Genesis 33:12-20
12And he saidH559, Let us take our journeyH5265, and let us goH3212, and I will goH3212 before thee. 13And he saidH559 to him, My lordH113 knowethH3045 that the childrenH3206 are tenderH7390, and the flocksH6629 and herdsH1241 with youngH5763 are with me: and if men should overdriveH1849 them oneH259 dayH3117, all the flockH6629 will dieH4191. 14Let my lordH113, I pray thee, pass overH5674 beforeH6440 his servantH5650: and I will lead onH5095 slowlyH328, according asH7272 the cattleH4399 that go before meH6440 and the childrenH3206 are able to endureH7272, until I comeH935 to my lordH113 to SeirH8165.1 15And EsauH6215 saidH559, Let me now leaveH3322 with thee some of the peopleH5971 that are with me. And he saidH559, WhatH4100 needeth it? let me findH4672 graceH2580 in the sightH5869 of my lordH113.23
