6When the servants came back they said, We have seen your brother Esau and he is coming out to you, and four hundred men with him.
7Then Jacob was in great fear and trouble of mind: and he put all the people and the flocks and the herds and the camels into two groups;
8And said, If Esau, meeting one group, makes an attack on them, the others will get away safely.
9Then Jacob said, O God of my father Abraham, the God of my father Isaac, the Lord who said to me, Go back to your country and your family and I will be good to you:
10I am less than nothing in comparison with all your mercies and your faith to me your servant; for with only my stick in my hand I went across Jordan, and now I have become two armies.
11Be my saviour from the hand of Esau, my brother: for my fear is that he will make an attack on me, putting to death mother and child.
12And you said, Truly, I will be good to you, and make your seed like the sand of the sea which may not be numbered.
