Genesis 32:12-20 Amplified Bible (AMP)

12. And You said, I will surely do you good and make your descendants as the sand of the sea, which cannot be numbered for multitude.

13. And Jacob lodged there that night and took from what he had with him as a present for his brother Esau:

14. Two hundred she-goats, 20 he-goats, 200 ewes, 20 rams,

15. Thirty milk camels with their colts, 40 cows, 10 bulls, 20 she-donkeys, and 10 [donkey] colts.

16. And he put them into the charge of his servants, every drove by itself, and said to his servants, Pass over before me and put a space between drove and drove.

17. And he commanded the first, When Esau my brother meets you and asks to whom you belong, where you are going, and whose are the animals before you,

18. Then you shall say, They are your servant Jacob's; it is a present sent to my lord Esau; and moreover, he is behind us.

19. And so he commanded the second and the third and all that followed the droves, saying, This is what you are to say to Esau when you meet him.

20. And say, Moreover, your servant Jacob is behind us. For he said, I will appease him with the present that goes before me, and afterward I will see his face; perhaps he will accept me.
