1  And Jacob³²⁹⁰ went¹⁹⁸⁰ on his way,¹⁸⁷⁰ and the angels⁴³⁹⁷ of God⁴³⁰ met⁶²⁹³ him.

2  And when⁸³⁴ Jacob³²⁹⁰ saw⁷²⁰⁰ them, he said,⁵⁵⁹ This²⁰⁸⁸ is God's⁴³⁰ host:⁴²⁶⁴ and he called⁷¹²¹ the name⁸⁰³⁴ of that¹⁹³¹ place⁴⁷²⁵ Mahanaim.⁴²⁶⁶

3  And Jacob³²⁹⁰ sent⁷⁹⁷¹ messengers⁴³⁹⁷ before⁶⁴⁴⁰ him to⁴¹³ Esau⁶²¹⁵ his brother²⁵¹ unto the land⁷⁷⁶ of Seir,⁸¹⁶⁵ the country⁷⁷⁰⁴ of Edom.¹²³

4  And he commanded⁶⁶⁸⁰ them, saying,⁵⁵⁹ Thus³⁵⁴¹ shall ye speak⁵⁵⁹ unto my lord¹¹³ Esau;⁶²¹⁵ Thy servant⁵⁶⁵⁰ Jacob³²⁹⁰ saith⁵⁵⁹ thus,³⁵⁴¹ I have sojourned¹⁴⁸¹ with⁵⁹⁷³ Laban,³⁸³⁷ and stayed there³⁰⁹ until⁵⁷⁰⁴ now:⁶²⁵⁸

5  And I have¹⁹⁶¹ oxen,⁷⁷⁹⁴ and asses,²⁵⁴³ flocks,⁶⁶²⁹ and menservants,⁵⁶⁵⁰ and womenservants:⁸¹⁹⁸ and I have sent⁷⁹⁷¹ to tell⁵⁰⁴⁶ my lord,¹¹³ that I may find⁴⁶⁷² grace²⁵⁸⁰ in thy sight.⁵⁸⁶⁹

6  And the messengers⁴³⁹⁷ returned⁷⁷²⁵ to⁴¹³ Jacob,³²⁹⁰ saying,⁵⁵⁹ We came⁹³⁵ to⁴¹³ thy brother²⁵¹ Esau,⁶²¹⁵ and also¹⁵⁷¹ he cometh¹⁹⁸⁰ to meet⁷¹²⁵ thee, and four⁷⁰² hundred³⁹⁶⁷ men³⁷⁶ with⁵⁹⁷³ him.

7  Then Jacob³²⁹⁰ was greatly afraid^{3372 3966} and distressed:³³³⁴ and he divided^{2673 853} the people⁵⁹⁷¹ that⁸³⁴ was with⁸⁵⁴ him, and the flocks,⁶⁶²⁹ and herds,¹²⁴¹ and the camels,¹⁵⁸¹ into two⁸¹⁴⁷ bands;⁴²⁶⁴

8  And said,⁵⁵⁹ If⁵¹⁸ Esau⁶²¹⁵ come⁹³⁵ to⁴¹³ the one²⁵⁹ company,⁴²⁶⁴ and smite⁵²²¹ it, then the other company⁴²⁶⁴ which is left⁷⁶⁰⁴ shall escape.⁶⁴¹³

9  And Jacob³²⁹⁰ said,⁵⁵⁹ O God⁴³⁰ of my father¹ Abraham,⁸⁵ and God⁴³⁰ of my father¹ Isaac,³³²⁷ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ which saidst⁵⁵⁹ unto⁴¹³ me, Return⁷⁷²⁵ unto thy country,⁷⁷⁶ and to thy kindred,⁴¹³⁸ and I will deal well³¹⁹⁰ with⁵⁹⁷³ thee:

10  I am not worthy⁶⁹⁹⁴ of the least of all^{4480 3605} the mercies,²⁶¹⁷ and of all^{4480 3605} the truth,⁵⁷¹ which⁸³⁴ thou hast showed⁶²¹³ unto ⁸⁵³ thy servant;⁵⁶⁵⁰ for³⁵⁸⁸ with my staff⁴⁷³¹ I passed over^{5674 853} this²⁰⁸⁸ Jordan;³³⁸³ and now⁶²⁵⁸ I am become¹⁹⁶¹ two⁸¹⁴⁷ bands.⁴²⁶⁴

11  Deliver⁵³³⁷ me, I pray thee,⁴⁹⁹⁴ from the hand^{4480 3027} of my brother,²⁵¹ from the hand^{4480 3027} of Esau:⁶²¹⁵ for³⁵⁸⁸ I⁵⁹⁵ fear³³⁷² him, lest⁶⁴³⁵ he will come⁹³⁵ and smite⁵²²¹ me, and the mother⁵¹⁷ with⁵⁹²¹ the children.¹¹²¹

12  And thou⁸⁵⁹ saidst,⁵⁵⁹ I will surely do thee good,^{3190 3190 5973} and make^{7760 853} thy seed²²³³ as the sand²³⁴⁴ of the sea,³²²⁰ which⁸³⁴ cannot³⁸⁰⁸ be numbered⁵⁶⁰⁸ for multitude.^{4480 7230}

13  And he lodged³⁸⁸⁵ there⁸⁰³³ that same¹⁹³¹ night;³⁹¹⁵ and took³⁹⁴⁷ of⁴⁴⁸⁰ that which came⁹³⁵ to his hand³⁰²⁷ a present⁴⁵⁰³ for Esau⁶²¹⁵ his brother;²⁵¹

14  Two hundred³⁹⁶⁷ she goats,⁵⁷⁹⁵ and twenty⁶²⁴² he goats,⁸⁴⁹⁵ two hundred³⁹⁶⁷ ewes,⁷³⁵³ and twenty⁶²⁴² rams,³⁵²

15  Thirty⁷⁹⁷⁰ milch³²⁴³ camels¹⁵⁸¹ with their colts,¹¹²¹ forty⁷⁰⁵ kine,⁶⁵¹⁰ and ten⁶²³⁵ bulls,⁶⁴⁹⁹ twenty⁶²⁴² she asses,⁸⁶⁰ and ten⁶²³⁵ foals.⁵⁸⁹⁵

16  And he delivered⁵⁴¹⁴ them into the hand³⁰²⁷ of his servants,⁵⁶⁵⁰ every drove^{5739 5739} by themselves;⁹⁰⁵ and said⁵⁵⁹ unto⁴¹³ his servants,⁵⁶⁵⁰ Pass over⁵⁶⁷⁴ before⁶⁴⁴⁰ me, and put⁷⁷⁶⁰ a space⁷³⁰⁵ between⁹⁹⁶ drove⁵⁷³⁹ and drove.⁵⁷³⁹

17  And he commanded^{6680 853} the foremost,⁷²²³ saying,⁵⁵⁹ When³⁵⁸⁸ Esau⁶²¹⁵ my brother²⁵¹ meeteth⁶²⁹⁸ thee, and asketh⁷⁵⁹² thee, saying,⁵⁵⁹ Whose⁴³¹⁰ art thou?⁸⁵⁹ and whither⁵⁷⁵ goest¹⁹⁸⁰ thou? and whose⁴³¹⁰ are these⁴²⁸ before⁶⁴⁴⁰ thee?

18  Then thou shalt say,⁵⁵⁹ They be thy servant⁵⁶⁵⁰ Jacob's;³²⁹⁰ it¹⁹³¹ is a present⁴⁵⁰³ sent⁷⁹⁷¹ unto my lord¹¹³ Esau:⁶²¹⁵ and, behold,²⁰⁰⁹ also¹⁵⁷¹ he¹⁹³¹ is behind³¹⁰ us.

19  And so¹⁵⁷¹ commanded⁶⁶⁸⁰ he ⁸⁵³ the second,⁸¹⁴⁵ and^{1571 853} the third,⁷⁹⁹² and^{1571 853} all³⁶⁰⁵ that followed^{1980 310} the droves,⁵⁷³⁹ saying,⁵⁵⁹ On this²⁰⁸⁸ manner¹⁶⁹⁷ shall ye speak¹⁶⁹⁶ unto⁴¹³ Esau,⁶²¹⁵ when ye find⁴⁶⁷² him.

20  And say⁵⁵⁹ ye moreover,¹⁵⁷¹ Behold,²⁰⁰⁹ thy servant⁵⁶⁵⁰ Jacob³²⁹⁰ is behind³¹⁰ us. For³⁵⁸⁸ he said,⁵⁵⁹ I will appease^{3722 6440} him with the present⁴⁵⁰³ that goeth¹⁹⁸⁰ before⁶⁴⁴⁰ me, and afterward^{310 3651} I will see⁷²⁰⁰ his face;⁶⁴⁴⁰ peradventure¹⁹⁴ he will accept^{5375 6440} of me.

21  So went⁵⁶⁷⁴ the present⁴⁵⁰³ over before^{5921 6440} him: and himself¹⁹³¹ lodged³⁸⁸⁵ that¹⁹³¹ night³⁹¹⁵ in the company.⁴²⁶⁴

22  And he rose up⁶⁹⁶⁵ that¹⁹³¹ night,³⁹¹⁵ and took^{3947 853} his two⁸¹⁴⁷ wives,⁸⁰² and his two⁸¹⁴⁷ womenservants,⁸¹⁹⁸ and his eleven^{259 6240} sons,³²⁰⁶ and passed over^{5674 853} the ford⁴⁵⁶⁹ Jabbok.²⁹⁹⁹

23  And he took³⁹⁴⁷ them, and sent them over^{5674 853} the brook,⁵¹⁵⁸ and sent over^{5674 853} that⁸³⁴ he had.

24  And Jacob³²⁹⁰ was left³⁴⁹⁸ alone;⁹⁰⁵ and there wrestled⁷⁹ a man³⁷⁶ with⁵⁹⁷³ him until⁵⁷⁰⁴ the breaking⁵⁹²⁷ of the day.⁷⁸³⁷

25  And when he saw⁷²⁰⁰ that³⁵⁸⁸ he prevailed³²⁰¹ not³⁸⁰⁸ against him, he touched⁵⁰⁶⁰ the hollow³⁷⁰⁹ of his thigh;³⁴⁰⁹ and the hollow³⁷⁰⁹ of Jacob's³²⁹⁰ thigh³⁴⁰⁹ was out of joint,³³⁶³ as he wrestled⁷⁹ with⁵⁹⁷³ him.

26  And he said,⁵⁵⁹ Let me go,⁷⁹⁷¹ for³⁵⁸⁸ the day⁷⁸³⁷ breaketh.⁵⁹²⁷ And he said,⁵⁵⁹ I will not³⁸⁰⁸ let thee go,⁷⁹⁷¹ except^{3588 518} thou bless¹²⁸⁸ me.

27  And he said⁵⁵⁹ unto⁴¹³ him, What⁴¹⁰⁰ is thy name?⁸⁰³⁴ And he said,⁵⁵⁹ Jacob.³²⁹⁰

28  And he said,⁵⁵⁹ Thy name⁸⁰³⁴ shall be called⁵⁵⁹ no³⁸⁰⁸ more⁵⁷⁵⁰ Jacob,³²⁹⁰ but^{3588 518} Israel:³⁴⁷⁸ for³⁵⁸⁸ as a prince hast thou power⁸²⁸⁰ with⁵⁹⁷³ God⁴³⁰ and with⁵⁹⁷³ men,³⁷⁶ and hast prevailed.³²⁰¹

29  And Jacob³²⁹⁰ asked⁷⁵⁹² him, and said,⁵⁵⁹ Tell⁵⁰⁴⁶ me, I pray thee,⁴⁹⁹⁴ thy name.⁸⁰³⁴ And he said,⁵⁵⁹ Wherefore⁴¹⁰⁰ is it²⁰⁸⁸ that thou dost ask⁷⁵⁹² after my name?⁸⁰³⁴ And he blessed¹²⁸⁸ him there.⁸⁰³³

30  And Jacob³²⁹⁰ called⁷¹²¹ the name⁸⁰³⁴ of the place⁴⁷²⁵ Peniel:⁶⁴³⁹ for³⁵⁸⁸ I have seen⁷²⁰⁰ God⁴³⁰ face⁶⁴⁴⁰ to⁴¹³ face,⁶⁴⁴⁰ and my life⁵³¹⁵ is preserved.⁵³³⁷

31  And as⁸³⁴ he passed over^{5674 853} Penuel⁶⁴³⁹ the sun⁸¹²¹ rose²²²⁴ upon him, and he¹⁹³¹ halted⁶⁷⁶⁰ upon⁵⁹²¹ his thigh.³⁴⁰⁹

32  Therefore^{5921 3651} the children¹¹²¹ of Israel³⁴⁷⁸ eat³⁹⁸ not³⁸⁰⁸ of ⁸⁵³ the sinew¹⁵¹⁷ which shrank,⁵³⁸⁴ which⁸³⁴ is upon⁵⁹²¹ the hollow³⁷⁰⁹ of the thigh,³⁴⁰⁹ unto⁵⁷⁰⁴ this²⁰⁸⁸ day:³¹¹⁷ because³⁵⁸⁸ he touched⁵⁰⁶⁰ the hollow³⁷⁰⁹ of Jacob's³²⁹⁰ thigh³⁴⁰⁹ in the sinew¹⁵¹⁷ that shrank.⁵³⁸⁴

1 ἀναστὰς δὲ Λαβαν τὸ πρωὶ κατεφίλησεν τοὺς υἱοὺς αὐτοῦ καὶ τὰς θυγατέρας αὐτοῦ καὶ εὐλόγησεν αὐτούς καὶ ἀποστραφεὶς Λαβαν ἀπῆλθεν εἰς τὸν τόπον αὐτοῦ

2 καὶ Ιακωβ ἀπῆλθεν εἰς τὴν ἑαυτοῦ ὁδόν καὶ ἀναβλέψας εἶδεν παρεμβολὴν θεοῦ παρεμβεβληκυῖαν καὶ συνήντησαν αὐτῷ οἱ ἄγγελοι τοῦ θεοῦ

3 εἶπεν δὲ Ιακωβ ἡνίκα εἶδεν αὐτούς Παρεμβολὴ θεοῦ αὕτη καὶ ἐκάλεσεν τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ τόπου ἐκείνου Παρεμβολαί

4 ἀπέστειλεν δὲ Ιακωβ ἀγγέλους ἔμπροσθεν αὐτοῦ πρὸς Ησαυ τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ εἰς γῆν Σηιρ εἰς χώραν Εδωμ

5 καὶ ἐνετείλατο αὐτοῖς λέγων οὕτως ἐρεῖτε τῷ κυρίῳ μου Ησαυ οὕτως λέγει ὁ παῖς σου Ιακωβ μετὰ Λαβαν παρῴκησα καὶ ἐχρόνισα ἕως τοῦ νῦν

6 καὶ ἐγένοντό μοι βόες καὶ ὄνοι καὶ πρόβατα καὶ παῖδες καὶ παιδίσκαι καὶ ἀπέστειλα ἀναγγεῖλαι τῷ κυρίῳ μου Ησαυ ἵνα εὕρῃ ὁ παῖς σου χάριν ἐναντίον σου

7 καὶ ἀνέστρεψαν οἱ ἄγγελοι πρὸς Ιακωβ λέγοντες ἤλθομεν πρὸς τὸν ἀδελφόν σου Ησαυ καὶ ἰδοὺ αὐτὸς ἔρχεται εἰς συνάντησίν σοι καὶ τετρακόσιοι ἄνδρες μετ᾽ αὐτοῦ

8 ἐφοβήθη δὲ Ιακωβ σφόδρα καὶ ἠπορεῖτο καὶ διεῖλεν τὸν λαὸν τὸν μετ᾽ αὐτοῦ καὶ τοὺς βόας καὶ τὰ πρόβατα εἰς δύο παρεμβολάς

9 καὶ εἶπεν Ιακωβ ἐὰν ἔλθῃ Ησαυ εἰς παρεμβολὴν μίαν καὶ ἐκκόψῃ αὐτήν ἔσται ἡ παρεμβολὴ ἡ δευτέρα εἰς τὸ σῴζεσθαι

10 εἶπεν δὲ Ιακωβ ὁ θεὸς τοῦ πατρός μου Αβρααμ καὶ ὁ θεὸς τοῦ πατρός μου Ισαακ κύριε ὁ εἴπας μοι ἀπότρεχε εἰς τὴν γῆν τῆς γενέσεώς σου καὶ εὖ σε ποιήσω

11 ἱκανοῦταί μοι ἀπὸ πάσης δικαιοσύνης καὶ ἀπὸ πάσης ἀληθείας ἧς ἐποίησας τῷ παιδί σου ἐν γὰρ τῇ ῥάβδῳ μου διέβην τὸν Ιορδάνην τοῦτον νῦν δὲ γέγονα εἰς δύο παρεμβολάς

12 ἐξελοῦ με ἐκ χειρὸς τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ μου Ησαυ ὅτι φοβοῦμαι ἐγὼ αὐτόν μήποτε ἐλθὼν πατάξῃ με καὶ μητέρα ἐπὶ τέκνοις

13 σὺ δὲ εἶπας καλῶς εὖ σε ποιήσω καὶ θήσω τὸ σπέρμα σου ὡς τὴν ἄμμον τῆς θαλάσσης ἣ οὐκ ἀριθμηθήσεται ἀπὸ τοῦ πλήθους

14 καὶ ἐκοιμήθη ἐκεῖ τὴν νύκτα ἐκείνην καὶ ἔλαβεν ὧν ἔφερεν δῶρα καὶ ἐξαπέστειλεν Ησαυ τῷ ἀδελφῷ αὐτοῦ

15 αἶγας διακοσίας τράγους εἴκοσι πρόβατα διακόσια κριοὺς εἴκοσι

16 καμήλους θηλαζούσας καὶ τὰ παιδία αὐτῶν τριάκοντα βόας τεσσαράκοντα ταύρους δέκα ὄνους εἴκοσι καὶ πώλους δέκα

17 καὶ ἔδωκεν διὰ χειρὸς τοῖς παισὶν αὐτοῦ ποίμνιον κατὰ μόνας εἶπεν δὲ τοῖς παισὶν αὐτοῦ προπορεύεσθε ἔμπροσθέν μου καὶ διάστημα ποιεῖτε ἀνὰ μέσον ποίμνης καὶ ποίμνης

18 καὶ ἐνετείλατο τῷ πρώτῳ λέγων ἐάν σοι συναντήσῃ Ησαυ ὁ ἀδελφός μου καὶ ἐρωτᾷ σε λέγων τίνος εἶ καὶ ποῦ πορεύῃ καὶ τίνος ταῦτα τὰ προπορευόμενά σου

19 ἐρεῖς τοῦ παιδός σου Ιακωβ δῶρα ἀπέσταλκεν τῷ κυρίῳ μου Ησαυ καὶ ἰδοὺ αὐτὸς ὀπίσω ἡμῶν

20 καὶ ἐνετείλατο τῷ πρώτῳ καὶ τῷ δευτέρῳ καὶ τῷ τρίτῳ καὶ πᾶσι τοῖς προπορευομένοις ὀπίσω τῶν ποιμνίων τούτων λέγων κατὰ τὸ ῥῆμα τοῦτο λαλήσατε Ησαυ ἐν τῷ εὑρεῖν ὑμᾶς αὐτὸν

21 καὶ ἐρεῖτε ἰδοὺ ὁ παῖς σου Ιακωβ παραγίνεται ὀπίσω ἡμῶν εἶπεν γάρ ἐξιλάσομαι τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ ἐν τοῖς δώροις τοῖς προπορευομένοις αὐτοῦ καὶ μετὰ τοῦτο ὄψομαι τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ ἴσως γὰρ προσδέξεται τὸ πρόσωπόν μου

22 καὶ παρεπορεύοντο τὰ δῶρα κατὰ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ αὐτὸς δὲ ἐκοιμήθη τὴν νύκτα ἐκείνην ἐν τῇ παρεμβολῇ

23 ἀναστὰς δὲ τὴν νύκτα ἐκείνην ἔλαβεν τὰς δύο γυναῖκας καὶ τὰς δύο παιδίσκας καὶ τὰ ἕνδεκα παιδία αὐτοῦ καὶ διέβη τὴν διάβασιν τοῦ Ιαβοκ

24 καὶ ἔλαβεν αὐτοὺς καὶ διέβη τὸν χειμάρρουν καὶ διεβίβασεν πάντα τὰ αὐτοῦ

25 ὑπελείφθη δὲ Ιακωβ μόνος καὶ ἐπάλαιεν ἄνθρωπος μετ᾽ αὐτοῦ ἕως πρωί

26 εἶδεν δὲ ὅτι οὐ δύναται πρὸς αὐτόν καὶ ἥψατο τοῦ πλάτους τοῦ μηροῦ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐνάρκησεν τὸ πλάτος τοῦ μηροῦ Ιακωβ ἐν τῷ παλαίειν αὐτὸν μετ᾽ αὐτοῦ

27 καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ ἀπόστειλόν με ἀνέβη γὰρ ὁ ὄρθρος ὁ δὲ εἶπεν οὐ μή σε ἀποστείλω ἐὰν μή με εὐλογήσῃς

28 εἶπεν δὲ αὐτῷ τί τὸ ὄνομά σού ἐστιν ὁ δὲ εἶπεν Ιακωβ

29 εἶπεν δὲ αὐτῷ οὐ κληθήσεται ἔτι τὸ ὄνομά σου Ιακωβ ἀλλὰ Ισραηλ ἔσται τὸ ὄνομά σου ὅτι ἐνίσχυσας μετὰ θεοῦ καὶ μετὰ ἀνθρώπων δυνατός

30 ἠρώτησεν δὲ Ιακωβ καὶ εἶπεν ἀνάγγειλόν μοι τὸ ὄνομά σου καὶ εἶπεν ἵνα τί τοῦτο ἐρωτᾷς τὸ ὄνομά μου καὶ ηὐλόγησεν αὐτὸν ἐκεῖ

31 καὶ ἐκάλεσεν Ιακωβ τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ τόπου ἐκείνου Εἶδος θεοῦ εἶδον γὰρ θεὸν πρόσωπον πρὸς πρόσωπον καὶ ἐσώθη μου ἡ ψυχή

32 ἀνέτειλεν δὲ αὐτῷ ὁ ἥλιος ἡνίκα παρῆλθεν τὸ Εἶδος τοῦ θεοῦ αὐτὸς δὲ ἐπέσκαζεν τῷ μηρῷ αὐτοῦ

33 ἕνεκεν τούτου οὐ μὴ φάγωσιν οἱ υἱοὶ Ισραηλ τὸ νεῦρον ὃ ἐνάρκησεν ὅ ἐστιν ἐπὶ τοῦ πλάτους τοῦ μηροῦ ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης ὅτι ἥψατο τοῦ πλάτους τοῦ μηροῦ Ιακωβ τοῦ νεύρου καὶ ἐνάρκησεν

1 Jacob quoque abiit itinere quo cœperat: fueruntque ei obviam angeli Dei.

2 Quos cum vidisset, ait: Castra Dei sunt hæc: et appellavit nomen loci illius Mahanaim, id est, Castra.

3 Misit autem et nuntios ante se ad Esau fratrem suum in terram Seir, in regionem Edom:

4 præcepitque eis, dicens: Sic loquimini domino meo Esau: Hæc dicit frater tuus Jacob: Apud Laban peregrinatus sum, et fui usque in præsentem diem.

5 Habeo boves, et asinos, et oves, et servos, et ancillas: mittoque nunc legationem ad dominum meum, ut inveniam gratiam in conspectu tuo.

6 Reversique sunt nuntii ad Jacob, dicentes: Venimus ad Esau fratrem tuum, et ecce properat tibi in occursum cum quadringentis viris.

7 Timuit Jacob valde: et perterritus divisit populum qui secum erat, greges quoque et oves, et boves, et camelos, in duas turmas,

8 dicens: Si venerit Esau ad unam turmam, et percusserit eam, alia turma, quæ relicta est, salvabitur.

9 Dixitque Jacob: Deus patris mei Abraham, et Deus patris mei Isaac: Domine qui dixisti mihi: Revertere in terram tuam, et in locum nativitatis tuæ, et benefaciam tibi:

10 minor sum cunctis miserationibus tuis, et veritate tua quam explevisti servo tuo. In baculo meo transivi Jordanem istum: et nunc cum duabus turmis regredior.

11 Erue me de manu fratris mei Esau, quia valde eum timeo: ne forte veniens percutiat matrem cum filiis.

12 Tu locutus es quod benefaceres mihi, et dilatares semen meum sicut arenam maris, quæ præ multitudine numerari non potest.

13 Cumque dormisset ibi nocte illa, separavit de his quæ habebat, munera Esau fratri suo,

14 capras ducentas, hircos viginti, oves ducentas, et arietes viginti,

15 camelos fœtas cum pullis suis triginta, vaccas quadraginta, et tauros viginti, asinas viginti et pullos earum decem.

16 Et misit per manus servorum suorum singulos seorsum greges, dixitque pueris suis: Antecedite me, et sit spatium inter gregem et gregem.

17 Et præcepit priori, dicens: Si obvium habueris fratrem meum Esau, et interrogaverit te: Cujus es? aut, Quo vadis? aut, Cujus sunt ista quæ sequeris?

18 respondebis: Servi tui Jacob, munera misit domino meo Esau, ipse quoque post nos venit.

19 Similiter dedit mandata secundo, et tertio, et cunctis qui sequebantur greges, dicens: Iisdem verbis loquimini ad Esau cum inveneritis eum.

20 Et addetis: Ipse quoque servus tuus Jacob iter nostrum insequitur. Dixit enim: Placabo illum muneribus quæ præcedunt, et postea videbo illum: forsitan propitiabitur mihi.

21 Præcesserunt itaque munera ante eum, ipse vero mansit nocte illa in castris.

22 Cumque mature surrexisset, tulit duas uxores suas, et totidem famulas cum undecim filiis, et transivit vadum Jaboc.

23 Traductisque omnibus quæ ad se pertinebant,

24 mansit solus: et ecce vir luctabatur cum eo usque mane.

25 Qui cum videret quod eum superare non posset, tetigit nervum femoris ejus, et statim emarcuit.

26 Dixitque ad eum: Dimitte me: jam enim ascendit aurora. Respondit: Non dimittam te, nisi benedixeris mihi.

27 Ait ergo: Quod nomen est tibi? Respondit: Jacob.

28 At ille: Nequaquam, inquit, Jacob appellabitur nomen tuum, sed Israël: quoniam si contra Deum fortis fuisti, quanto magis contra homines prævalebis?

29 Interrogavit eum Jacob: Dic mihi, quo appellaris nomine? Respondit: Cur quæris nomen meum? Et benedixit ei in eodem loco.

30 Vocavitque Jacob nomen loci illius Phanuel, dicens: Vidi Deum facie ad faciem, et salva facta est anima mea.

31 Ortusque est ei statim sol, postquam transgressus est Phanuel: ipse vero claudicabat pede.

32 Quam ob causam non comedunt nervum filii Israël, qui emarcuit in femore Jacob, usque in præsentem diem: eo quod tetigerit nervum femoris ejus, et obstupuerit.
