Genesis 32:1 (WEB) World English Bible

1 Jacob went on his way, and the angels of God met him.
2 When he saw them, Jacob said, "This is God's host." He called the name of that place Mahanaim.
3 Jacob sent messengers in front of him to Esau, his brother, to the land of Seir, the field of Edom.
4 He commanded them, saying, "This is what you shall tell my lord, Esau: 'This is what your servant, Jacob, says. I have lived as a foreigner with Laban, and stayed until now.
5 I have oxen, donkeys, flocks, men-servants, and maid-servants. I have sent to tell my lord, that I may find favor in your sight.'"
6 The messengers returned to Jacob, saying, "We came to your brother Esau. Not only that, but he comes to meet you, and four hundred men with him."
7 Then Jacob was greatly afraid and was distressed: and he divided the people who were with him, and the flocks, and the herds, and the camels, into two companies;
8 and he said, "If Esau comes to the one company, and strikes it, then the company which is left will escape."
9 Jacob said, "God of my father Abraham, and God of my father Isaac, Yahweh, who said to me, 'Return to your country, and to your relatives, and I will do you good.'
10 I am not worthy of the least of all the loving kindnesses, and of all the truth, which you have shown to your servant; for with just my staff I passed over this Jordan; and now I have become two companies.
11 Please deliver me from the hand of my brother, from the hand of Esau: for I fear him, lest he come and strike me, and the mothers with the children.
12 You said, 'I will surely do you good, and make your seed as the sand of the sea, which can't be numbered because there are so many.'"
13 He lodged there that night, and took from that which he had with him, a present for Esau, his brother:
14 two hundred female goats and twenty male goats, two hundred ewes and twenty rams,
15 thirty milk camels and their colts, forty cows, ten bulls, twenty she-donkeys and ten foals.
16 He delivered them into the hands of his servants, every herd by itself, and said to his servants, "Pass over before me, and put a space between herd and herd."
17 He commanded the foremost, saying, "When Esau, my brother, meets you, and asks you, saying, 'Whose are you? Where are you going? Whose are these before you?'
18 Then you shall say, 'They are your servant, Jacob's. It is a present sent to my lord, Esau. Behold, he also is behind us.'"
19 He commanded also the second, and the third, and all that followed the herds, saying, "This is how you shall speak to Esau, when you find him.
20 You shall say, 'Not only that, but behold, your servant, Jacob, is behind us.'" For, he said, "I will appease him with the present that goes before me, and afterward I will see his face. Perhaps he will accept me."
21 So the present passed over before him: and he himself lodged that night in the camp.
22 He rose up that night, and took his two wives, and his two handmaids, and his eleven sons, and passed over the ford of the Jabbok.
23 He took them, and sent them over the stream, and sent over that which he had.
24 Jacob was left alone, and wrestled with a man there until the breaking of the day.
25 When he saw that he didn't prevail against him, he touched the hollow of his thigh, and the hollow of Jacob's thigh was strained, as he wrestled.
26 The man said, "Let me go, for the day breaks." Jacob said, "I won't let you go, unless you bless me."
27 He said to him, "What is your name?" He said, "Jacob."
28 He said, "Your name will no longer be called 'Jacob,' but, 'Israel,' for you have fought with God and with men, and have prevailed."
29 Jacob asked him, "Please tell me your name." He said, "Why is it that you ask what my name is?" He blessed him there.
30 Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for, he said, "I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved."
31 The sun rose on him as he passed over Peniel, and he limped because of his thigh.
32 Therefore the children of Israel don't eat the sinew of the hip, which is on the hollow of the thigh, to this day, because he touched the hollow of Jacob's thigh in the sinew of the hip.
1 And Jacob H3290 went H1980 on his way, H1870 and the angels H4397 of God H430 met H6293 him.
2 And when H834 Jacob H3290 saw H7200 them , he said, H559 This H2088 is God's H430 host: H4264 and he called H7121 the name H8034 of that H1931 place H4725 Mahanaim. H4266
3 And Jacob H3290 sent H7971 messengers H4397 before H6440 him to H413 Esau H6215 his brother H251 unto the land H776 of Seir, H8165 the country H7704 of Edom. H123
4 And he commanded H6680 them, saying, H559 Thus H3541 shall ye speak H559 unto my lord H113 Esau; H6215 Thy servant H5650 Jacob H3290 saith H559 thus, H3541 I have sojourned H1481 with H5973 Laban, H3837 and stayed there H309 until H5704 now: H6258
5 And I have H1961 oxen, H7794 and asses, H2543 flocks, H6629 and menservants, H5650 and womenservants: H8198 and I have sent H7971 to tell H5046 my lord, H113 that I may find H4672 grace H2580 in thy sight. H5869
6 And the messengers H4397 returned H7725 to H413 Jacob, H3290 saying, H559 We came H935 to H413 thy brother H251 Esau, H6215 and also H1571 he cometh H1980 to meet H7125 thee , and four H702 hundred H3967 men H376 with H5973 him.
7 Then Jacob H3290 was greatly afraid H3372 H3966 and distressed: H3334 and he divided H2673 H853 the people H5971 that H834 was with H854 him , and the flocks, H6629 and herds, H1241 and the camels, H1581 into two H8147 bands; H4264
8 And said, H559 If H518 Esau H6215 come H935 to H413 the one H259 company, H4264 and smite H5221 it , then the other company H4264 which is left H7604 shall escape. H6413
9 And Jacob H3290 said, H559 O God H430 of my father H1 Abraham, H85 and God H430 of my father H1 Isaac, H3327 the LORD H3068 which saidst H559 unto H413 me, Return H7725 unto thy country, H776 and to thy kindred, H4138 and I will deal well H3190 with H5973 thee:
10 I am not worthy H6994 of the least of all H4480 H3605 the mercies, H2617 and of all H4480 H3605 the truth, H571 which H834 thou hast showed H6213 unto H853 thy servant; H5650 for H3588 with my staff H4731 I passed over H5674 H853 this H2088 Jordan; H3383 and now H6258 I am become H1961 two H8147 bands. H4264
11 Deliver H5337 me , I pray thee, H4994 from the hand H4480 H3027 of my brother, H251 from the hand H4480 H3027 of Esau: H6215 for H3588 I H595 fear H3372 him, lest H6435 he will come H935 and smite H5221 me, and the mother H517 with H5921 the children. H1121
12 And thou H859 saidst, H559 I will surely do thee good H3190 H3190, H5973 and make thy seed H2233 as the sand H2344 of the sea, H3220 which H834 cannot H3808 be numbered H5608 for multitude H4480. H7230
13 And he lodged H3885 there H8033 that same H1931 night; H3915 and took H3947 of H4480 that which came H935 to his hand H3027 a present H4503 for Esau H6215 his brother; H251
14 Two hundred H3967 she goats, H5795 and twenty H6242 he goats, H8495 two hundred H3967 ewes, H7353 and twenty H6242 rams, H352
15 Thirty H7970 milch H3243 camels H1581 with their colts, H1121 forty H705 kine, H6510 and ten H6235 bulls, H6499 twenty H6242 she asses, H860 and ten H6235 foals. H5895
16 And he delivered H5414 them into the hand H3027 of his servants, H5650 every drove H5739 H5739 by themselves; H905 and said H559 unto H413 his servants, H5650 Pass over H5674 before H6440 me , and put H7760 a space H7305 between H996 drove H5739 and drove. H5739
17 And he commanded H6680 H853 the foremost, H7223 saying, H559 When H3588 Esau H6215 my brother H251 meeteth H6298 thee , and asketh H7592 thee, saying, H559 Whose H4310 art thou H859 ? and whither H575 goest H1980 thou? and whose H4310 are these H428 before H6440 thee?
18 Then thou shalt say, H559 They be thy servant H5650 Jacob's H3290; it H1931 is a present H4503 sent H7971 unto my lord H113 Esau: H6215 and, behold, H2009 also H1571 he H1931 is behind H310 us.
19 And so H1571 commanded H6680 he H853 the second, H8145 and H1571 H853 the third, H7992 and H1571 H853 all H3605 that followed H1980 H310 the droves, H5739 saying, H559 On this H2088 manner H1697 shall ye speak H1696 unto H413 Esau, H6215 when ye find H4672 him.
20 And say H559 ye moreover, H1571 Behold, H2009 thy servant H5650 Jacob H3290 is behind H310 us. For H3588 he said, H559 I will appease H3722 H6440 him with the present H4503 that goeth H1980 before H6440 me , and afterward H310 H3651 I will see H7200 his face; H6440 peradventure H194 he will accept H5375 H6440 of me.
21 So went H5674 the present H4503 over before H5921 H6440 him : and himself H1931 lodged H3885 that H1931 night H3915 in the company. H4264
22 And he rose up H6965 that H1931 night, H3915 and took H3947 H853 his two H8147 wives, H802 and his two H8147 womenservants, H8198 and his eleven H259 H6240 sons, H3206 and passed over H5674 H853 the ford H4569 Jabbok. H2999
23 And he took H3947 them , and sent them over H5674 H853 the brook, H5158 and sent over H5674 H853 that H834 he had.
24 And Jacob H3290 was left H3498 alone; H905 and there wrestled H79 a man H376 with H5973 him until H5704 the breaking H5927 of the day. H7837
25 And when he saw H7200 that H3588 he prevailed H3201 not H3808 against him , he touched H5060 the hollow H3709 of his thigh; H3409 and the hollow H3709 of Jacob's H3290 thigh H3409 was out of joint, H3363 as he wrestled H79 with H5973 him.
26 And he said, H559 Let me go, H7971 for H3588 the day H7837 breaketh. H5927 And he said, H559 I will not H3808 let thee go, H7971 except H3588 H518 thou bless H1288 me.
27 And he said H559 unto H413 him, What H4100 is thy name H8034 ? And he said, H559 Jacob. H3290
28 And he said, H559 Thy name H8034 shall be called H559 no H3808 more H5750 Jacob, H3290 but H3588 H518 Israel: H3478 for H3588 as a prince hast thou power H8280 with H5973 God H430 and with H5973 men, H376 and hast prevailed. H3201
29 And Jacob H3290 asked H7592 him , and said, H559 Tell H5046 me , I pray thee, H4994 thy name. H8034 And he said, H559 Wherefore H4100 is it H2088 that thou dost ask H7592 after my name H8034 ? And he blessed H1288 him there. H8033
30 And Jacob H3290 called H7121 the name H8034 of the place H4725 Peniel: H6439 for H3588 I have seen H7200 God H430 face H6440 to H413 face, H6440 and my life H5315 is preserved. H5337
31 And as H834 he passed over H5674 H853 Penuel H6439 the sun H8121 rose H2224 upon him , and he H1931 halted H6760 upon H5921 his thigh. H3409
32 Therefore H5921 H3651 the children H1121 of Israel H3478 eat H398 not H3808 of H853 the sinew H1517 which shrank, H5384 which H834 is upon H5921 the hollow H3709 of the thigh, H3409 unto H5704 this H2088 day: H3117 because H3588 he touched H5060 the hollow H3709 of Jacob's H3290 thigh H3409 in the sinew H1517 that shrank.
