1Jacob also went on his way, and the angels of God met him. 1וְיַעֲקֹ֖ב הָלַ֣ךְ לְדַרְכּ֑וֹ וַיִּפְגְּעוּ־ ב֖וֹ מַלְאֲכֵ֥י אֱלֹהִֽים׃
2When [Jacob] saw them, [he] said, “This is the camp of God.” So he named that place Mahanaim. 2וַיֹּ֤אמֶר יַעֲקֹב֙ כַּאֲשֶׁ֣ר רָאָ֔ם מַחֲנֵ֥ה אֱלֹהִ֖ים זֶ֑ה וַיִּקְרָ֛א שֵֽׁם־ הַמָּק֥וֹם הַה֖וּא מַֽחֲנָֽיִם׃ פ
3Jacob sent messengers ahead of him to his brother Esau in the land of Seir, the country of Edom. 3וַיִּשְׁלַ֨ח יַעֲקֹ֤ב מַלְאָכִים֙ לְפָנָ֔יו אֶל־ עֵשָׂ֖ו אָחִ֑יו אַ֥רְצָה שֵׂעִ֖יר שְׂדֵ֥ה אֱדֽוֹם׃
4He instructed them, “You are to say to my master Esau, ‘Your servant Jacob says: I have been staying with Laban and have remained there until now. 4וַיְצַ֤ו אֹתָם֙ לֵאמֹ֔ר כֹּ֣ה תֹאמְר֔וּן לַֽאדֹנִ֖י לְעֵשָׂ֑ו כֹּ֤ה אָמַר֙ עַבְדְּךָ֣ יַעֲקֹ֔ב עִם־ לָבָ֣ן גַּ֔רְתִּי וָאֵחַ֖ר עַד־ עָֽתָּה׃
5I have oxen, donkeys, flocks, menservants, and maidservants. I have sent this message to inform my master, so that I may find favor in your sight.’” 5וַֽיְהִי־ לִי֙ שׁ֣וֹר וַחֲמ֔וֹר צֹ֖אן וְעֶ֣בֶד וְשִׁפְחָ֑ה וָֽאֶשְׁלְחָה֙ לְהַגִּ֣יד לַֽאדֹנִ֔י לִמְצֹא־ חֵ֖ן בְּעֵינֶֽיךָ׃
6When the messengers returned to Jacob, they said, “We went to your brother Esau; he is coming to meet you— he and four hundred men with him.” 6וַיָּשֻׁ֙בוּ֙ הַמַּלְאָכִ֔ים אֶֽל־ יַעֲקֹ֖ב לֵאמֹ֑ר בָּ֤אנוּ אֶל־ אָחִ֙יךָ֙ אֶל־ עֵשָׂ֔ו וְגַם֙ הֹלֵ֣ךְ לִקְרָֽאתְךָ֔ וְאַרְבַּע־ מֵא֥וֹת אִ֖ישׁ עִמּֽוֹ׃
7In great fear and distress, Jacob divided his people into two camps, as well as the flocks and herds and camels. 7וַיִּירָ֧א יַעֲקֹ֛ב מְאֹ֖ד וַיֵּ֣צֶר ל֑וֹ וַיַּ֜חַץ אֶת־ הָעָ֣ם אֲשֶׁר־ אִתּ֗וֹ וְאֶת־ הַצֹּ֧אן וְאֶת־ הַבָּקָ֛ר וְהַגְּמַלִּ֖ים לִשְׁנֵ֥י מַחֲנֽוֹת׃
8He thought, “If Esau comes and attacks one camp, then the other camp can escape.” 8וַיֹּ֕אמֶר אִם־ יָב֥וֹא עֵשָׂ֛ו אֶל־ הַמַּחֲנֶ֥ה הָאַחַ֖ת וְהִכָּ֑הוּ וְהָיָ֛ה הַמַּחֲנֶ֥ה הַנִּשְׁאָ֖ר לִפְלֵיטָֽה׃
9Then Jacob declared, “O God of my father Abraham, God of my father Isaac, the LORD who told me, ‘Go back to your country and to your kindred, and I will make you prosper,’ 9וַיֹּאמֶר֮ יַעֲקֹב֒ אֱלֹהֵי֙ אָבִ֣י אַבְרָהָ֔ם וֵאלֹהֵ֖י אָבִ֣י יִצְחָ֑ק יְהוָ֞ה הָאֹמֵ֣ר אֵלַ֗י שׁ֧וּב לְאַרְצְךָ֛ וּלְמוֹלַדְתְּךָ֖ וְאֵיטִ֥יבָה עִמָּֽךְ׃
10I am unworthy of all the kindness and faithfulness You have shown Your servant. Indeed, with only my staff I came across the Jordan, but now I have become two camps. 10קָטֹ֜נְתִּי מִכֹּ֤ל הַחֲסָדִים֙ וּמִכָּל־ הָ֣אֱמֶ֔ת אֲשֶׁ֥ר עָשִׂ֖יתָ אֶת־ עַבְדֶּ֑ךָ כִּ֣י בְמַקְלִ֗י עָבַ֙רְתִּי֙ אֶת־ הַיַּרְדֵּ֣ן הַזֶּ֔ה וְעַתָּ֥ה הָיִ֖יתִי לִשְׁנֵ֥י מַחֲנֽוֹת׃
11Please deliver me from the hand of my brother Esau, for I am afraid that he may come and attack me, and also the mothers and their children [with me]. 11הַצִּילֵ֥נִי נָ֛א מִיַּ֥ד אָחִ֖י מִיַּ֣ד עֵשָׂ֑ו כִּֽי־ יָרֵ֤א אָנֹכִי֙ אֹת֔וֹ פֶּן־ יָב֣וֹא וְהִכַּ֔נִי אֵ֖ם עַל־ בָּנִֽים׃
12But You have said, ‘I will surely make you prosper, and I will make your offspring like the sand of the sea, too numerous to count.’” 12וְאַתָּ֣ה אָמַ֔רְתָּ הֵיטֵ֥ב אֵיטִ֖יב עִמָּ֑ךְ וְשַׂמְתִּ֤י אֶֽת־ זַרְעֲךָ֙ כְּח֣וֹל הַיָּ֔ם אֲשֶׁ֥ר לֹא־ יִסָּפֵ֖ר מֵרֹֽב׃
13[Jacob] spent the night there, and from what he had brought with him, he selected a gift for his brother Esau: 13וַיָּ֥לֶן שָׁ֖ם בַּלַּ֣יְלָה הַה֑וּא וַיִּקַּ֞ח מִן־ הַבָּ֧א בְיָד֛וֹ מִנְחָ֖ה לְעֵשָׂ֥ו אָחִֽיו׃
14200 female goats, 20 male goats, 200 ewes, 20 rams, 14עִזִּ֣ים מָאתַ֔יִם וּתְיָשִׁ֖ים עֶשְׂרִ֑ים רְחֵלִ֥ים מָאתַ֖יִם וְאֵילִ֥ים עֶשְׂרִֽים׃
1530 milk camels with their young, 40 cows, 10 bulls, 20 female donkeys, and 10 male donkeys. 15גְּמַלִּ֧ים מֵינִיק֛וֹת וּבְנֵיהֶ֖ם שְׁלֹשִׁ֑ים פָּר֤וֹת אַרְבָּעִים֙ וּפָרִ֣ים עֲשָׂרָ֔ה אֲתֹנֹ֣ת עֶשְׂרִ֔ים וַעְיָרִ֖ם‪‬ עֲשָׂרָֽה׃
16He entrusted them to his servants in separate herds and told them, “Go on ahead of me, and keep some distance between the herds.” 16וַיִּתֵּן֙ בְּיַד־ עֲבָדָ֔יו עֵ֥דֶר עֵ֖דֶר לְבַדּ֑וֹ וַ֤יֹּאמֶר אֶל־ עֲבָדָיו֙ עִבְר֣וּ לְפָנַ֔י וְרֶ֣וַח תָּשִׂ֔ימוּ בֵּ֥ין עֵ֖דֶר וּבֵ֥ין עֵֽדֶר׃
17He instructed the one in the lead, “When my brother Esau meets you and asks, ‘To whom do you belong, where are you going, and whose animals are these before you?’ 17וַיְצַ֥ו אֶת־ הָרִאשׁ֖וֹן לֵאמֹ֑ר כִּ֣י יִֽפְגָּשְׁךָ֞‪‬ עֵשָׂ֣ו אָחִ֗י וִשְׁאֵֽלְךָ֙‪‬ לֵאמֹ֔ר לְמִי־ אַ֙תָּה֙ וְאָ֣נָה תֵלֵ֔ךְ וּלְמִ֖י אֵ֥לֶּה לְפָנֶֽיךָ׃
18then you are to say, ‘They belong to your servant Jacob. They are a gift, sent to my lord Esau. And behold, [Jacob] is behind us.’” 18וְאָֽמַרְתָּ֙ לְעַבְדְּךָ֣ לְיַעֲקֹ֔ב מִנְחָ֥ה הִוא֙ שְׁלוּחָ֔ה לַֽאדֹנִ֖י לְעֵשָׂ֑ו וְהִנֵּ֥ה גַם־ ה֖וּא אַחֲרֵֽינוּ׃
19He also instructed the second, the third, and all those following behind the herds: “When you meet Esau, you are to say the same thing to him. 19וַיְצַ֞ו גַּ֣ם אֶת־ הַשֵּׁנִ֗י גַּ֚ם אֶת־ הַשְּׁלִישִׁ֔י גַּ֚ם אֶת־ כָּל־ הַהֹ֣לְכִ֔ים אַחֲרֵ֥י הָעֲדָרִ֖ים לֵאמֹ֑ר כַּדָּבָ֤ר הַזֶּה֙ תְּדַבְּר֣וּן אֶל־ עֵשָׂ֔ו בְּמֹצַאֲכֶ֖ם אֹתֽוֹ׃
20You are also to say, ‘Look, your servant Jacob is right behind us.’” For he thought, “I will appease [Esau] with the gift that is going before me. After that I can face him, and perhaps he will accept me.” 20וַאֲמַרְתֶּ֕ם גַּ֗ם הִנֵּ֛ה עַבְדְּךָ֥ יַעֲקֹ֖ב אַחֲרֵ֑ינוּ כִּֽי־ אָמַ֞ר אֲכַפְּרָ֣ה פָנָ֗יו בַּמִּנְחָה֙ הַהֹלֶ֣כֶת לְפָנָ֔י וְאַחֲרֵי־ כֵן֙ אֶרְאֶ֣ה פָנָ֔יו אוּלַ֖י יִשָּׂ֥א פָנָֽי׃
21So [Jacob’s] gifts went on before him, while he spent the night in the camp. 21וַתַּעֲבֹ֥ר הַמִּנְחָ֖ה עַל־ פָּנָ֑יו וְה֛וּא לָ֥ן בַּלַּֽיְלָה־ הַה֖וּא בַּֽמַּחֲנֶֽה׃
22During the night Jacob got up and took his two wives, his two maidservants, and his eleven sons, and crossed the ford of Jabbok. 22וַיָּ֣קָם ׀ בַּלַּ֣יְלָה ה֗וּא וַיִּקַּ֞ח אֶת־ שְׁתֵּ֤י נָשָׁיו֙ וְאֶת־ שְׁתֵּ֣י שִׁפְחֹתָ֔יו וְאֶת־ אַחַ֥ד עָשָׂ֖ר יְלָדָ֑יו וַֽיַּעֲבֹ֔ר אֵ֖ת מַעֲבַ֥ר יַבֹּֽק׃
23He took them and sent them across the stream, along with all his possessions. 23וַיִּקָּחֵ֔ם וַיַּֽעֲבִרֵ֖ם אֶת־ הַנָּ֑חַל וַֽיַּעֲבֵ֖ר אֶת־ אֲשֶׁר־ לוֹ׃‪‬
24So Jacob was left all alone, and [there] a man wrestled with him until daybreak. 24וַיִּוָּתֵ֥ר יַעֲקֹ֖ב לְבַדּ֑וֹ וַיֵּאָבֵ֥ק אִישׁ֙ עִמּ֔וֹ עַ֖ד עֲל֥וֹת הַשָּֽׁחַר׃
25When the man saw that He could not overpower [Jacob], He struck the socket of Jacob’s hip and dislocated [it] as they wrestled. 25וַיַּ֗רְא כִּ֣י לֹ֤א יָכֹל֙ ל֔וֹ וַיִּגַּ֖ע בְּכַף־ יְרֵכ֑וֹ וַתֵּ֙קַע֙ כַּף־ יֶ֣רֶךְ יַעֲקֹ֔ב בְּהֵֽאָבְק֖וֹ עִמּֽוֹ׃
26Then [the man] said, “Let Me go, for it is daybreak.” But Jacob replied, “I will not let You go unless You bless me.” 26וַיֹּ֣אמֶר שַׁלְּחֵ֔נִי כִּ֥י עָלָ֖ה הַשָּׁ֑חַר וַיֹּ֙אמֶר֙ לֹ֣א אֲשַֽׁלֵּחֲךָ֔ כִּ֖י אִם־ בֵּרַכְתָּֽנִי׃
27“What is your name?” the man asked. “Jacob,” he replied. 27וַיֹּ֥אמֶר אֵלָ֖יו מַה־ שְּׁמֶ֑ךָ וַיֹּ֖אמֶר יַעֲקֹֽב׃
28Then [the man] said, “Your name will no longer be Jacob, but Israel, because you have struggled with God and with men, and you have prevailed.” 28וַיֹּ֗אמֶר לֹ֤א יַעֲקֹב֙ יֵאָמֵ֥ר עוֹד֙ שִׁמְךָ֔ כִּ֖י אִם־ יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל כִּֽי־ שָׂרִ֧יתָ עִם־ אֱלֹהִ֛ים וְעִם־ אֲנָשִׁ֖ים וַתּוּכָֽל׃
29Then Jacob asked him, “Please tell me Your name.” “Why do you ask My name?” he replied. And He blessed [Jacob] there. 29וַיִּשְׁאַ֣ל יַעֲקֹ֗ב וַיֹּ֙אמֶר֙ הַגִּֽידָה־ נָּ֣א שְׁמֶ֔ךָ וַיֹּ֕אמֶר לָ֥מָּה זֶּ֖ה תִּשְׁאַ֣ל לִשְׁמִ֑י וַיְבָ֥רֶךְ אֹת֖וֹ שָֽׁם׃
30So Jacob named the place Peniel, saying, “Indeed, I have seen God face to face, and yet my life was spared.” 30וַיִּקְרָ֧א יַעֲקֹ֛ב שֵׁ֥ם הַמָּק֖וֹם פְּנִיאֵ֑ל כִּֽי־ רָאִ֤יתִי אֱלֹהִים֙ פָּנִ֣ים אֶל־ פָּנִ֔ים וַתִּנָּצֵ֖ל נַפְשִֽׁי׃
31The sun rose above him as he passed by Penuel, and he was limping because of his hip. 31וַיִּֽזְרַֽח־ ל֣וֹ הַשֶּׁ֔מֶשׁ כַּאֲשֶׁ֥ר עָבַ֖ר אֶת־ פְּנוּאֵ֑ל וְה֥וּא צֹלֵ֖עַ עַל־ יְרֵכֽוֹ׃
32Therefore to this day the Israelites do not eat the tendon at the hip socket, because [the man] struck Jacob’s hip socket near that tendon. 32עַל־ כֵּ֡ן לֹֽא־ יֹאכְל֨וּ בְנֵֽי־ יִשְׂרָאֵ֜ל אֶת־ גִּ֣יד הַנָּשֶׁ֗ה אֲשֶׁר֙ עַל־ כַּ֣ף הַיָּרֵ֔ךְ עַ֖ד הַיּ֣וֹם הַזֶּ֑ה כִּ֤י נָגַע֙ בְּכַף־ יֶ֣רֶךְ יַעֲקֹ֔ב בְּגִ֖יד הַנָּשֶֽׁה׃
