CHAP. XXXIII.
1 The kindnesse of Iacob and Esau at their meeting.
17 Iacob commeth to Succoth. 18 At
Salem he buyeth a field, and buildeth an Altar
called Elohe Israel.
1
And Iacob lifted vp his
eyes, and looked, and behold,
Esau came, and with
him foure hundreth men:
and hee diuided the children
vnto Leah, and vnto Rachel, and
vnto the two handmaids.
2
And he put the handmaides, and
their chidren foremost, and Leah and
her children after, and Rachel and Ioseph
hindermost.
3
And hee passed ouer before them,
and bowed himselfe to the ground seuen
times, vntill hee came neere to his
brother.
4
And Esau ran to meete him, and
imbraced him, and fell on his necke, and
kissed him, and they wept.
5
And he lift vp his eyes, and sawe
the women, and the children, and said,
who are those note with thee? And he said,
The children which God hath graciously
giuen thy seruant.
6
Then the handmaidens came
neere; they and their children, and they
bowed themselues.
-- --
Iacob and Esau.
7
And Leah also with her children
came neere, and bowed themselues: and
after came Ioseph neere and Rachel,
and they bowed themselues.
8
And he said, note What meanest thou
by all this droue, which I met? And
he said, These are to find grace in the sight
of my lord.
9
And Esau said, I haue enough:
my brother, note keepe that thou hast vnto
thy selfe.
10
And Iacob saide, Nay, I pray
thee: if now I haue found grace in thy
sight, then receiue my present at my
hand: for therefore I haue seene thy
face, as though I had seene the face of
God; and thou wast pleased with me.
11
Take, I pray thee, my blessing
that is brought to thee; because God
hath dealt graciously with mee, and because
I haue enough: and hee vrged
him, and he tooke it.
12
And he said, Let vs take our iourney,
and let vs goe, and I will goe before
thee.
13
And hee said vnto him, My lord
knoweth, that the children are tender,
and the flockes and heards with yong
are with mee: and if men should ouer-driue
them one day, all the flocke
will die.
14
Let my lord, I pray thee, passe ouer
before his seruant, and I will leade
on softly, according note as the cattell that
goeth before me, and the children be able
to endure, vntill I come vnto my lord
vnto Seir.
15
And Esau said, Let me now note leaue
with thee some of the folke that are with
me: And hee said, note What needeth it? let
me finde grace in the sight of my lord.
16
¶ So Esau returned that day, on
his way vnto Seir.
17
And Iacob iourneyed to Succoth,
and built him an house, and made
boothes for his cattell: therefore the
name of the place is called note Succoth.
18
¶ And Iacob came to Shalem, a
citie of note Shechem, which is the land
of Canaan, when he came from Padan
Aram, and pitched his tent before the
Citie.
19
And he bought a parcell of a field
where hee had spread his tent, at the
hand of the children of note Hamor Shechems
father, for an hundred note pieces of
money.
20
And hee erected there an Altar,
and called it note El-Elohe-Israel.
Dinah defiled.
