@ And
Jacob
went
on his
way
, and the
angels
of
God
met
him.
strkjv@Genesis:32:2
@ And when
Jacob
saw
them
, he
said
, This is
Gods
host
: and he
called
the
name
of that
place
Mahanaim
.
strkjv@Genesis:32:3
@ And
Jacob
sent
messengers
before
him
to
Esau
his
brother
unto the
land
of
Seir
, the
country
of
Edom
.
strkjv@Genesis:32:4
@ 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:
strkjv@Genesis:32:5
@ 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
.
strkjv@Genesis:32:6
@ 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.
strkjv@Genesis:32:7
@ 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
;
strkjv@Genesis:32:8
@ And
said
, If
Esau
come
to the
one
company
, and smite
it
, then the other
company
which is
left
shall
escape
.
strkjv@Genesis:32:9
@ 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:
strkjv@Genesis:32:10
@ 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
.
strkjv@Genesis:32:11
@ 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
.
strkjv@Genesis:32:12
@ 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
.
strkjv@Genesis:32:13
@ And he
lodged
there that same
night
; and
took
of that which
came
to his
hand
a
present
for
Esau
his
brother
;
strkjv@Genesis:32:14
@ Two
hundred
she
goats
, and
twenty
he
goats
, two
hundred
ewes
, and
twenty
rams
,
strkjv@Genesis:32:15
@
Thirty
milch
camels
with their
colts
,
forty
kine
, and
ten
bulls
,
twenty
she
asses
, and
ten
foals
.
strkjv@Genesis:32:16
@ 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
.
strkjv@Genesis:32:17
@ 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?
strkjv@Genesis:32:18
@ Then thou shalt
say
, They be thy
servant
Jacobs
; it is a
present
sent
unto my
lord
Esau
: and, behold, also he is behind
us
.
strkjv@Genesis:32:19
@ 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.
strkjv@Genesis:32:20
@ 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
.
strkjv@Genesis:32:21
@ So
went
the
present
over
before
him
: and himself
lodged
that
night
in the
company
.
strkjv@Genesis:32:22
@ And he rose
up
that
night
, and
took
his
two
wives
, and his
two
womenservants
, and his
eleven
H259
sons
, and passed
over
the
ford
Jabbok
.
strkjv@Genesis:32:23
@ And he took
them
, and sent them
over
the
brook
, and sent
over
that he had.
strkjv@Genesis:32:24
@ And
Jacob
was
left
alone; and there
wrestled
a
man
with him until the
breaking
of the
day
.
strkjv@Genesis:32:25
@ And when he
saw
that he
prevailed
not against him, he
touched
the hollw of his
thigh
; and the
hollow
of
Jacobs
thigh
was out of
joint
, as he
wrestled
with him.
strkjv@Genesis:32:26
@ And he
said
, Let me
go
, for the
day
breaketh
. And he
said
, I will not let thee
go
,
except
thou
bless
me.
strkjv@Genesis:32:27
@ And he
said
unto him, What is thy
name
? And he
said
,
Jacob
.
strkjv@Genesis:32:28
@ 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
.
strkjv@Genesis:32:29
@ 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.
strkjv@Genesis:32:30
@ And
Jacob
called
the
name
of the
place
Peniel
P@: for I have
seen
God
face
to
face
, and my
life
is
preserved
.
strkjv@Genesis:32:31
@ And as he passed
over
Penuel
the
sun
rose
upon him, and he
halted
upon his
thigh
.
strkjv@Genesis:32:32
@ 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
Jacobs
thigh
in the
sinew
that
shrank
