32 : 1 Now as Jacob went on his way, the angels of God met him.
|
|
32 : 2 Jacob said when he saw them, "This is God`s camp." So he named that place Mahanaim.
|
|
32 : 3 Then Jacob sent messengers before him to his brother Esau in the land of Seir, the country of Edom.
|
|
32 : 4 He also commanded them saying, "Thus you shall say to my lord Esau: `Thus says your servant Jacob, "I have sojourned with Laban, and stayed until now;
|
|
32 : 5 I have oxen and donkeys and flocks and male and female servants; and I have sent to tell my lord, that I may find favor in your sight."`"
|
|
32 : 6 The messengers returned to Jacob, saying, "We came to your brother Esau, and furthermore he is coming to meet you, and four hundred men are with him."
|
|
32 : 7 Then Jacob was greatly afraid and distressed; and he divided the people who were with him, and the flocks and the herds and the camels, into two companies;
|
|
32 : 8 for he said, "If Esau comes to the one company and attacks it, then the company which is left will escape."
|
|
32 : 9 Jacob said, "O God of my father Abraham and God of my father Isaac, O LORD, who said to me, `Return to your country and to your relatives, and I will prosper you,`
|
|
32 : 10 I am unworthy of all the lovingkindness and of all the faithfulness which You have shown to Your servant; for with my staff only I crossed this Jordan, and now I have become two companies.
|
|
32 : 11 Deliver me, I pray, from the hand of my brother, from the hand of Esau; for I fear him, that he will come and attack me and the mothers with the children.
|
|
32 : 12 For You said, `I will surely prosper you and make your descendants as the sand of the sea, which is too great to be numbered.`
|
|
32 : 13 So he spent the night there. Then he selected from what he had with him a present for his brother Esau:
|
|
32 : 14 two hundred female goats and twenty male goats, two hundred ewes and twenty rams,
|
|
32 : 15 thirty milking camels and their colts, forty cows and ten bulls, twenty female donkeys and ten male donkeys.
|
|
32 : 16 He delivered them into the hand of his servants, every drove by itself, and said to his servants, "Pass on before me, and put a space between droves."
|
|
32 : 17 He commanded the one in front, saying, "When my brother Esau meets you and asks you, saying, `To whom do you belong, and where are you going, and to whom do these animals in front of you belong?`
|
|
32 : 18 then you shall say, `These belong to your servant Jacob; it is a present sent to my lord Esau. And behold, he also is behind us.`"
|
|
32 : 19 Then he commanded also the second and the third, and all those who followed the droves, saying, "After this manner you shall speak to Esau when you find him;
|
|
32 : 20 and you shall say, `Behold, your servant Jacob also is behind us.`" For he said, "I will appease him with the present that goes before me. Then afterward I will see his face; perhaps he will accept me."
|
|
32 : 21 So the present passed on before him, while he himself spent that night in the camp.
|
|
32 : 22 Now he arose that same night and took his two wives and his two maids and his eleven children, and crossed the ford of the Jabbok.
|
|
32 : 23 He took them and sent them across the stream. And he sent across whatever he had.
|
|
32 : 24 Then Jacob was left alone, and a man wrestled with him until daybreak.
|
|
32 : 25 When he saw that he had not prevailed against him, he touched the socket of his thigh; so the socket of Jacob`s thigh was dislocated while he wrestled with him.
|
|
32 : 26 Then he said, "Let me go, for the dawn is breaking." But he said, "I will not let you go unless you bless me."
|
|
32 : 27 So he said to him, "What is your name?" And he said, "Jacob."
|
|
32 : 28 He said, "Your name shall no longer be Jacob, but Israel; for you have striven with God and with men and have prevailed."
|
|
32 : 29 Then Jacob asked him and said, "Please tell me your name." But he said, "Why is it that you ask my name?" And he blessed him there.
|
|
32 : 30 So Jacob named the place Peniel, for he said, "I have seen God face to face, yet my life has been preserved."
|
|
32 : 31 Now the sun rose upon him just as he crossed over Penuel, and he was limping on his thigh.
|
|
32 : 32 Therefore, to this day the sons of Israel do not eat the sinew of the hip which is on the socket of the thigh, because he touched the socket of Jacob`s thigh in the sinew of the hip.
