Genesis 32:3-21

3Then JacobH3290 1sentH7971 messengersH4397 aheadH6440 of himself to his brotherH251 EsauH6215 in the landH776 of 2SeirH8165, the 3countryH7704 of 4EdomH112. 4He commandedH6680 them, sayingH559, “ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 you shall sayH559 to my lordH113 EsauH6215: ‘Your servantH5650 JacobH3290 saysH559 the followingH3541: “I have residedH1481 with LabanH3837, and 5stayedH309 untilH5704 nowH6258; 5and 6I haveH1961 oxenH7794, donkeysH2543, flocksH6629, and maleH5650 and femaleH8198 servantsH5650H8198; and I have sentH7971 messengers to tellH5046 my lordH113, 7so that I may findH4672 favorH2580 in your sightH5869.”’”

6And the messengersH4397 returnedH7725 to JacobH3290, sayingH559, “We cameH935 to your brotherH251 EsauH6215, and furthermoreH1571 8he is comingH1980 to meetH7122 you, and fourH702 hundredH3967 menH376 are with him.” 7Then JacobH3290 wasH3372 9greatlyH3966 afraidH3372 and distressedH6887; and he dividedH2673 the peopleH5971 whoH834 were with him, and the flocksH6629, the herdsH1241, and the camelsH1581, into twoH8147 companiesH4264; 8for he saidH559, “IfH518 EsauH6215 comesH935 to the oneH259 companyH4264 and 10attacksH5221 it, then the companyH4264 which is leftH7604 will escapeH6413.”

9Then JacobH3290 saidH559, “11GodH430 of my fatherH1 AbrahamH85 and GodH430 of my fatherH1 IsaacH3327, LordH3068, who saidH559 to me, ‘12ReturnH7725 to your countryH776 and to your relativesH4138, and I will 13makeH3190 you prosperH3190,’ 1014I amH6994 unworthyH6994 15of allH3605 the 16favorH2617 and of allH3605 the 17faithfulnessH571, whichH834 You have shownH6213 to Your servantH5650; for with only my staffH4731 I crossedH5674 thisH2088 JordanH3383, and nowH6258 I have becomeH1961 twoH8147 companiesH4264. 1118SaveH5337 me, pleaseH4994, 19from the handH3027 of my brotherH251, from the handH3027 of EsauH6215; for I fearH3372 him, that he will comeH935 and 20attackH5221 me and the 21mothersH517 with the childrenH1121. 12For You saidH559, ‘22I will assuredlyH3190 23makeH3190 you prosperH3190 and 24makeH7760 your 25descendantsH2233 as the sandH2344 of the seaH3220, whichH834 is tooH4480 greatH7230 to be countedH5608.’”

13So he spentH3885 the nightH3915 thereH8033. Then he 26selectedH3947 from what 27he hadH935 with him a 28giftH4503 for his brotherH251 EsauH6215: 14two hundredH3967 femaleH5795 goatsH5795 and twentyH6242 maleH8495 goatsH8495, two hundredH3967 ewesH7353 and twentyH6242 ramsH352, 15thirtyH7970 milkingH3243 camelsH1581 and their coltsH1121, fortyH705 cowsH6510 and tenH6235 bullsH6499, and twentyH6242 femaleH860 donkeysH860 and tenH6235 maleH5895 donkeysH5895. 16Then he placedH5414 them in the 29careH3027 of his servantsH5650, everyH5739 flockH5739 by itselfH905, and saidH559 to his servantsH5650, “PassH5674 onH5674 aheadH6440 of me, and putH7760 a spaceH7305 betweenH996 flocksH5739.” 17And he commandedH6680 the 30oneH7223 inH7223 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 giftH4503 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 flocksH5739, sayingH559, “In thisH2088 wayH1697 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 giftH4503 that goesH1980 aheadH6440 of me. Then afterwardH310H3651 I will seeH7200 his faceH6440; perhapsH194 he will acceptH5375H6440 me.” 21So the giftH4503 passedH5674 onH5674 aheadH5921H6440 of him, while he himselfH1931 spentH3885 that nightH3915 in the campH4264.
