19 Likewise he commanded the second and the third and all that followed the droves, saying, “This is what you are to say to Esau when you find him.
20 Moreover, say, ‘Your servant Jacob is behind us.’ ” For he said, “I will appease him with the gift that goes before me, and then I will see his face. Perhaps he will accept me.”
21 So the gift went before him, but he lodged that night in the encampment.
22 The same night he arose and took his two wives, his two female servants, and his eleven sons, and crossed over the ford of the Jabbok.
23 He took them and sent them across the stream along with all that he had.
24 Jacob was left alone, and a man wrestled with him there until daybreak.
25 When the man saw that He did not prevail against Jacob, He touched the socket of his thigh, so the socket of Jacob’s thigh was dislocated, as he wrestled with Him.
