Genesis 33:2-7
2He put the servants and their children in front, with Leah and her children behind them, and Rachel and Joseph behind them.
3But Jacob himself went on ahead of them, and he bowed toward the ground seven times as he approached his brother.
4But Esau ran to meet him, embraced him, hugged his neck, and kissed him. Then they both wept.
5When Esau looked up and saw the women and the children, he asked, “Who are these people with you?” Jacob replied, “The children whom God has graciously given your servant.”
6The female servants came forward with their children and bowed down.
7Then Leah came forward with her children and they bowed down. Finally Joseph and Rachel came forward and bowed down.
