01:032:013 And he lodged there that same night; and
took of that which
came
to his hand a present for Esau his brother;
01:032:014 Two hundred she goats, and twenty he goats,
two hundred ewes,
and
twenty rams,
01:032:015 Thirty milch camels with their colts, forty
kine, and ten
bulls,
twenty she asses, and ten foals.
01:032:016 And 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.
01:032:017 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?
01:032:018 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.
01:032:019 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.
01:032:020 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.
01:032:021 So went the present over before him:
and himself lodged that
night
in the company.
01:032:022 And he rose up that night, and took his
two wives, and his two
womenservants,
and his eleven sons, and passed over the ford
Jabbok.
01:032:023 And he took them, and sent them over the
brook, and sent over
that
he had.
01:032:024 And Jacob was left alone; and there wrestled
a man with him
until
the breaking of the day.
01:032:025 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.
01:032:026 And he said, Let me go, for the day breaketh.
And he said, I
will
not let thee go, except thou bless me.
01:032:027 And he said unto him, What is thy name? And he said, Jacob.
01:032:028 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.
01:032:029 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.
01:032:030 And Jacob called the name of the place
Peniel: for I have seen
God
face to face, and my life is preserved.
