Genesis 32:20-22
International Standard Version
20 You are to tell him, ‘Look! Your servant Jacob is coming along behind us.’”
Jacob was thinking, “I’ll pacify him with the presents that are being sent ahead of me. Then, when I meet him,[a] perhaps he’ll accept me.”[b] 21 So the presents went[c] ahead of him, while he spent that night in the camp. 22 Later that night, he woke up, quickly took his two wives, his[d] two women servants, and his eleven children, and forded the river at Jabbok.
