^{13 Ref} And he lodged there that night, and took of that which he had with him a present for Esau his brother:

^{14 Ref} two hundred she-goats and twenty he-goats, two hundred ewes and twenty rams,

¹⁵ thirty milch camels and their colts, forty cows and ten bulls, twenty she-asses and ten foals.

^{16 Ref} And he delivered them into the hand of his servants, every drove by itself, and said unto his servants, Pass over before me, and put a space betwixt drove and drove.

^{17 Ref} And he commanded the foremost, saying, When Esau my brother meeteth thee, and asketh thee, saying, Whose art thou? and whither goest thou? and whose are these before thee?

^{18 Ref} then thou shalt say `They are' thy servant Jacob's; it is a present sent unto my lord Esau: and, behold, he also is behind us.

¹⁹ And he commanded also the second, and the third, and all that followed the droves, saying, On this manner shall ye speak unto Esau, when ye find him;

^{20 Ref} and ye shall say, Moreover, behold, thy servant Jacob is behind us. For he said, I will appease him with the present that goeth before me, and afterward I will see his face; peradventure he will accept me.

²¹ So the present passed over before him: and he himself lodged that night in the company.

^{22 Ref} And he rose up that night, and took his two wives, and his two handmaids, and his eleven children, and passed over the ford of the Jabbok.

²³ And he took them, and sent them over the stream, and sent over that which he had.

^{24 Ref} And Jacob was left alone; and there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of the day.

^{25 Ref} And when he saw that he prevailed not against him, he touched the hollow of his thigh; and the hollow of Jacob's thigh was strained, as he wrestled with him.

^{26 Ref} And he said, Let me go, for the day breaketh. And he said, I will not let thee go, except thou bless me.

²⁷ And he said unto him, What is thy name? And he said, Jacob.

^{28 Ref} And he said, Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel: for thou hast striven with God and with men, and hast prevailed.

^{29 Ref} And Jacob asked him, and said, Tell me, I pray thee, thy name. And he said, Wherefore is it that thou dost ask after my name? And he blessed him there.

^{30 Ref} And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for, `said he', I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.

^{31 Ref} And the sun rose upon him as he passed over Penuel, and he limped upon his thigh.

^{32 Ref} Therefore the children of Israel eat not the sinew of the hip which is upon the hollow of the thigh, unto this day: because he touched the hollow of Jacob's thigh in the sinew of the hip.
