And Jacob lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, Esau was coming, and with him four hundred men. And he distributed the children to Leah, and to Rachel, and to the two maidservants:
2 Te phoeiah salnu rhoek neh amih kah a ca rhoek a lamhma sak tih Leah neh a rhoek loh a hmaithawn. Rakhel neh Joseph te lamhnuk la a khueh.
and he put the maidservants and their children foremost, and Leah and her children after, and Rachel and Joseph hindmost.
3 Te phoeiah amah te amih hmai la cet tih a maya taeng a pha due diklai la voei rhih bakop.
And he passed on before them, and bowed to the earth seven times, until he came near to his brother.
4 Tedae anih te doe ham Esau yong tih a rhawn ah a kop uh rhoi, mok uh rhoi tih rhap rhoi.
And Esau ran to meet him, and embraced him, and fell on his neck, and kissed him; and they wept.

And he lifted up his eyes and saw the women and the children, and said, Who are these with thee? And he said, The children that God has graciously given thy servant.
6 Te vaengah a salnu rhoek neh a ca rhoek te thoeih uh tih bakop uh.
And the maidservants drew near, they and their children, and they bowed.

And he said, What [meanest] thou by all the drove which I met? And he said, To find favour in the eyes of my lord.
9 Tedae Esau loh, “Ka mana, kamah taengah muep om ta; namah taengkah te namah ham om saeh,” a ti nah.
And Esau said, I have enough, my brother; let what thou hast be thine.

And Jacob said, No, I pray thee; if now I have found favour in thine eyes, then receive my gift from my hand; for therefore have I seen thy face, as though I had seen the face of God, and thou hast received me with pleasure.
11 Pathen loh kai n'rhen tih kai ham a cungkuem a khueh dongah kai kah yoethennah nang taengla kang khuen te doe mai,” a ti nah tih amh te a hloep daengah a doe pah.
Take, I pray thee, my blessing which has been brought to thee; because God has been gracious to me, and because I have everything. And he urged him, and he took [it].
12 Te phoeiah, “Ceh, cet uh pawn sih lamtah nang hnuk ah ka lo eh?,” a ti nah.
And he said, Let us take our journey, and go on, and I will go before thee.

And he said to him, My lord knows that the children are tender, and the suckling sheep and kine are with me; and if they should overdrive them only one day, all the flock would die.
14 Ka boeipa te a sal hmai ah ana cet mai saeh. Kai tah ka mikhmuh kah bitat dongkah khokan neh, camoe rhoek kah khokan neh, vawlhvawlh kang khool vetih Seir kah ka boeipa taeng hil ka lo eh?,” a ti nah.
Let my lord, I pray thee, pass on before his servant, and I will drive on at my ease according to the pace of the cattle that is before me, and according to the pace of the children, until I come to my lord, to Seir.

And he bought the portion of the field where he had spread his tent, of the hand of the sons of Hamor, Shechem's father, for a hundred kesitahs.
