VaYishlach – Genesis 32:4 – 33:20 Torah – Aramaic ES Version of the Peshetta Gen 32:4 He commanded them, saying, "This is what you shall tell my lord, Esau: 'This is what your servant, Ya'aqub, says. I have lived as a foreigner with Laban, and stayed until now. Gen 32:5 I have cattle, donkeys, flocks, male servants, and female servants. I have sent to tell my lord, that I may find favour in your sight.'" Gen 32:6 The messengers returned to Ya'aqub, saying, "We came to your brother Esau. Not only that, but he comes to meet you, and four hundred men with him." Gen 32:7 Then Ya'aqub was greatly afraid and was distressed. He divided the people who were with him, and the flocks, and the herds, and the camels, into two companies; Gen 32:8 and he said, "If Esau comes to the one company, and strikes it, then the company which is left will escape." Gen 32:9 Ya'aqub said, "God of my father Abraham, and God of my father Isaac, Mar-Yah, who said to me, 'Return to your country, and to your relatives, and I will do you good,' Gen 32:10 I am not worthy of the least of all the loving kindnesses, and of all the truth, which you have shown to your servant; for with just my staff I passed over this Yordan; and now I have become two companies. Gen 32:11 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.
