8. Manoah prayed to the Lord and said, “Please Lord, let the man of God you sent come again to us and teach us what we should do for the boy who will be born.”
9. God listened to Manoah, and the Angel of God came again to the woman. She was sitting in the field, and her husband Manoah was not with her.
10. The woman ran quickly to her husband and told him, “The man who came to me today has just come back! ”
11. So Manoah got up and followed his wife. When he came to the man, he asked, “Are You the man who spoke to my wife? ”“I am,” He said.
12. Then Manoah asked, “When Your words come true, what will the boy’s responsibilities and mission be? ”
13. The Angel of the Lord answered Manoah, “Your wife needs to do everything I told her.
14. She must not eat anything that comes from the grapevine or drink wine or beer. And she must not eat anything unclean. Your wife must do everything I have commanded her.”
15. “Please stay here,” Manoah told Him, “and we will prepare a young goat for You.”
16. The Angel of the Lord said to him, “If I stay, I won’t eat your food. But if you want to prepare a burnt offering, offer it to the Lord.” For Manoah did not know He was the Angel of the Lord.
