Genesis 33:2-7

2He put the female servants and their children first, then Leah and her children behind them, then Rachel and Joseph behind them.

3But he himself passed on ahead of them, and bowed to the ground seven times until he came near to his brother.

4But Esau ran to meet him, hugged him, fell on his neck and kissed him—and they wept.

5His eyes glanced up and he saw the women and the children, and said, “Who are these with you?” “The children whom God has graciously given your servant,” he said.

6Then the female servants approached, they and their children, and bowed down.

7Leah also approached, along with her children, and they bowed down, and finally, Joseph and Rachel approached and bowed down.
