1. וַיִּשָּׂא יַעֲקֹב עֵינָיו וַיַּרְא וְהִנֵּה עֵשָׂו בָּא וְעִמּוֹ אַרְבַּע מֵאוֹת אִישׁ וַיַּחַץ אֶת־הַיְלָדִים עַל־לֵאָה וְעַל־רָחֵל וְעַל שְׁתֵּי הַשְּׁפָחוֹת ׃
1. And Jacob H3290 lifted up H5375 his eyes H5869 , and looked H7200 , and, behold H2009 , Esau H6215 came H935 , and with H5973 him four H702 hundred H3967 men H376 . And he divided H2673 H853 the children H3206 unto H5921 Leah H3812 , and unto H5921 Rachel H7354 , and unto H5921 the two H8147 handmaids H8198 .
2. וַיָּשֶׂם אֶת־הַשְּׁפָחוֹת וְאֶת־יַלְדֵיהֶן רִאשֹׁנָה וְאֶת־לֵאָה וִילָדֶיהָ אַחֲרֹנִים וְאֶת־רָחֵל וְאֶת־יוֹסֵף אַחֲרֹנִים ׃
2. And he put H7760 H853 the handmaids H8198 and their children H3206 foremost H7223 , and Leah H3812 and her children H3206 after H314 , and Rachel H7354 and Joseph H3130 hindmost H314 .
3. וְהוּא עָבַר לִפְנֵיהֶם וַיִּשְׁתַּחוּ אַרְצָה שֶׁבַע פְּעָמִים עַד־גִּשְׁתּוֹ עַד־אָחִיו ׃
3. And he H1931 passed over H5674 before H6440 them , and bowed himself H7812 to the ground H776 seven H7651 times H6471 , until H5704 he came near H5066 to H5704 his brother H251 .
4. וַיָּרָץ עֵשָׂו לִקְרָאתוֹ וַיְחַבְּקֵהוּ וַיִּפֹּל עַל־צַוָּארָו וַיִּשָּׁקֵהוּ וַיִּבְכּוּ ׃
4. And Esau H6215 ran H7323 to meet H7125 him , and embraced H2263 him , and fell H5307 on H5921 his neck H6677 , and kissed H5401 him : and they wept H1058 .
5. וַיִּשָּׂא אֶת־עֵינָיו וַיַּרְא אֶת־הַנָּשִׁים וְאֶת־הַיְלָדִים וַיֹּאמֶר מִי־אֵלֶּה לָּךְ וַיֹּאמַר הַיְלָדִים אֲשֶׁר־חָנַן אֱלֹהִים אֶת־עַבְדֶּךָ ׃
5. And he lifted up H5375 H853 his eyes H5869 , and saw H7200 H853 the women H802 and the children H3206 ; and said H559 , Who H4310 are those H428 with thee? And he said H559 , The children H3206 which H834 God H430 hath graciously given H2603 H853 thy servant H5650 .
6. וַתִּגַּשְׁןָ הַשְּׁפָחוֹת הֵנָּה וְיַלְדֵיהֶן וַתִּשְׁתַּחֲוֶיןָ ׃
6. Then the handmaidens H8198 came near H5066 , they H2007 and their children H3206 , and they bowed themselves H7812 .
7. וַתִּגַּשׁ גַּם־לֵאָה וִילָדֶיהָ וַיִּשְׁתַּחֲווּ וְאַחַר נִגַּשׁ יוֹסֵף וְרָחֵל וַיִּשְׁתַּחֲווּ ׃
7. And Leah H3812 also H1571 with her children H3206 came near H5066 , and bowed themselves H7812 : and after H310 came Joseph near H5066 H3130 and Rachel H7354 , and they bowed themselves H7812 .
8. וַיֹּאמֶר מִי לְךָ כָּל־הַמַּחֲנֶה הַזֶּה אֲשֶׁר פָּגָשְׁתִּי וַיֹּאמֶר לִמְצֹא־חֵן בְּעֵינֵי אֲדֹנִי ׃
8. And he said H559 , What H4310 meanest thou by all H3605 this H2088 drove H4264 which H834 I met H6298 ? And he said H559 , These are to find H4672 grace H2580 in the sight H5869 of my lord H113 .
9. וַיֹּאמֶר עֵשָׂו יֶשׁ־לִי רָב אָחִי יְהִי לְךָ אֲשֶׁר־לָךְ ׃
9. And Esau H6215 said H559 , I have H3426 enough H7227 , my brother H251 ; keep H1961 that H834 thou hast unto thyself.
10. וַיֹּאמֶר יַעֲקֹב אַל־נָא אִם־נָא מָצָאתִי חֵן בְּעֵינֶיךָ וְלָקַחְתָּ מִנְחָתִי מִיָּדִי כִּי עַל־כֵּן רָאִיתִי פָנֶיךָ כִּרְאֹת פְּנֵי אֱלֹהִים וַתִּרְצֵנִי ׃
10. And Jacob H3290 said H559 , Nay H408 , I pray thee H4994 , if H518 now H4994 I have found H4672 grace H2580 in thy sight H5869 , then receive H3947 my present H4503 at my hand H4480 H3027 : for H3588 therefore H5921 H3651 I have seen H7200 thy face H6440 , as though I had seen H7200 the face H6440 of God H430 , and thou wast pleased H7521 with me.
11. קַח־נָא אֶת־בִּרְכָתִי אֲשֶׁר הֻבָאת לָךְ כִּי־חַנַּנִי אֱלֹהִים וְכִי יֶשׁ־לִי־כֹל וַיִּפְצַר־בּוֹ וַיִּקָּח ׃
11. Take H3947 , I pray thee H4994 , H853 my blessing H1293 that H834 is brought H935 to thee; because H3588 God H430 hath dealt graciously H2603 with me , and because H3588 I have H3426 enough H3605 . And he urged H6484 him , and he took H3947 it .
12. וַיֹּאמֶר נִסְעָה וְנֵלֵכָה וְאֵלְכָה לְנֶגְדֶּךָ ׃
12. And he said H559 , Let us take our journey H5265 , and let us go H1980 , and I will go H1980 before H5048 thee.
13. וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלָיו אֲדֹנִי יֹדֵעַ כִּי־הַיְלָדִים רַכִּים וְהַצֹּאן וְהַבָּקָר עָלוֹת עָלָי וּדְפָקוּם יוֹם אֶחָד וָמֵתוּ כָּל־הַצֹּאן ׃
13. And he said H559 unto H413 him , My lord H113 knoweth H3045 that H3588 the children H3206 are tender H7390 , and the flocks H6629 and herds H1241 with young H5763 are with H5921 me : and if men should overdrive H1849 them one H259 day H3117 , all H3605 the flock H6629 will die H4191 .
14. יַעֲבָר־נָא אֲדֹנִי לִפְנֵי עַבְדּוֹ וַאֲנִי אֶתְנָהֲלָה לְאִטִּי לְרֶגֶל הַמְּלָאכָה אֲשֶׁר־לְפָנַי וּלְרֶגֶל הַיְלָדִים עַד אֲשֶׁר־אָבֹא אֶל־אֲדֹנִי שֵׂעִירָה ׃
14. Let my lord H113 , I pray thee H4994 , pass over H5674 before H6440 his servant H5650 : and I H589 will lead on H5095 softly H328 , according as H7272 the cattle H4399 that H834 goeth before H6440 me and the children H3206 be able to endure H7272 , until H5704 H834 I come H935 unto H413 my lord H113 unto Seir H8165 .
15. וַיֹּאמֶר עֵשָׂו אַצִּיגָה־נָּא עִמְּךָ מִן־הָעָם אֲשֶׁר אִתִּי וַיֹּאמֶר לָמָּה זֶּה אֶמְצָא־חֵן בְּעֵינֵי אֲדֹנִי ׃
15. And Esau H6215 said H559 , Let me now H4994 leave H3322 with H5973 thee some of H4480 the folk H5971 that H834 are with H854 me . And he said H559 , What H4100 needeth it H2088 ? let me find H4672 grace H2580 in the sight H5869 of my lord H113 .
16. וַיָּשָׁב בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא עֵשָׂו לְדַרְכּוֹ שֵׂעִירָה ׃
16. So Esau H6215 returned H7725 that H1931 day H3117 on his way H1870 unto Seir H8165 .
17. וְיַעֲקֹב נָסַע סֻכֹּתָה וַיִּבֶן לוֹ בָּיִת וּלְמִקְנֵהוּ עָשָׂה סֻכֹּת עַל־כֵּן קָרָא שֵׁם־הַמָּקוֹם סֻכּוֹת ׃ ס

18. וַיָּבֹא יַעֲקֹב שָׁלֵם עִיר שְׁכֶם אֲשֶׁר בְּאֶרֶץ כְּנַעַן בְּבֹאוֹ מִפַּדַּן אֲרָם וַיִּחַן אֶת־פְּנֵי הָעִיר ׃
