Jacob sent messengers before him to Esau his brother, unto the land of Seir and the field of Edom. And he commanded them, saying, "See that ye speak after this manner to my LORD Esau, 'thy servant, Jacob, sayeth thus: I have sojourned and been a stranger with Laban unto this time; and have gotten oxen, asses and sheep, menservants and womenservants, and have sent to show it my lord, that I may find grace in thy sight.'" read more.
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." 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, and said, "If Esau come to the one part and smite it, the other may save itself." And Jacob said, "O God of my father Abraham, and God of my father Isaac: LORD, which saidest unto me, 'return unto thy country and to thy kindred, and I will deal well with thee.' I am not worthy of the least of all the mercies and truth which thou hast showed unto thy servant. For with my staff came I over this Jordan, and now have I gotten two droves. Deliver me from the hands of my brother Esau, for I fear him: lest he will come and smite the mother with the children. Thou saidest that thou wouldest surely do me good, and wouldest make my seed as the sand of the sea which can not be numbered for multitude." And he tarried there that same night, and took of that which came to hand, a present, unto Esau his brother: Two hundred she goats and twenty he goats: two hundred sheep and twenty rams: thirty milch camels with their colts: forty cows and ten bulls: twenty she asses and ten foals and delivered them unto his servants, every drove by themselves, and said unto them, "Go forth before me, and put a space betwixt every drove." And he commanded the foremost, saying, "When Esau my brother meeteth thee and asketh thee, saying, 'whose servant art thou and whither goest thou, and whose are these that go before thee?' thou shalt say, 'they be thy servant Jacob's, and are a present sent unto my lord Esau, and behold, he himself cometh after us.'" And so commanded he the second, and even so the third, and likewise all that followed the droves, saying, "Of this manner see that ye speak unto Esau when ye meet him, and say moreover. 'Behold thy servant Jacob cometh after us.'" For he said, "I will appease his wrath with the present that goeth before me, and afterward I will see him myself, so peradventure he will receive me to grace." So went the present before him, and he tarried all that night in the tent, and rose up the same night and took his two wives and his two maidens and his eleven sons, and went over the ford Jabbok.
