The birth of Samson is in the book of Judges, chapter 13.
Samson's mother had never given birth before, and one day an angel of God came to her and said she will bear a child, and will name him Samson. Samson is to grow up a Nazirite, never to cut his hair and never to drink beer or wine and never to eat any forbidden fruit.
She told her husband Manoah, who prayed to God to have His angel visit again to tell him.
When the angel appeared, he offered the angel a meal. Instead, the angel said to offer the young goat as a sacrifice to God.
The angel went up with the flames up to Heaven. Manoah thought they were going to die, but his wife said he they were, they would've already done so.
And soon she gave birth to Samson, and the Lord's power was with him.
