Genesis:32:7-12

*
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 ;
*
And said ,
If Esau come to the one company ,
and smite it ,
then the other company which is left shall escape .
*
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 :
*
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 .
*
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 .
*
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 .
