Genesis 32:4-9
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 1stayedH309 untilH5704 nowH6258; 5and 2I haveH1961 oxenH7794, donkeysH2543, flocksH6629, and maleH5650 and femaleH8198 servantsH5650H8198; and I have sentH7971 messengers to tellH5046 my lordH113, 3so that I may findH4672 favorH2580 in your sightH5869.”’”
6And the messengersH4397 returnedH7725 to JacobH3290, sayingH559, “We cameH935 to your brotherH251 EsauH6215, and furthermoreH1571 4he is comingH1980 to meetH7122 you, and fourH702 hundredH3967 menH376 are with him.” 7Then JacobH3290 wasH3372 5greatlyH3966 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 6attacksH5221 it, then the companyH4264 which is leftH7604 will escapeH6413.”
9Then JacobH3290 saidH559, “7GodH430 of my fatherH1 AbrahamH85 and GodH430 of my fatherH1 IsaacH3327, LordH3068, who saidH559 to me, ‘8ReturnH7725 to your countryH776 and to your relativesH4138, and I will 9makeH3190 you prosperH3190,’
