Genesis 33:12-16

12Then 1Esau saidH559, “Let’s journeyH5265 onH5265 and goH1980, and I will goH1980 aheadH5048 of you.” 13But he saidH559 to him, “My lordH113 knowsH3045 that the childrenH3206 are frailH7390 and that the flocksH6629 and herdsH1241 that are nursingH5763 are 2a matterH5921 ofH5921 concernH5921 to me. And if they are drivenH1849 hardH1849 just oneH259 dayH3117, allH3605 the flocksH6629 will dieH4191. 14PleaseH4994 let my lordH113 passH5674 onH5674 aheadH6440 of his servantH5650, and I will proceedH5095 at my leisureH328, at the paceH7272 of the cattleH4399 that are aheadH6440 of me and at the paceH7272 of the childrenH3206, untilH5704H834 I comeH935 to my lordH113 at 3SeirH8165.”

15Then EsauH6215 saidH559, “PleaseH4994 let me leaveH3322 with you someH4480 of the peopleH5971 whoH834 are with me.” But he saidH559, “4WhatH4100 need is there? 5Let me findH4672 favorH2580 in the sightH5869 of my lordH113.” 16So EsauH6215 returnedH7725 that dayH3117 on his wayH1870 to SeirH8165.
