Hakim-hakim 6:18

6:18 Do not leave this place until I come back ¹  with a gift ²  and present it to you.” The Lord said, “I will stay here until you come back.”

Hakim-hakim 13:15

13:15 Manoah said to the Lord’s messenger, “Please stay here awhile, ³  so we can prepare a young goat for you to eat.” ⁴ 

[6:18]  ¹ tn The Hebrew text adds “to you,” but this has not been included in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[6:18]  ² tn Heb “and I will bring out my gift.” The precise nuance of the Hebrew word מִנְחָה (minkhah, “gift”) is uncertain in this context. It may refer to a gift offered as a sign of goodwill or submission. In some cases it is used of a gift offered to appease someone whom the offerer has offended. The word can also carry a sacrificial connotation.

[13:15]  ³ tn Heb “Please allow us to detain you.”

[13:15]  ⁴ tn Heb “so we can prepare before you a young goat of the goats.”
