OET (OET-RV) “Even if I stayed longer, I wouldn’t eat your food,” Yahweh’s messenger replied. “But if you wanted to prepare a burnt offering for Yahweh, you may offer it.” (Because Manoah didn’t know that the messenger had come from Yahweh.)
Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-condition-fact
אִם תַּעְצְרֵ֨נִי֙
if detain,me
The angel is speaking as if this were a hypothetical possibility, but he means that it is actually true. If your language does not state something as a condition if it is certain or true, and if your readers might think that what the angel is saying is not certain, then you could translate his words as an affirmative statement. Alternate translation: [I will wait while you prepare a meal, but]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche
בְּלַחְמֶ֔ךָ
in/on/at/with,food_of,your
The angel is using one kind of food, bread, to mean food in general. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [your food]

The author is giving the reason why Manoah invited the angel of Yahweh to stay for a meal even though the angel would not eat a meal. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could provide the reason at the time when Manoah makes his invitation. You could say in verse 15, “And Manoah said to the angel of Yahweh, not realizing who he was”
13:15-16 Manoah would only send a visitor on his way after providing a meal, in accord with eastern hospitality. The angel insisted that any food be given as a sacrifice to the Lord. That and his reluctance to eat (cp. Gideon’s visitor, 6:17-22) suggest that this was a theophany (an appearance of God). To that point, Manoah had failed to recognize his visitor’s divinity.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
