Genesis 32:6-8

Easy-to-Read Version

⁶ The messengers came back to Jacob and said, “We went to your brother Esau. He is coming to meet you. He has 400 men with him.”

⁷ Jacob was very frightened and worried. He divided the people who were with him and all the flocks, herds, and camels into two groups. ⁸ Jacob thought, “If Esau comes and destroys one group, the other group can run away and be saved.”
