wine or liquor, or eat any unclean food. She must be careful to do everything I commanded.”
15 Manoah said to the Messenger of the Lord, “Please stay while we prepare a young goat for you to eat.”
