|
|
17. And Manoah said unto the angel of the LORD, What is thy name, that when thy words come to pass we may do thee honour?

|
18. And the angel of the LORD said unto him, Wherefore askest thou after my name, seeing it is wonderful?
|
18. And the angel H4397 of the LORD H3068 said H559 unto him, Why H4100 askest H7592 thou thus H2088 after my name H8034 , seeing it H1931 is secret H6383 ?

|
23. But his wife said unto him, If the LORD were pleased to kill us, he would not have received a burnt offering and a meal offering at our hand, neither would he have shewed us all these things, nor would at this time have told us such things as these.
|
23. But his wife H802 said H559 unto him, If H3863 the LORD H3068 were pleased H2654 to kill H4191 us , he would not H3808 have received H3947 a burnt offering H5930 and a meat offering H4503 at our hands H4480 H3027 , neither H3808 would he have showed H7200 us H853 all H3605 these H428 things , nor H3808 would as at this time H6256 have told H8085 us such things as these H2063 .
