They were both crying. 5 When Esau looked around and saw the women and the children, he asked, "Who are these people with you?"
"These, sir, are the children whom God has been good enough to give me," Jacob answered. 6 Then the concubines came up with their children and bowed down; 7 then Leahand her children came, and last of all Josephand Rachelcame and bowed down.
8 Esau asked, "What about that other group I met? What did that mean?"
Jacob answered, "It was to gain your favor."
9 But Esausaid, "I have enough, my brother; keep what you have."
10 Jacobsaid, "No, please, if I have gained your favor, accept my gift. To see your face is for me like seeing the face of God, now that you have been so friendly to me. 11 Please accept this gift which I have brought for you; God has been kind to me and given me everything I need." Jacob kept on urging him until he accepted.
12 Esausaid, "Let’s get ready and leave. I will go ahead of you."
13 Jacob answered, "You know that the children are weak, and I must think of the sheep and livestock with their young. If they are driven hard for even one day, the whole herd will die. 14 Please go on ahead of me, and I will follow slowly, going as fast as I can with the livestock and the children until I catch up with you in Edom."
15 Esausaid, "Then let me leave some of my men with you."
But Jacob answered, "There is no need for that for I only want to gain your favor."33.15: for I only want to gain your favor; or if it’s all right with you.16 So that day Esaustarted on his way back to Edom. 17 But Jacobwent to Sukkoth, where he built a house for himself and shelters for his livestock.
