32:13¶ And he lodged there that same night; and took of that which came to his hand a present for Esau his brother;

32:14Two hundred she goats, and twenty he goats, two hundred ewes, and twenty rams,

32:15Thirty milch camels with their colts, forty kine, and ten bulls, twenty she asses, and ten foals.

32:16And he delivered them into the hand of his servants, every drove by themselves; and said unto his servants, Pass over before me, and put a space betwixt drove and drove.

32:17And he commanded the foremost, saying, When Esau my brother meeteth thee, and asketh thee, saying, Whose art thou? and whither goest thou? and whose are these before thee?

32:18Then thou shalt say, They be thy servant Jacob’s; it is a present sent unto my lord Esau: and, behold, also he is behind us.

32:19And so commanded he the second, and the third, and all that followed the droves, saying, On this manner shall ye speak unto Esau, when ye find him.

32:20And say ye moreover, Behold, thy servant Jacob is behind us. For he said, I will appease him with the present that goeth before me, and afterward I will see his face; peradventure he will accept of me.

32:21So went the present over before him: and himself lodged that night in the company.

32:22And he rose up that night, and took his two wives, and his two womenservants, and his eleven sons, and passed over the ford Jabbok.

32:23And he took them, and sent them over the brook, and sent over that he had.
