Shofetim 13:17-22 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

17. And Manoach said unto Malach Hashem, Mi shmehchah? That when thy devar come to pass we may do thee honor?

18. And the Malach Hashem said unto him, Why askest thou thus after my shem, seeing it is FELI (supremely wonderful [see Isa 9:5(6); Ex 15:11])?

19. So Manoach took a young goat with a minchah, and offered it upon the tzur unto Hashem; and wonderously did He act; and Manoach and his wife looked on.

20. For it came to pass, when the flame went up toward Shomayim from off the Mizbe'ach, that the Malach Hashem ascended in the flame of the Mizbe'ach. And Manoach and his wife looked on, and fell on their faces to the ground [cf Ac 1:9].

21. But the Malach Hashem did no more appear to Manoach and to his isha. Then Manoach knew that He was the Malach Hashem.

22. And Manoach said unto his isha, We shall surely die, because we have seen Elohim.
