Genesis 33:3-11
3But he himselfH1931 passedH5674 on aheadH6440 of them and 1bowedH7812 downH7812 to the groundH776 sevenH7651 timesH6471, untilH5704 he cameH5066 nearH5066 to his brotherH251.
4Then EsauH6215 ranH7323 to meetH7122 him and embracedH2263 him, and 2fellH5307 on his neckH6677 and kissedH5401 him, and they weptH1058. 5He liftedH5375 his eyesH5869 and sawH7200 the womenH802 and the childrenH3206, and saidH559, “3WhoH4310 are theseH428 with you?” So he saidH559, “4The childrenH3206 whomH834 GodH430 has graciouslyH2603 givenH2603 your servantH5650.” 6Then the maidsH8198 cameH5066 nearH5066 5with their childrenH3206, and they bowedH7812 downH7812. 7LeahH3812 likewiseH1571 cameH5066 nearH5066 with her childrenH3206, and they bowedH7812 downH7812; and afterwardH310 JosephH3130 cameH5066 nearH5066 with RachelH7354, and they bowedH7812 downH7812. 8And he saidH559, “WhatH4310 do you mean by 6allH3605 thisH2088 companyH4264 whichH834 I have metH6298?” And he saidH559, “7To findH4672 favorH2580 in the sightH5869 of my lordH113.” 9But EsauH6215 saidH559, “8I haveH3426 plentyH7227, my brotherH251; let whatH834 you haveH1961 be your own.” 10JacobH3290 saidH559, “NoH408, pleaseH4994, ifH518 nowH4994 I have foundH4672 favorH2580 in your sightH5869, then takeH3947 my presentH4503 from my handH3027, 9for I seeH7200 your faceH6440 as one seesH7200 the faceH6440 of GodH430, and you have receivedH7521 me favorablyH7521. 11PleaseH4994 takeH3947 my 1011giftH1293 whichH834 has been broughtH935 to you, 12becauseH3588 GodH430 has dealtH2603 graciouslyH2603 with me and becauseH3588 I haveH3426 13plentyH3605.” Thus he urgedH6484 him and he tookH3947 it.
