1 And Jacob lifted up his eyes , and looked , and, behold, Esau came , and with him four hundred men . And he divided the children unto Leah , and unto Rachel , and unto the two handmaids . 2 And he put the handmaids and their children foremost , and Leah and her children after , and Rachel and Joseph hindermost . 3 And he passed over before them , and bowed himself to the ground seven times , until he came near to his brother . 4 And Esau ran to meet him , and embraced him, and fell on his neck , and kissed him : and they wept .
5 And he lifted up his eyes , and saw the women and the children ; and said , Who are those with thee? And he said , The children which God hath graciously given thy servant .1 6 Then the handmaidens came near , they and their children , and they bowed themselves . 7 And Leah also with her children came near , and bowed themselves : and after came Joseph near and Rachel , and they bowed themselves. 8 And he said , What meanest thou by all this drove which I met ? And he said , These are to find grace in the sight of my lord .2 9 And Esau said , I have enough , my brother ; keep that thou hast unto thyself.3 10 And Jacob said , Nay, I pray thee, if now I have found grace in thy sight , then receive my present at my hand : for therefore I have seen thy face , as though I had seen the face of God , and thou wast pleased with me . 11 Take , I pray thee, my blessing that is brought to thee; because God hath dealt graciously with me , and because I have enough . And he urged him, and he took it.4 12 And he said , Let us take our journey , and let us go , and I will go before thee. 13 And he said unto him, My lord knoweth that the children are tender , and the flocks and herds with young are with me: and if men should overdrive them one day , all the flock will die . 14 Let my lord , I pray thee, pass over before his servant : and I will lead on softly , according as the cattle that goeth before me and the children be able to endure , until I come unto my lord unto Seir .5 15 And Esau said , Let me now leave with thee some of the folk that are with me. And he said , What needeth it? let me find grace in the sight of my lord .67
16 So Esau returned that day on his way unto Seir . 17 And Jacob journeyed to Succoth , and built him an house , and made booths for his cattle : therefore the name of the place is called Succoth .8 18 And Jacob came to Shalem , a city of Shechem , which is in the land of Canaan , when he came from Padanaram ; and pitched his tent before the city .9 19 And he bought a parcel of a field , where he had spread his tent , at the hand of the children of Hamor , Shechem's father , for an hundred pieces of money .1011 20 And he erected there an altar , and called it Elelohe-Israel .12
