gone
on his way, and messengers
of God come
upon
him ;
And when
Jacob saw
them
, he said
, This is God's
host:
and he called
the name of that place Mahanaim
.
and Jacob saith
, when
he hath
seen
them
, `
This `
is '
the
camp
of
God;'
and he calleth
the name of that place `Two
Camps
. '

messengers before him to
Esau his brother unto
the land of Seir, the country

And he
commanded
them, saying, Thus shall
ye speak
unto

Thy servant Jacob saith

Thus do
ye say
to
my lord ,
to
Esau :
Thus
said
thy servant Jacob, With
Laban
I have sojourned, and I
tarry
until now ;

, and asses
, flocks
, and menservants
, and womenservants:
and I have
sent
to tell
my lord, that
I
may
find grace in thy
sight
.

We came in
unto
thy brother ,
unto

was
with him, and the flocks
, and herds
, and the camels, into two bands;
and
Jacob feareth
exceedingly,
and is
distressed ,
and he divideth
the people who
`are'
with him, and the flock
, and the
herd
, and the camels, into two camps,

, If Esau come to
the one company
, and smite
it ,
then the other
company
which is left shall
escape.

If Esau come in
unto
the one camp
, and have
smitten
it --
then the camp
which is left hath
been
for
an
escape. '
And Jacob said
, O
God of my father Abraham, and God of my father Isaac, the
LORD
which
saidst
unto me, Return
unto
thy country
, and to thy kindred, and I will
deal
well
with thee:
And Jacob saith
, `
God of my father Abraham, and God of my father Isaac, Jehovah
who
saith
unto me, Turn
back
to
thy land
, and to thy kindred, and I do
good
with thee:
I am
not
worthy
of
the
least
of all the mercies
, and of all the truth ,
which thou hast showed
unto
thy servant ;
for with my staff I passed over this Jordan ;
and now I am
become two bands
.
I have
been
unworthy
of all the kind
acts
, and of all the truth which Thou hast done
with
thy servant --
for ,
with my staff I passed over this Jordan ,
and now I have
become two camps
.
Deliver me, I pray thee, from the hand of my brother, from the hand of Esau: for I fear
him, lest
he will
come and smite
me ,
and
the
mother with
the
children.
`
Deliver me, I pray Thee, from the hand of my brother, from the hand of Esau: for I am
fearing
him, less
he come and have
smitten
me --
mother beside
sons;
And thou saidst
, I will
surely
do thee
good, and make
thy seed as the sand of the sea, which cannot
be
numbered for
multitude.
and Thou --
Thou
hast
said
, I certainly
do good with
thee
, and have
set
thy seed as the sand of the sea, which is
not
numbered because
of
the
multitude. '
And he lodged
there that same
night ;
and took
of
that which came
to
his hand a present for Esau his brother ;

there during
that night ,
and taketh
from
that which is
coming
into
his hand ,
a present for Esau his brother :

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.
and he giveth
into the hand of his servants, every drove by itself,
and saith
unto his servants, `
Pass over before me, and a space ye
do
put
between
drove and drove. '
And 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?
And he commandeth
the first
, saying, `
When Esau my brother meeteth thee, and hath
asked
thee, saying, Whose `
art '
thou? and whither goest thou? and whose `
are '
these before thee?
Then 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.
then thou hast
said
, Thy servant Jacob's :
it `
is '
a present sent to
my lord ,
to
Esau ;
and lo
, he also
`
is '
behind us. '
And 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 .
And he commandeth
also
the second, also
the third, also
all who
are
going
after
the droves, saying, `According
to
this manner do
ye speak unto Esau in
your
finding
him ,
And 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.
and ye have
said
also
, Lo
, thy servant Jacob `
is '
behind us ;'
for he said, `
I pacify
his
face
with the present which
is
going
before me, and afterwards
I see his face; it
may
be
he lifteth
up
my
face;'
So
went
the present over before him:
and himself
lodged that night in the company
.
and
the present passeth
over before his
face,
and he
hath
lodged during
that night in the camp
.

over the ford
Jabbok .

in
that night, and taketh
his two wives, and his two maid-servants
, and his eleven children
, and passeth
over the passage
of
Jabbok ;
And he took
them, and sent
them over the brook, and sent
over
that he had
.
and he taketh
them, and causeth
them to
pass
over the brook, and he
causeth
that which
he hath
to
pass
over
.
And Jacob was
left alone ;
and there
wrestled
a
man
with him until
the breaking
of the day.
And Jacob is
left alone ,
and one
wrestleth
with him till
the ascending
of the dawn;
And when
he saw
that he prevailed
not against
him, he touched
the hollow of his thigh ;
and the hollow of Jacob's thigh was
out
of
joint,
as
he
wrestled
with him .
and he seeth
that he is
not able
for
him, and
he cometh
against
the hollow of his thigh ,
and the hollow of Jacob's thigh is
disjointed
in
his
wrestling
with him ;
And he said
, Let
me go
, for the day
breaketh.
And he said
, I will
not
let
thee go
, except thou bless
me.
and he saith
, `Send
me away
, for the dawn
hath
ascended:'
and he saith
, `
I send
thee not
away
, except thou hast
blessed
me. '
And he said
unto him, What is thy name? And he said
, Jacob.
And he saith
unto him, `
What `
is '
thy name? '
and he saith
, `
Jacob. '
And he said
, Thy name shall
be
called
no more Jacob, but Israel :
for as
a prince hast
thou
power
with God and with men, and hast
prevailed
.
And he saith
, `
Thy name is
no more called
Jacob, but Israel ;
for thou
hast
been
a prince with God and with men, and dost
prevail
. '
And Jacob asked
him
, and said
, Tell
me
, I pray thee, thy name .
And he said
, Wherefore
is it
that
thou dost
ask
after
my name? And he blessed
him there.
And Jacob asketh
, and saith
, `Declare
, I pray thee, thy name ;'
and he saith
, `Why
`
is '
this,
thou askest
for
My name? '
and He blesseth
him there.
And Jacob called
the name of the place Peniel: for I have seen God face to
face, and my life is preserved.
And Jacob calleth
the name of the place Peniel: for `
I have seen God face unto
face, and my life is delivered;'
And as
he passed over Penuel the
sun
rose
upon
him
, and he halted
upon
his thigh .
and the
sun
riseth
on
him
when
he hath
passed over Penuel, and he is
halting
on
his thigh ;
Therefore the children
of Israel eat
not of
the sinew which shrank, which is upon
the hollow of the thigh, unto this day :
because he touched
the hollow of Jacob's thigh in
the sinew that
shrank.
therefore the sons
of Israel do
not eat
the sinew which shrank, which `
is '
on
the hollow of the thigh, unto this day ,
because He came
against
the hollow of Jacob's thigh ,
against
the sinew which
shrank.
