Genesis 33

[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] [19] [20] [21] [22] [23] [24] [25] [26] [27] [28] [29] [30] [31] [32] [33] [34] [35] [36] [37] [38] [39] [40] [41] [42] [43] [44] [45] [46] [47] [48] [49] [50]

GEN 33:1 And Jacob lifting up his eyes, saw Esau coming, and with him four hundred men: and he divided the children of Lia, and of Rachel, and of the two handmaids:
GEN 33:2 And he put both the handmaids and their children foremost: and Lia and her children in the second place: and Rachel and Joseph last.
GEN 33:3 And he went forward and bowed down with his face to the ground seven times until his brother came near.
GEN 33:4 Then Esau ran to meet his brother, and embraced him: and clasping him fast about the neck, and kissing him, wept.
GEN 33:5 And lifting up his eyes, he saw the women and their children, and said: What mean these? And do they belong to thee? He answered: They are the children which God hath given to me thy servant.
GEN 33:6 Then the handmaids and their children came near, and bowed themselves.
GEN 33:7 Lia also with her children came near, and bowed down in like manner, and last of all Joseph and Rachel bowed down.
GEN 33:8 And Esau said: What are the droves that I met? He answered: That I might find favor before my lord.
GEN 33:9 But he said: I have plenty, my brother, keep what is thine for thyself.
GEN 33:10 And Jacob said: Do not so I beseech thee, but if I have found favor in thy eyes, receive a little present at my hands: for I have seen thy face, as if I should have seen the countenance of God: be gracious to me,
GEN 33:11 And take the blessing, which I have brought thee, and which God hath given me, who giveth all things. He took it with much ado at his brother's earnest pressing him,
GEN 33:12 And said: Let us go on together, and I will accompany thee in thy journey.
GEN 33:13 And Jacob said: My lord, thou knowest that I have with me tender children, and sheep, and kine with young: which if I should cause to be overdriven, in one day all the flocks will die.
GEN 33:14 May it please my lord to go before his servant: and I will follow softly after him, as I shall see my children to be able, until I come to my lord in Seir.
GEN 33:15 Esau answered: I beseech thee, that some of the people at least, who are with me, may stay to accompany thee in the way. And he said: There is no necessity: I want nothing else but only to find favor, my lord, in thy sight.
GEN 33:16 So Esau returned, that day, the way that he came, to Seir.
GEN 33:17 And Jacob came to Socoth: where having built a house, and pitched tents, he called the name of the place Socoth, that is, Tents.
GEN 33:18 And he passed over to Salem, a city of the Sichemites, which is in the land of Chanaan, after he returned from Mesopotamia of Syria: and he dwelt by the town:
GEN 33:19 And he bought that part of the field, in which he pitched his tents, of the children of Hemor, the father of Sichem for a hundred lambs.
GEN 33:20 And raising an altar there, he invoked upon it the most mighty God of Israel.
