YLT
Young's Literal Translation
And the children
of Israel did
evil again
in the sight
of the
LORD;
and the
LORD
delivered
them into the hand of the Philistines forty years.
And the sons
of Israel add
to
do
the
evil thing
in the eyes
of Jehovah,
and Jehovah
giveth
them into the hand of the Philistines forty years.
And there was
a certain man of Zorah, of the family of the Danites
, whose
name was
Manoah ;
and
his wife was
barren, and bare
not .
And there is
a certain man of Zorah, of the family of the Danite
, and
his
name `is'
Manoah ,
his wife `is'
barren, and hath
not borne;
And the
angel
of the
LORD
appeared
unto the woman, and said
unto her, Behold
now
, thou art barren, and bearest
not :
but
thou shalt
conceive
, and
bear
a son.
and a
messenger
of Jehovah
appeareth
unto the woman, and saith
unto her, `Lo
, I
pray
thee,
thou `
art '
barren, and hast
not borne;
when
thou hast
conceived
, then
thou
hast
borne
a son.
Now therefore
beware
, I pray thee, and drink
not wine nor
strong drink, and eat
not any unclean thing :
And,
now, take
heed,
I pray thee, and do
not drink
wine ,
and
strong drink, and do
not eat
any unclean thing ,
For, lo, thou shalt
conceive,
and bear
a son ;
and no
razor shall
come
on his head :
for the
child
shall
be
a Nazarite unto
God from the womb :
and he shall
begin to deliver
Israel out of the hand of the Philistines.
for, lo, thou art
conceiving
and bearing
a son ,
and a
razor doth
not
go
up
on his head ,
for a Nazarite to
God is
the
youth
from the womb ,
and he doth
begin to save
Israel out of the hand of the Philistines. '
Then
the woman came
and told
her husband, saying, A man of God came
unto me, and his countenance
was
like
the countenance
of an
angel
of God, very terrible:
but
I asked him not
whence he was
, neither
told
he
me
his name :
And
the woman cometh
and speaketh
to
her husband, saying, `
A man of God hath
come
unto me, and his appearance
`is'
as
the appearance
of a
messenger
of God, very fearful,
and
I have
not
asked him whence he `is'
, and
his name he
hath
not
declared
to
me;
But
he said
unto
me, Behold
, thou shalt
conceive
, and bear
a son ;
and now drink no
wine nor
strong drink, neither
eat any unclean thing :
for the
child
shall
be
a Nazarite to God from the womb to
the day of his death.
and
he saith
to
me, Lo
, thou art
pregnant
, and bearing
a son ,
and now do
not
drink wine and
strong drink, and
do
not
eat any unclean thing ,
for a Nazarite to God is
the
youth
from the womb till
the day of his death. '
Then
Manoah intreated
the
LORD
, and said
, O my Lord, let
the man of God which
thou didst send come again unto us, and teach
us what we shall
do unto
the child
that
shall
be
born.
And
Manoah maketh
entreaty
unto
Jehovah
, and saith
, `
O ,
my Lord, the man of God whom
Thou didst send ,
let
him
come in,
I
pray
thee,
again unto us, and direct
us what we do to
the youth
who
is
born. '
And God hearkened
to the voice of Manoah ;
and the angel
of God came
again unto the woman as
she sat
in the
field :
but
Manoah her husband was
not with her .
And God hearkeneth
to the voice of Manoah ,
and the messenger
of God cometh
again unto the woman ,
and
she `is'
sitting
in a
field ,
and
Manoah her husband is
not with her ,
And the woman made
haste
, and ran
, and showed
her husband, and said
unto him, Behold
, the
man
hath appeared unto me ,
that
came unto me the
other
day
.
and the woman hasteth
, and runneth
, and declareth
to
her husband, and saith
unto him, `Lo
, he
hath appeared unto me --
the
man
who
came on
`that'
day
unto me. '
And Manoah arose
, and went
after his wife, and came
to
the man, and said
unto
him, Art thou the man that
spakest
unto the woman? And he said
, I am.
And Manoah riseth
, and goeth
after his wife, and cometh
unto
the man, and saith
to
him, `
Art thou the man who
spake
unto the woman? '
and he saith
, `
I `
am '
. '
And Manoah said
, Now let thy words come to pass .
How
shall
we
order
the child,
and how
shall
we
do
unto
him
?
And Manoah saith
, `
Now let thy words come to pass ;
what
is
the custom
of
the
youth
--
and his
work
? '
And the angel
of the
LORD
said
unto Manoah, Of all that I said unto the woman let her beware.
And the messenger
of Jehovah
saith
unto Manoah, `
Of all that I said unto the woman let her take
heed;
She
may
not
eat
of any
thing
that
cometh of
the vine, neither
let
her
drink
wine or
strong drink, nor
eat
any unclean thing :
all that I commanded her let
her
observe.
of anything
which
cometh out
from
the wine-
vine she
doth
not
eat
, and
wine and
strong drink she
doth
not
drink
, and
any unclean thing she
doth
not
eat;
all that I have
commanded her she
doth
observe. '
And Manoah said
unto the angel
of the
LORD,
I
pray
thee
, let us detain thee, until
we shall
have
made
ready
a kid for
thee
.
And Manoah saith
unto the messenger
of Jehovah
, `
Let us detain thee, we pray
thee,
and
prepare
before
thee
a kid of
the
goats
. '
And the angel
of the
LORD
said
unto Manoah, Though
thou detain me ,
I will
not eat of thy bread :
and if thou wilt
offer
a burnt offering ,
thou must
offer it unto
the
LORD.
For Manoah knew
not that he was
an
angel
of the
LORD
.
And the messenger
of Jehovah
saith
unto Manoah, `If
thou detain me --
I do
not eat of thy bread ;
and if thou prepare
a burnt -
offering --
to
Jehovah
thou dost
offer it ;'
for Manoah hath
not known
that He `is'
a
messenger
of Jehovah
.
And Manoah said
unto the angel
of the
LORD
, What is thy name ,
that
when thy sayings
come to pass we may
do
thee honor?
And Manoah saith
unto the messenger
of Jehovah
, `
What `
is '
thy name ?
when thy words
come to pass ,
then
we have
honoured
thee .'
And the angel
of the
LORD
said
unto
him, Why askest
thou thus
after
my name ,
seeing
it is secret?
And the messenger
of Jehovah
saith
to
him, `
Why `is'
this
--
thou dost
ask
for
My name ?
--
and
it `
is '
Wonderful.'
So
Manoah took
a
kid with
a
meat
offering
, and offered
it
upon
a
rock
unto
the LORD:
and the angel
did
wonderously;
and Manoah and his wife looked
on .
And
Manoah taketh
the
kid of
the
goats
, and the present,
and offereth
on
the rock
to
Jehovah,
and He
is
doing
wonderfully,
and
Manoah and his wife are
looking
on ,
For
it came
to pass, when
the flame
went
up toward
heaven
from off the altar, that the angel
of the
LORD
ascended
in the flame of the altar .
And Manoah and his wife looked
on it
, and fell
on their faces to the ground.
and
it cometh
to pass, in
the going
up of
the
flame
from off the altar toward
the
heavens
, that the messenger
of Jehovah
goeth
up
in the flame of the altar ,
and Manoah and his wife are
looking
on, and they
fall
on their faces to the earth,
But
the angel
of the
LORD
did
no
more
appear
to Manoah and to
his wife .
Then Manoah knew
that he was
an
angel
of the
LORD
.
and
the messenger
of Jehovah
hath
not
added
again
to appear
unto
Manoah ,
and unto
his wife ,
then hath
Manoah known
that He `is'
a
messenger
of Jehovah
.
And Manoah said
unto his wife, We shall
surely
die, because
we have seen God.
And Manoah saith
unto his wife, `
We certainly
die, for
we have seen God. '
But
his wife said
unto
him, If the
LORD
were pleased
to kill
us, he would
not have
received a
burnt offering and a
meat
offering
at
our
hands
, neither
would
he
have
showed
us all these things, nor would
as at this time have
told
us such
things
as
these
.
And
his wife saith
to
him, `
If Jehovah
were desirous
to put
us to
death
, He had
not received from
our
hands
burnt -
offering and present
, nor
shewed
us all these things, nor as `
at this '
time caused
us to
hear
`anything'
like
this
. '
And the woman bare
a son, and called
his name Samson :
and the child
grew
, and the
LORD
blessed
him .
And the woman beareth
a son, and calleth
his name Samson ,
and the youth
groweth
, and Jehovah
doth
bless
him ,
And the Spirit of the
LORD
began
to move him at
times
in the camp of Dan between Zorah and Eshtaol.
and the Spirit of Jehovah
beginneth
to move him in the camp of Dan ,
between Zorah and Eshtaol.
