Judges 13:2 in Context — Judges 13

1 Les enfants d’Israël firent encore ce qui déplaît à l’Éternel; et l’Éternel les livra entre les mains des Philistins, pendant quarante ans.

2 Il y avait un homme de Tsorea, de la famille des Danites, et qui s’appelait Manoach. Sa femme était stérile, et n’enfantait pas.

3 Un ange de l’Éternel apparut à la femme, et lui dit: Voici, tu es stérile, et tu n’as point d’enfants; tu deviendras enceinte, et tu enfanteras un fils.

4 Maintenant prends bien garde, ne bois ni vin ni liqueur forte, et ne mange rien d’impur.
