1 | Jacob went on his way, and the angels of God met him. | Ps 91:11 Heb 1:4 1Co 3:22 Eph 3:10 |
2 | When he saw them, Jacob said, "This is God`s host." He called the name of that place Mahanaim. | Jsh 5:14 2Ki 6:17 Ps 34:7 Ps 103:21 Ps 148:2 Dn 10:20 Lk 2:13 |
3 | Jacob sent messengers in front of him to Esau, his brother, to the land of Seir, the field of Edom. | Mal 3:1 Lk 9:52 Lk 14:31 Lk 14:32 |
4 | He commanded them, saying, "This is what you shall tell my lord, Esau: `This is what your servant, Jacob, says. I have sojourned with Laban, and stayed until now. | Gn 32:5 Gn 32:18 Gn 4:7 Gn 23:6 Gn 27:29 Gn 27:37 Gn 33:8 Ex 32:22 1Sa 26:17 Pr 6:3 Pr 15:1 Lk 14:11 1Pe 3:6 |
5 | I have oxen, donkeys, flocks, men-servants, and maid-servants. I have sent to tell my lord, that I may find favor in your sight.`" | Gn 30:43 Gn 31:1 Gn 31:16 Gn 33:11 Jb 6:22 |
6 | The messengers returned to Jacob, saying, "We came to your brother Esau. Not only that, but he comes to meet you, and four hundred men with him." | Gn 32:8 Gn 32:11 Gn 27:40 Gn 27:41 Gn 33:1 Am 5:19 |
7 | Then Jacob was greatly afraid and was distressed: and he divided the people who were with him, and the flocks, and the herds, and the camels, into two companies; | Ex 14:10 Ps 18:4 Ps 18:5 Ps 31:13 Ps 55:4 Ps 55:5 Ps 61:2 Ps 142:4 Mt 8:26 Jn 16:33 Ac 14:22 2Co 1:4 2Co 1:8-10 2Ti 3:12 |
8 | and he said, "If Esau comes to the one company, and strikes it, then the company which is left will escape." | Gn 33:1-3 Mt 10:16 |
9 | Jacob said, "God of my father Abraham, and God of my father Isaac, Yahweh, who said to me, `Return to your country, and to your relatives, and I will do you good.` | 1Sa 30:6 2Ch 20:6 2Ch 20:12 2Ch 32:20 Ps 34:4-6 Ps 50:15 Ps 91:15 Php 4:6 Php 4:7 |
10 | I am not worthy of the least of all the lovingkindnesses, and of all the truth, which you have shown to your servant; for with just my staff I passed over this Jordan; and now I have become two companies. | Gn 18:27 2Sa 7:18 Jb 42:5 Jb 42:6 Ps 16:2 Isa 6:5 Isa 63:7 Dn 9:8 Dn 9:9 Lk 5:8 Lk 17:10 2Co 12:11 1Ti 1:12-15 1Pe 5:5 1Jn 1:8-10 |
11 | Please deliver me from the hand of my brother, from the hand of Esau: for I fear him, lest he come and strike me, and the mothers with the children. | 1Sa 12:10 1Sa 24:15 Ps 16:1 Ps 25:20 Ps 31:2 Ps 43:1 Ps 59:1 Ps 59:2 Ps 119:134 Ps 142:6 Pr 18:19 Dn 3:17 Mt 6:13 |
12 | You said, `I will surely do you good, and make your seed as the sand of the sea, which can`t be numbered because there are so many.`" | Gn 32:6 Ex 32:13 Nm 23:19 1Sa 15:29 Mt 24:35 2Ti 2:13 Tit 1:2 Heb 6:17 |
13 | He lodged there that night, and took from that which he had with him, a present for Esau, his brother: | 1Sa 25:8 |
14 | two hundred female goats and twenty male goats, two hundred ewes and twenty rams, | Gn 30:43 Gn 31:9 Gn 31:16 Dt 8:18 1Sa 25:2 Jb 1:3 Jb 42:12 |
15 | thirty milk camels and their colts, forty cows, ten bulls, twenty she-donkeys and ten foals. |
16 | He delivered them into the hands of his servants, every herd by itself, and said to his servants, "Pass over before me, and put a space between herd and herd." | Gn 32:20 Gn 33:8 Gn 33:9 Ps 112:5 Pr 2:11 Isa 28:26 Mt 10:16 |
17 | He commanded the foremost, saying, "When Esau, my brother, meets you, and asks you, saying, `Whose are you? Where are you going? Whose are these before you?` | Gn 33:3 |
18 | Then you shall say, `They are your servant, Jacob`s. It is a present sent to my lord, Esau. Behold, he also is behind us.`" | Gn 32:4 Gn 32:5 |
19 | He commanded also the second, and the third, and all that followed the herds, saying, "This is how you shall speak to Esau, when you find him. |
20 | You shall say, `Not only that, but behold, 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." | Gn 43:11 1Sa 25:17-35 Jb 42:8 Jb 42:9 Pr 15:18 Pr 16:14 Pr 21:14 |
21 | So the present passed over before him: and he himself lodged that night in the camp. |
22 | He rose up that night, and took his two wives, and his two handmaids, and his eleven sons, and passed over the ford of the Jabbok. | Gn 29:21-35 Gn 30:1-24 Gn 35:18 Gn 35:22-26 1Ti 5:8 |
23 | He took them, and sent them over the stream, and sent over that which he had. |
24 | Jacob was left alone, and wrestled with a man there until the breaking of the day. | Gn 30:8 Lk 13:24 Lk 22:44 Ro 8:26 Ro 8:27 Ro 15:30 Eph 6:12 Eph 6:18 Col 2:1 Col 4:12 Heb 5:7 |
25 | When he saw that he didn`t prevail against him, he touched the hollow of his thigh, and the hollow of Jacob`s thigh was strained, as he wrestled. | Gn 19:22 Nm 14:13 Nm 14:14 Isa 41:14 Isa 45:11 Hos 12:3 Hos 12:4 Mt 15:22-28 Lk 11:5-8 |
26 | The man said, "Let me go, for the day breaks." Jacob said, "I won`t let you go, unless you bless me." | Ex 32:10 Dt 9:14 So 7:5 Isa 45:11 Isa 64:7 Lk 24:28 Lk 24:29 |
27 | He said to him, "What is your name?" He said, "Jacob." |
28 | He said, "Your name will no longer be called `Jacob,` but, `Israel,` for you have fought with God and with men, and have prevailed." | Gn 17:5 Gn 17:15 Gn 33:20 Gn 35:10 Nm 13:16 2Sa 12:25 2Ki 17:34 Isa 62:2-4 Isa 65:15 Jn 1:42 Rev 2:17 |
29 | Jacob asked him, "Please tell me your name." He said, "Why is it that you ask what my name is?" He blessed him there. | Gn 32:27 Dt 29:29 Jg 13:16-18 Jb 11:7 Pr 30:4 Isa 9:6 Lk 1:19 |
30 | Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for, he said, "I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved." | Gn 28:19 Jg 8:8 Jg 8:17 1Ki 12:25 |
31 | The sun rose on him as he passed over Peniel, and he limped because of his thigh. | Gn 19:15 Gn 19:23 Mal 4:2 |
32 | Therefore the children of Israel don`t eat the sinew of the hip, which is on the hollow of the thigh, to this day, because he touched the hollow of Jacob`s thigh in the sinew of the hip. | 1Sa 5:5 |
