"And the angel of the LORD
appeared unto the woman, and said unto her, Behold now,
thou art barren, and bearest not: but thou shalt
conceive, and bear a son. Now therefore beware, I pray
thee, and drink not wine nor strong drink, and eat not
any unclean thing: For, lo, thou shalt conceive, and
bear a son; and no
razor shall come on his head: for the
child shall be a Nazarite unto God from the womb: and he
shall begin to deliver Israel out of the hand of the
Philistines."
- Judges 16:17-19

"That he told her all his heart,
and said unto her,
There hath not come a razor upon mine head;
for I have been a Nazarite unto God from my mother's
womb: if I be shaven, then my strength will go from me,
and I shall become weak, and be like any other man. And
when Delilah saw that he had told her all his heart, she
sent and called for the lords of the Philistines,
saying, Come up this once, for he hath shewed me all his
heart. Then the lords of the Philistines came up unto
her, and brought money in their hand. And she made him
sleep upon her knees; and she called for a man, and she
caused him to shave off the seven locks of his head; and
she began to afflict him, and his strength went from
him."
- 1 Sam. 1:9-11
-
"So Hannah rose up after they
had eaten in Shiloh, and after they had drunk. Now Eli
the priest sat upon a seat by a post of the temple of
the LORD. And she was in bitterness of soul, and prayed
unto the LORD, and wept sore. And she vowed a vow, and
said, O LORD of hosts, if thou wilt indeed look on the
affliction of thine handmaid, and remember me, and not
forget thine handmaid, but wilt give unto thine handmaid
a man child, then I will give him unto the LORD all the
days of his life, and
there shall no razor come upon his head."
