Genesis 33:12-20

12And he saidH559, Let us take our journey, and go on, and I will go before thee. 13And he saidH559 to him, My lordH113 knowsH3045 that the childrenH3206 are tenderH7390, and the suckling sheepH6629 and kine are with me; and if they should overdrive them only oneH259 dayH3117, all the flockH6629 would dieH4191. 14Let my lordH113, I pray thee, passH5674 on before his servantH5650, and I will drive on at my ease according to the pace of the cattle that is before me, and according to the pace of the childrenH3206, until I comeH935 to my lordH113, to SeirH8165. 15And EsauH6215 saidH559, Let me now leave with thee [some] of the peopleH5971 that are with me. And he saidH559, What need? Let me findH4672 favour in the eyesH5869 of my lordH113. 16And EsauH6215 returnedH7725 that dayH3117 on his wayH1870 to SeirH8165. 17And JacobH3290 journeyed to SuccothH5523, and builtH1129 himself a houseH1004, and for his cattle he madeH6213 boothsH5521. ThereforeH3651 the nameH8034 of the placeH4725 was calledH7121 SuccothH5523. 18And JacobH3290 cameH935 safely [to the] cityH5892 ShechemH7927, which is in the landH776 of CanaanH3667, whenH834 he cameH935 from Padan-Aram; and he encampedH2583 before the cityH5892. 19And he boughtH7069 the portionH2513 of the fieldH7704 whereH834 he had spreadH5186 his tentH168, of the handH3027 of the sonsH1121 of HamorH2544, Shechem's fatherH1, for a hundredH3967 kesitahs. 20And there he setH5324 up an altarH4196, and calledH7121 it El-Elohe-Israel.
