- He delivered them into the hand of his servants, every drove by itself, and said to his servants, "Pass on before me, and put a space between droves."
- He commanded the one in front, saying, "When my brother Esau meets you and asks you, saying, 'To whom do you belong, and where are you going, and to whom do these animals in front of you belong?'
- then you shall say, 'These belong to your servant Jacob; it is a present sent to my lord Esau. And behold, he also is behind us.'"
- Then he commanded also the second and the third, and all those who followed the droves, saying, "After this manner you shall speak to Esau when you find him;
- and you shall say, 'Behold, your servant Jacob also is behind us.'" For he said, "I will appease him with the present that goes before me. Then afterward I will see his face; perhaps he will accept me."

- 每樣各分一群、交在僕人手下、就對僕人說、你們要在我前頭過去、使群群相離有空閒的地方。
- 又吩咐儘先走的說、我哥哥以掃遇見你的時候、問你說、你是那家的人、要往那裡去、你前頭這些是誰的.
- 你就說、是你僕人雅各的、是送給我主以掃的禮物、他自己也在我們後邊。
- 又吩咐第二、第三、和一切趕群畜的人說、你們遇見以掃的時候、也要這樣對他說.
- 並且你們要說、你僕人雅各在我們後邊.因雅各心裡說、我藉著在我前頭去的禮物解他的恨、然後再見他的面、或者他容納我。
