Genesis 32

1 Jacob's vision at Mahanaim. 3 His message to Esau. 6 He is afraid of Esau's coming. 9 He prayeth for deliverance. 13 He sendeth a present to Esau. 24 He wrestleth with an angel at Peniel, where he is called Israel. 31 He halteth.

 32:1 ¶ And Jacob 3290 went 1980 z8804 on his way, 1870 and the angels 4397 of God 430 met 6293 z8799 him.

 32:2 And when x834 Jacob 3290 saw x7200 them, y7200 z8804 he said, 559 z8799 This x2088 [is] God's 430 host: 4264 and he called 7121 z8799 the name 8034 of that x1931 place 4725 Mahanaim. 4266

 32:3 And Jacob 3290 sent 7971 z8799 messengers 4397 before x6440 him y6440 to x413 Esau 6215 his brother 251 unto the land 776 of Seir, 8165 the country 7704 of Edom. 123

 32:4 And he commanded 6680 z8762 them, saying, 559 z8800 Thus x3541 shall ye speak 559 z8799 unto my lord 113 Esau; 6215 Thy servant 5650 Jacob 3290 saith 559 z8804 thus, x3541 I have sojourned 1481 z8804 with x5973 Laban, 3837 and stayed there 309 z8799 until x5704 now: x6258

 32:5 And I have x1961 oxen, 7794 and asses, 2543 flocks, 6629 and menservants, 5650 and womenservants: 8198 and I have sent 7971 z8799 to tell 5046 z8687 my lord, 113 that I may find 4672 z8800 grace 2580 in thy sight. 5869

 32:6 ¶ And the messengers 4397 returned 7725 z8799 to x413 Jacob, 3290 saying, 559 z8800 We came 935 z8804 to x413 thy brother 251 Esau, 6215 and also x1571 he cometh 1980 z8802 to meet x7125 thee, y7125 z8800 and four x702 hundred 3967 men 376 with x5973 him.

 32:7 Then Jacob 3290 was greatly y3966 afraid 3372 z8799 x3966 and distressed: 3334 z8799 and he divided 2673 z8799 x853 the people 5971 that x834 [was] with x854 him, and the flocks, 6629 and herds, 1241 and the camels, 1581 into two 8147 bands; 4264

 32:8 And said, 559 z8799 If x518 Esau 6215 come 935 z8799 to x413 the one 259 company, 4264 and smite x5221 it, y5221 z8689 then the other company 4264 which is left 7604 z8737 shall escape. 6413

 32:9 ¶ And Jacob 3290 said, 559 z8799 O God 430 of my father 1 Abraham, 85 and God 430 of my father 1 Isaac, 3327 the LORD 3068 which saidst 559 z8802 unto x413 me, Return 7725 z8798 unto thy country, 776 and to thy kindred, 4138 and I will deal well 3190 z8686 with x5973 thee:

 32:10 I am not worthy x6994 of the least y6994 z8804 of all x4480 x3605 the mercies, 2617 and of all x4480 x3605 the truth, 571 which x834 thou hast showed 6213 z8804 unto x853 thy servant; 5650 for x3588 with my staff 4731 I passed over 5674 z8804 x853 this x2088 Jordan; 3383 and now x6258 I am become x1961 two 8147 bands. 4264

 32:11 Deliver x5337 me, y5337 z8685 I pray thee, x4994 from the hand 3027 x4480 of my brother, 251 from the hand 3027 x4480 of Esau: 6215 for x3588 I x595 fear y3373 x3372 him, lest x6435 he will come 935 z8799 and smite x5221 me, y5221 z8689 [and] the mother 517 with 5921 the children. 1121

 32:12 And thou x859 saidst, 559 z8804 I will surely y3190 z8687 do thee good, 3190 z8686 x5973 and make 7760 z8804 x853 thy seed 2233 as the sand 2344 of the sea, 3220 which x834 cannot x3808 be numbered 5608 z8735 for multitude. 7230 x4480

 32:13 ¶ And he lodged 3885 z8799 there x8033 that same x1931 night; 3915 and took 3947 z8799 of x4480 that which came 935 z8802 to his hand 3027 a present 4503 for Esau 6215 his brother; 251

 32:14 Two hundred 3967 she goats, 5795 and twenty 6242 he goats, 8495 two hundred 3967 ewes, 7353 and twenty 6242 rams, 352

 32:15 Thirty 7970 milch 3243 z8688 camels 1581 with their colts, 1121 forty 705 kine, 6510 and ten 6235 bulls, 6499 twenty 6242 she asses, 860 and ten 6235 foals. 5895

 32:16 And he delivered 5414 z8799 [them] into the hand 3027 of his servants, 5650 every drove 5739 by themselves; x905 and said 559 z8799 unto x413 his servants, 5650 Pass over 5674 z8798 before x6440 me, y6440 and put 7760 z8799 a space 7305 between 996 drove 5739 and y996 drove. 5739

 32:17 And he commanded 6680 z8762 x853 the foremost, 7223 saying, 559 z8800 When x3588 Esau 6215 my brother 251 meeteth x6298 thee, y6298 z8799 and asketh x7592 thee, y7592 z8804 saying, 559 z8800 Whose x4310 [art] thou? x859 and whither x575 goest y3212 z8799 x1980 thou? and whose x4310 [are] these x428 before 6440 thee?

 32:18 Then thou shalt say, 559 z8804 [They be] thy servant 5650 Jacob's; 3290 it x1931 [is] a present 4503 sent 7971 z8803 unto my lord 113 Esau: 6215 and, behold, x2009 also x1571 he x1931 [is] behind x310 us. y310

 32:19 And so 1571 commanded x6680 he y6680 z8762 x853 the second, 8145 and x1571 x853 the third, 7992 and x1571 x853 all x3605 that followed 1980 310 z8802 the droves, 5739 saying, 559 z8800 On this x2088 manner 1697 shall ye speak 1696 z8762 unto x413 Esau, 6215 when ye find 4672 z8800 him.

 32:20 And say x559 ye y559 z8804 moreover, 1571 Behold, x2009 thy servant 5650 Jacob 3290 [is] behind x310 us. y310 For x3588 he said, 559 z8804 I will appease 3722 z8762 x6440 him y6440 with the present 4503 that goeth 1980 z8802 before x6440 me, y6440 and afterward 310 x3651 I will see 7200 z8799 his face; 6440 peradventure x194 he will accept 5375 z8799 x6440 of me. y6440

 32:21 So went 5674 z0 the present 4503 over y5674 z8799 before x5921 x6440 him: y6440 and himself x1931 lodged 3885 z8804 that x1931 night 3915 in the company. 4264

 32:22 And he rose up 6965 z8799 that x1931 night, 3915 and took 3947 z8799 x853 his two 8147 wives, 802 and his two 8147 womenservants, 8198 and his eleven 6240 259 sons, 3206 and passed over 5674 z8799 x853 the ford 4569 Jabbok. 2999

 32:23 And he took x3947 them, y3947 z8799 and sent them over 5674 z8686 x853 the brook, 5158 and sent over 5674 z8686 x853 that x834 he had.

 32:24 ¶ And Jacob 3290 was left 3498 z8735 alone; x905 and there wrestled 79 z8735 a man 376 with x5973 him until x5704 the breaking 5927 z8800 of the day. 7837

 32:25 And when he saw 7200 z8799 that x3588 he prevailed 3201 z8804 not x3808 against him, he touched 5060 z8799 the hollow x3709 of his thigh; 3409 and the hollow 3709 of Jacob's 3290 thigh 3409 was out of joint, 3363 z8799 as he wrestled 79 z8736 with x5973 him.

 32:26 And he said, 559 z8799 Let me go, 7971 z8761 for x3588 the day 7837 breaketh. 5927 z8804 And he said, 559 z8799 I will not x3808 let thee go, 7971 z8762 except 518 x3588 thou bless 1288 z8765 me.

 32:27 And he said 559 z8799 unto x413 him, What x4100 [is] thy name? 8034 And he said, 559 z8799 Jacob. 3290

 32:28 And he said, 559 z8799 Thy name 8034 shall be called 559 z8735 no x3808 more x5750 Jacob, 3290 but x3588 x518 Israel: 3478 for x3588 as a prince hast thou power 8280 z8804 with x5973 God 430 and with x5973 men, y582 x376 and hast prevailed. 3201 z8799

 32:29 And Jacob 3290 asked 7592 z8799 [him], and said, 559 z8799 Tell 5046 z8685 [me], I pray thee, x4994 thy name. 8034 And he said, 559 z8799 Wherefore x4100 [is] it 2088 [that] thou dost ask 7592 z8799 after my name? 8034 And he blessed 1288 z8762 him there. x8033

 32:30 And Jacob 3290 called 7121 z8799 the name 8034 of the place 4725 Peniel: 6439 for x3588 I have seen 7200 z8804 God 430 face 6440 to x413 face, 6440 and my life 5315 is preserved. 5337 z8735

 32:31 And as x834 he passed over 5674 z8804 x853 Penuel 6439 the sun 8121 rose 2224 z8799 upon him, and he x1931 halted 6760 z8802 upon x5921 his thigh. 3409

 32:32 Therefore x5921 x3651 the children 1121 of Israel 3478 eat 398 z8799 not x3808 [of] x853 the sinew 1517 which shrank, 5384 which x834 [is] upon x5921 the hollow 3709 of the thigh, 3409 unto x5704 this x2088 day: 3117 because x3588 he touched 5060 z8804 the hollow 3709 of Jacob's 3290 thigh 3409 in the sinew 1517 that shrank. 5384
