33:1 And
Jacob
lifted
up
his
eyes
and
looked,
and
behold,
Esau
was
coming,
and
four
hundred
men
with
him.
So
he
divided
the
children
among
Leah
and
Rachel
and
the
two
female
servants.
33:2 And
he
put
the
servants
with
their
children
in
front,
then
Leah
with
her
children,
and
Rachel
and
Joseph
last
of
all.
33:3 He
himself
went
on
before
them,
bowing
himself
to
the
ground
seven
times,
until
he
came
near
to
his
brother.
33:4 But
Esau
ran
to
meet
him
and
embraced
him
and
fell
on
his
neck
and
kissed
him,
and
they
wept.
33:5 And
when
Esau
lifted
up
his
eyes
and
saw
the
women
and
children,
he
said,
"Who
are
these
with
you"
Jacob
said,
"The
children
whom
God
has
graciously
given
your
servant."
33:6 Then
the
servants
drew
near,
they
and
their
children,
and
bowed
down.
33:7 Leah
likewise
and
her
children
drew
near
and
bowed
down.
And
last
Joseph
and
Rachel
drew
near,
and
they
bowed
down.
33:8 Esau
said,
"What
do
you
mean
by
all
this
company
that
I
met"
Jacob
answered,
"To
find
favor
in
the
sight
of
my
lord."
33:9 But
Esau
said,
"I
have
enough,
my
brother;
keep
what
you
have
for
yourself."
33:10 Jacob
said,
"No,
please,
if
I
have
found
favor
in
your
sight,
then
accept
my
present
from
my
hand.
For
I
have
seen
your
face,
which
is
like
seeing
the
face
of
God,
and
you
have
accepted
me.
33:11 Please
accept
my
blessing
that
is
brought
to
you,
because
God
has
dealt
graciously
with
me,
and
because
I
have
enough."
Thus
he
urged
him,
and
he
took
it.
33:12 Then
Esau
said,
"Let
us
journey
on
our
way,
and
I
will
go
ahead
of
you."
33:13 But
Jacob
said
to
him,
"My
lord
knows
that
the
children
are
frail,
and
that
the
nursing
flocks
and
herds
are
a
care
to
me.
If
they
are
driven
hard
for
one
day,
all
the
flocks
will
die.
33:14 Let
my
lord
pass
on
ahead
of
his
servant,
and
I
will
lead
on
slowly,
at
the
pace
of
the
livestock
that
are
ahead
of
me
and
at
the
pace
of
the
children,
until
I
come
to
my
lord
in
Seir."
33:15 So
Esau
said,
"Let
me
leave
with
you
some
of
the
people
who
are
with
me."
But
he
said,
"What
need
is
there
Let
me
find
favor
in
the
sight
of
my
lord."
33:16 So
Esau
returned
that
day
on
his
way
to
Seir.
33:17 But
Jacob
journeyed
to
Succoth,
and
built
himself
a
house
and
made
booths
for
his
livestock.
Therefore
the
name
of
the
place
is
called
Succoth.
33:18 And
Jacob
came
safely
to
the
city
of
Shechem,
which
is
in
the
land
of
Canaan,
on
his
way
from
Paddan-aram,
and
he
camped
before
the
city.
33:19 And
from
the
sons
of
Hamor,
Shechem's
father,
he
bought
for
a
hundred
pieces
of
money
the
piece
of
land
on
which
he
had
pitched
his
tent.
33:20 There
he
erected
an
altar
and
called
it
El-Elohe-Israel.
