with him, a present for Esau, his brother:
032:014 two hundred female goats and twenty male goats, two hundred
ewes and twenty rams,
032:015 thirty milk camels and their colts, forty cows, ten bulls,
twenty female donkeys and ten foals.
032:016 He delivered them into the hands of his servants, every herd
by itself, and said to his servants, "Pass over before me,
and put a space between herd and herd."
032:017 He commanded the foremost, saying, "When Esau, my brother, meets you,
and asks you, saying, 'Whose are you? Where are you going?
Whose are these before you?'
032:018 Then you shall say, 'They are your servant, Jacob's. It is a
present sent to my lord, Esau. Behold, he also is behind us.'"
032:019 He commanded also the second, and the third, and all that followed
the herds, saying, "This is how you shall speak to Esau,
when you find him.
032:020 You shall say, 'Not only that, but behold, your servant, Jacob,
is behind us.'" For, he said, "I will appease him with the present
that goes before me, and afterward I will see his face.
Perhaps he will accept me."
032:021 So the present passed over before him, and he himself lodged
that night in the camp.
032:022 He rose up that night, and took his two wives, and his two handmaids,
and his eleven sons, and passed over the ford of the Jabbok.
032:023 He took them, and sent them over the stream, and sent over
that which he had.
032:024 Jacob was left alone, and wrestled with a man there until
the breaking of the day.
032:025 When he saw that he didn't prevail against him, he touched
the hollow of his thigh, and the hollow of Jacob's thigh
