9. And Elohim listened to the voice of Manowaḥ, and the Messenger of Elohim came to the woman again as she was sitting in the field, but Manowaḥ her husband was not with her.
10. And the woman ran hurriedly and informed her husband, and said to him, “See, He has appeared to me, the Man who came to me the other day!”
11. And Manowaḥ arose and went after his wife, and came to the Man, and he said to Him, “Are You the Man who spoke to this woman?” And He said, “I am.”
12. And Manowaḥ said, “Now let Your words come true! What is to be the rule for the youth’s life and his work?”
13. And the Messenger of יהוה said to Manowaḥ, “Let the woman guard all that I said to her.
14. “Let her not eat any food that comes from the vine, neither let her drink wine or strong drink, or eat any unclean food. Let her guard all that which I have commanded her.”
15. And Manowaḥ said to the Messenger of יהוה, “Please let us detain You, and prepare a young goat for You.”
16. And the Messenger of יהוה said to Manowaḥ, “Though you detain Me, I do not eat your food. But if you offer a burnt offering, offer it to יהוה.” For Manowaḥ did not know He was a Messenger of יהוה.
17. Then Manowaḥ said to the Messenger of יהוה, “What is Your name? When Your words come true, then we shall esteem You.”
18. And the Messenger of יהוה said to him, “Why do you ask My name, since it is wondrous?”
