Judges 13:3-5
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
3 And the [a]Angel of the Lord appeared to the woman and said to her, Behold, you are barren and have no children, but you shall become pregnant and bear a son.
4 Therefore beware and drink no wine or strong drink and eat nothing unclean.
5 For behold, you shall become pregnant and bear a son. No razor shall come upon his head, for the child shall be a Nazirite to God from birth, and he shall begin to deliver Israel out of the hands of the Philistines.
