1 And Jacob <03290> lifted up <05375> (8799) his eyes <05869>, and looked <07200> (8799), and, behold, Esau <06215> came <0935> (8802), and with him four <0702> hundred <03967> men <0376>. And he divided <02673> (8799) the children <03206> unto Leah <03812>, and unto Rachel <07354>, and unto the two <08147> handmaids <08198>.
2 And he put <07760> (8799) the handmaids <08198> and their children <03206> foremost <07223>, and Leah <03812> and her children <03206> after <0314>, and Rachel <07354> and Joseph <03130> hindermost <0314>.
3 And he passed over <05674> (8804) before them <06440>, and bowed himself <07812> (8691) to the ground <0776> seven <07651> times <06471>, until he came near <05066> (8800) to his brother <0251>.
4 And Esau <06215> ran <07323> (8799) to meet him <07125> (8800), and embraced <02263> (8762) him, and fell <05307> (8799) on his neck <06677>, and kissed him <05401> (8799): and they wept <01058> (8799) .
5 And he lifted up <05375> (8799) his eyes <05869>, and saw <07200> (8799) the women <0802> and the children <03206>; and said <0559> (8799), Who are those <0428> with thee? And he said <0559> (8799), The children <03206> which God <0430> hath graciously given <02603> (8804) thy servant <05650>.
6 Then the handmaidens <08198> came near <05066> (8799), they and their children <03206>, and they bowed themselves <07812> (8691).
7 And Leah <03812> also with her children <03206> came near <05066> (8799), and bowed themselves <07812> (8691): and after <0310> came <05066> <00> Joseph <03130> near <05066> (8738) and Rachel <07354>, and they bowed <07812> (8691) themselves.
8 And he said <0559> (8799), What meanest thou by all this drove <04264> which I met <06298> (8804)? And he said <0559> (8799), These are to find <04672> (8800) grace <02580> in the sight <05869> of my lord <0113> .
9 And Esau <06215> said <0559> (8799), I have <03426> enough <07227>, my brother <0251>; keep that thou hast unto thyself.
10 And Jacob <03290> said <0559> (8799), Nay, I pray thee, if now I have found <04672> (8804) grace <02580> in thy sight <05869>, then receive <03947> (8804) my present <04503> at my hand <03027>: for therefore I have seen <07200> (8804) thy face <06440>, as though I had seen <07200> (8800) the face <06440> of God <0430>, and thou wast pleased with me <07521> (8799).
11 Take <03947> (8798), I pray thee, my blessing <01293> that is brought <0935> (8717) to thee; because God <0430> hath dealt graciously with me <02603> (8804), and because <03605> <00> I have <03426> enough <03605>. And he urged <06484> (8799) him, and he took <03947> (8799) it.
12 And he said <0559> (8799), Let us take our journey <05265> (8799), and let us go <03212> (8799), and I will go <03212> (8799) before thee.
13 And he said <0559> (8799) unto him, My lord <0113> knoweth <03045> (8802) that the children <03206> are tender <07390>, and the flocks <06629> and herds <01241> with young <05763> (8802) are with me: and if men should overdrive <01849> (8804) them one <0259> day <03117>, all the flock <06629> will die <04191> (8804).
14 Let my lord <0113>, I pray thee, pass over <05674> (8799) before <06440> his servant <05650>: and I will lead on <05095> (8691) softly <0328>, according as <07272> the cattle <04399> that goeth before me <06440> and the children <03206> be able to endure <07272>, until I come <0935> (8799) unto my lord <0113> unto Seir <08165>.
15 And Esau <06215> said <0559> (8799), Let me now leave <03322> (8686) with thee some of the folk <05971> that are with me. And he said <0559> (8799), What <04100> needeth it? let me find <04672> (8799) grace <02580> in the sight <05869> of my lord <0113>.
16 So Esau <06215> returned <07725> (8799) that day <03117> on his way <01870> unto Seir <08165>.
17 And Jacob <03290> journeyed <05265> (8804) to Succoth <05523>, and built <01129> (8799) him an house <01004>, and made <06213> (8804) booths <05521> for his cattle <04735>: therefore the name <08034> of the place <04725> is called <07121> (8804) Succoth <05523>.
18 And Jacob <03290> came <0935> (8799) to Shalem <08004>, a city <05892> of Shechem <07927>, which is in the land <0776> of Canaan <03667>, when he came <0935> (8800) from Padanaram <06307>; and pitched his tent <02583> (8799) before <06440> the city <05892>.
19 And he bought <07069> (8799) a parcel <02513> of a field <07704>, where he had spread <05186> (8804) his tent <0168>, at the hand <03027> of the children <01121> of Hamor <02544>, Shechem#s <07927> father <01>, for an hundred <03967> pieces of money <07192>.
20 And he erected <05324> (8686) there an altar <04196>, and called it <07121> (8799) Elelohe-Israel <0415>.
