9. Jacob said, "Lord, God of my father Abraham, God of my father Isaac, who said to me, ‘Go back to your country and your relatives, and I’ll make sure things go well for you,’
10. I don’t deserve how loyal and truthful you’ve been to your servant. I went away across the Jordan with just my staff, but now I’ve become two camps.
11. Save me from my brother Esau! I’m afraid he will come and kill me, the mothers, and their children.
12. You were the one who told me, ‘I will make sure things go well for you, and I will make your descendants like the sand of the sea, so many you won’t be able to count them.’"
13. Jacob spent that night there. From what he had acquired, he set aside a gift for his brother Esau:
14. two hundred female goats and twenty male goats, two hundred ewes and twenty rams,
15. thirty nursing camels with their young, forty cows and ten bulls, and twenty female donkeys and ten male donkeys.
