17He commandedH6680 the 1oneH7223 in frontH7223, sayingH559, “WhenH3588 my brotherH251 EsauH6215 meetsH6298 you and asksH7592 you, sayingH559, ‘To whomH4310 do you belong, and whereH575 are you goingH1980, and to whomH4310 do theseH428 animals in frontH6440 of you belong?’
18then you shall sayH559, ‘These belong to your servantH5650 JacobH3290; it is a presentH4503 sentH7971 to my lordH113 EsauH6215. And beholdH2009, he alsoH1571 is behindH310 us.’”
19Then he commandedH6680 alsoH1571 the secondH8145 and the thirdH7992, and allH3605 those who followedH1980H310 the drovesH5739, sayingH559, “After thisH2088 mannerH1697 you shall speakH1696 to EsauH6215 when you findH4672 him;
20and you shall sayH559, ‘BeholdH2009, your servantH5650 JacobH3290 alsoH1571 is behindH310 us.’” For he saidH559, “I will appeaseH3722H6440 him with the presentH4503 that goesH1980 beforeH6440 me. Then afterwardH310H3651 I will seeH7200 his faceH6440; perhapsH194 he will acceptH5375H6440 me.”
