Judges 13:4-6
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
4 (A)Now, then, be careful to drink no wine or beer and to eat nothing unclean, 5 for you will conceive and bear a son. No razor shall touch his head, for the boy is to be a nazirite for God[a] from the womb. It is he who will begin to save Israel from the power of the Philistines.
6 The woman went and told her husband, “A man of God came to me; he had the appearance of an angel of God, fearsome indeed. I did not ask him where he came from, nor did he tell me his name.

New International Version
4 Now see to it that you drink no wine or other fermented drink(A) and that you do not eat anything unclean.(B) 5 You will become pregnant and have a son(C) whose head is never to be touched by a razor(D) because the boy is to be a Nazirite,(E) dedicated to God from the womb. He will take the lead(F) in delivering Israel from the hands of the Philistines.”
6 Then the woman went to her husband and told him, “A man of God(G) came to me. He looked like an angel of God,(H) very awesome.(I) I didn’t ask him where he came from, and he didn’t tell me his name.
