2 He put the maidservants and their children in front, Leah and her children next, and Rachel and Joseph at the rear.
And he put the maidservants and children their first and Leah and children her behind and Rachel and Joseph behind.
3 But Jacob himself went on ahead and bowed to the ground seven times as he approached his brother.
And he he passed on before them and he bowed down [the] ground towards seven times until drew near he to brother his.
4 Esau, however, ran to him and embraced him, threw his arms around his neck, and kissed him. And they both wept.
And he ran Esau to meet him and he embraced him and he fell on (neck his *Q(k)*) and he kissed him and they wept.
5 When Esau looked up and saw the women and children, he asked, “Who are these with you?” Jacob answered, “These are the children God has graciously given your servant.”
And he lifted up eyes his and he saw the women and the children and he said who? [are] these to you and he said the children whom he has shown favor to God servant your.
6 Then the maidservants and their children approached and bowed down.

8 “What do you mean by sending this whole company to meet me?” asked Esau. “To find favor in your sight, my lord,” Jacob answered.
And he said who? to you [is] all the camp this which I have met and he said to find favor in [the] eyes of lord my.
9 “I already have plenty, my brother,” Esau replied. “Keep what belongs to you.”
And he said Esau there [belongs] to me much O brother my let it be[long] to you [that] which [belongs] to you.
10 But Jacob insisted, “No, please! If I have found favor in your sight, then receive this gift from my hand. For indeed, I have seen your face, and it is like seeing the face of God, since you have received me favorably.
And he said Jacob may not [it be] please if please I have found favor in view your and you will accept gift my from hand my for since I have seen face your like seeing [the] face of God and you have accepted favorably me.
11 Please accept my gift that was brought to you, because God has been gracious to me and I have all I need.” So Jacob pressed him until he accepted.
Take please blessing my which it was brought to you for he has shown favor to me God and that there [belongs] to me everything and he urged him and he took [it].
12 Then Esau said, “Let us be on our way, and I will go ahead of you.”
And he said let us set out and let us go and I will go to before you.
13 But Jacob replied, “My lord knows that the children are frail, and I must care for sheep and cattle that are nursing their young. If they are driven hard for even a day, all the animals will die.
And he said to him lord my [is] knowing that the children [are] weak and the sheep and the cattle [are] nursing with me and people will drive hard them a day one and they will die all the flock.
14 Please let my lord go ahead of his servant. I will continue on slowly, at a comfortable pace for the livestock and children, until I come to my lord at Seir.”
Let him pass on please lord my before servant his and I (I will journey on *LBH(a)*) to gentleness my to [the] foot of the property which [is] before me and to [the] foot of the children until that I will come to lord my Seir towards.
15 “Let me leave some of my people with you,” Esau said. But Jacob replied, “Why do that? Let me find favor in the sight of my lord.”
And he said Esau let me place please with you some of the people which [is] with me and he said why? this let me find favor in [the] eyes of lord my.

And he returned on the day that Esau to way his Seir towards.
