Genesis 32:7

Jacob Fears Esau

⁶ And the messengers came again to Jacob, saying, "We came unto thy brother Esau, and he cometh against thee; and four hundred men with him." ⁷ Then was Jacob greatly afraid, and wist not which way to turn himself, and divided the people that was with him and the sheep, oxen and camels, into two companies, ⁸ and said, "If Esau come to the one part and smite it, the other may save itself."
