And Manoah said unto the angel of the LORD, What is thy name, that when thy sayings come to pass we may do thee honour?

And Manoah said unto the angel of Jehovah, What is thy name, that, when thy words come to pass, we may do thee honor?

And he said to him: What is thy name, that, if thy word shall come to pass, we may honour thee?

And Mano'ah said to the angel of the LORD, |What is your name, so that, when your words come true, we may honor you?|

And Manoah said to the angel of the LORD, What is thy name, that when thy sayings come to pass, we may do thee honor?

And Manoah saith unto the messenger of Jehovah, 'What is thy name? when thy words come to pass, then we have honoured thee.'

Then Manoah said to the angel of the Lord, What is your name, so that when your words come true we may give you honour?

Do thee honor - If applied to a man, it would be by gifts, such for instance as Balak promised to the prophet Balaam Numbers 22:17, and such as were usually given to seers 1-Samuel 9:7-8; 2-Kings 5:5, 2-Kings 5:15 : if to God, it would be by sacrifices Isaiah 43:23.

And Manoah said unto the angel of the Lord, what is thy name,.... Who art thou, and by what name art thou called? for since he could not prevail upon him to stay and eat a meal with him, he desired to know his name, and where he lived, that when he heard his name mentioned he might speak well of him, or send to him upon occasion; or if any message was sent from him, as Jarchi suggests, that he might show a respect to him, and observe it: and particularly:
that when thy sayings come to pass, we may do thee honour? say that such a prophet, whose name is such, and lives in such a place, foretold these things; or that they might send him a present, in gratitude for, and as a reward of his service and trouble; so the reward of a labourer, and the maintenance of a Gospel minister, is called "honour", 1-Timothy 5:17 and thus Josephus (o) understood it, that they might give him thanks, and send him a present.
(o) Antiqu. l. 5. c. 8. sect. 3.

Manoah said unto the angel . . ., What is thy name?--Manoah's request elicited the most unequivocal proofs of the divinity of his supernatural visitor--in his name "secret" (in the Margin, "wonderful"), and in the miraculous flame that betokened the acceptance of the sacrifice.

Manoah then asked his name: שׁמך מי, lit., "Who is thy name?" מי inquires after the person; מה, the nature of quality (see Ewald, 325, a.). "For if thy word come to pass, we will do thee honour." This was the reason why he asked after his name. כּבּד, to honour by presents, so as to show one's self grateful (see Numbers 22:17, Numbers 22:37; Numbers 24:11).

Honour - Either by making honourable mention of thee, or by shewing respect to thee, by a present, which they usually gave to prophets.
