Genesis 33:7-11 God's Word Translation (GW)

7. Likewise, Leah and her children came forward and bowed down. Finally, Joseph and Rachel came forward and bowed down.

8. Then Esau asked, “Why did you send this whole group ⌊of people and animals⌋ I met?”He answered, “To win your favor, sir.”

9. Esau said, “I have enough. Keep what you have, Brother.”

10. Jacob said, “No, please take the gift I’m giving you, because I’ve seen your face as if I were seeing the face of God, and yet you welcomed me so warmly.

11. Please take the present I’ve brought you, because God has been gracious to me and has given me all that I need.” So Esau took it because Jacob insisted.
