Judges 13:15-20
New International Version
Judges 13:15-20
New International Version
15 Manoah said to the angel of the Lord, “We would like you to stay until we prepare a young goat(A) for you.”
16 The angel of the Lord replied, “Even though you detain me, I will not eat any of your food. But if you prepare a burnt offering,(B) offer it to the Lord.” (Manoah did not realize(C) that it was the angel of the Lord.)
17 Then Manoah inquired of the angel of the Lord, “What is your name,(D) so that we may honor you when your word comes true?”
18 He replied, “Why do you ask my name?(E) It is beyond understanding.[a]” 19 Then Manoah took a young goat, together with the grain offering, and sacrificed it on a rock(F) to the Lord. And the Lord did an amazing thing while Manoah and his wife watched: 20 As the flame(G) blazed up from the altar toward heaven, the angel of the Lord ascended in the flame. Seeing this, Manoah and his wife fell with their faces to the ground.(H)

Judges 13:15-20
King James Version
15 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.
16 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.
17 And Manoah said unto the angel of the Lord, What is thy name, that when thy sayings come to pass we may do thee honour?
18 And the angel of the Lord said unto him, Why askest thou thus after my name, seeing it is secret?
19 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.
20 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.
