01:031:052 This heap be witness, and this pillar be
witness, that I will
not
pass over this heap to thee, and that thou shalt not
pass
over
this heap and this pillar unto me, for harm.
01:031:053 The God of Abraham, and the God of Nahor,
the God of their
father,
judge betwixt us. And Jacob sware by the fear
of his
father
Isaac.
01:031:054 Then Jacob offered sacrifice upon the mount,
and called his
brethren
to eat bread: and they did eat bread, and tarried
all
night
in the mount.
01:031:055 And early in the morning Laban rose up,
and kissed his sons
and
his daughters, and blessed them: and Laban departed,
and
returned
unto his place.
01:032:001 And Jacob went on his way, and the angels of God met him.
01:032:002 And when Jacob saw them, he said, This
is God’s host: and he
called
the name of that place Mahanaim.
01:032:003 And Jacob sent messengers before him to
Esau his brother unto
the
land of Seir, the country of Edom.
01:032:004 And he commanded them, saying, Thus shall
ye speak unto my
lord
Esau; Thy servant Jacob saith thus, I have sojourned
with
Laban,
and stayed there until now:
01:032:005 And I have oxen, and asses, flocks, and
menservants, and
womenservants:
and I have sent to tell my lord, that I may
find
grace in thy sight.
01:032:006 And the messengers returned to Jacob, saying,
We came to thy
brother
Esau, and also he cometh to meet thee, and four
hundred
men with him.
01:032:007 Then Jacob was greatly afraid and distressed:
and he divided
the
people that was with him, and the flocks, and herds,
and
the
camels, into two bands;
01:032:008 And said, If Esau come to the one company,
and smite it, then
the
other company which is left shall escape.
01:032:009 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:
01:032:010 I am not worthy of the least of all the
mercies, and of all
the
truth, which thou hast shewed unto thy servant; for
with
my
staff I passed over this Jordan; and now I am become
two
bands.
01:032:011 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.
01:032:012 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.
