Genesis 33:4-13 World Messianic Bible British Edition (WMBBE)

4. Esau ran to meet him, embraced him, fell on his neck, kissed him, and they wept.

5. He lifted up his eyes, and saw the women and the children; and said, “Who are these with you?”He said, “The children whom God has graciously given your servant.”

6. Then the servants came near with their children, and they bowed themselves.

7. Leah also and her children came near, and bowed themselves. After them, Joseph came near with Rachel, and they bowed themselves.

8. Esau said, “What do you mean by all this company which I met?”Jacob said, “To find favour in the sight of my lord.”

9. Esau said, “I have enough, my brother; let that which you have be yours.”

10. Jacob said, “Please, no, if I have now found favour in your sight, then receive my present at my hand, because I have seen your face, as one sees the face of God, and you were pleased with me.

11. Please take the gift that I brought to you, because God has dealt graciously with me, and because I have enough.” He urged him, and he took it.

12. Esau said, “Let’s take our journey, and let’s go, and I will go before you.”

13. Jacob said to him, “My lord knows that the children are tender, and that the flocks and herds with me have their young, and if they overdrive them one day, all the flocks will die.
