| 32:1 | And Jacob went on his way, and the angels of God met him. |
| 32:2 | And when Jacob saw them, he said, This is God's host: and he called the name of that place Mahanaim. |
| 32:2 | 雅各看見他們就說、這是 神的軍兵．於是給那地方起名叫瑪哈念〔就是二軍兵的意思〕。 |

| jos:5:14 | And he said, Nay; but as captain of the host of the LORD am I now come. And Joshua fell on his face to the earth, and did worship, and said unto him, What saith my lord unto his servant? |
| luk:2:13 | And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, |
| jos:21:38 | And out of the tribe of Gad, Ramoth in Gilead with her suburbs, to be a city of refuge for the slayer; and Mahanaim with her suburbs, |
| 2sa:2:8 | But Abner the son of Ner, captain of Saul's host, took Ishbosheth the son of Saul, and brought him over to Mahanaim; |
| 2sa:17:24 | Then David came to Mahanaim. And Absalom passed over Jordan, he and all the men of Israel with him. |
| 2sa:17:27 | And it came to pass, when David was come to Mahanaim, that Shobi the son of Nahash of Rabbah of the children of Ammon, and Machir the son of Ammiel of Lodebar, and Barzillai the Gileadite of Rogelim, |
| 1ki:2:8 | And, behold, thou hast with thee Shimei the son of Gera, a Benjamite of Bahurim, which cursed me with a grievous curse in the day when I went to Mahanaim: but he came down to meet me at Jordan, and I sware to him by the LORD, saying, I will not put thee to death with the sword. |

| 32:3 | And Jacob sent messengers before him to Esau his brother unto the land of Seir, the country of Edom. |
| 32:4 | And he commanded them, saying, Thus shall ye speak unto my lord Esau; Thy servant Jacob saith thus, I have sojourned with Laban, and stayed there until now: |
| 32:5 | And I have oxen, and asses, flocks, and menservants, and womenservants: and I have sent to tell my lord, that I may find grace in thy sight. |
| 32:6 | And the messengers returned to Jacob, saying, We came to thy brother Esau, and also he cometh to meet thee, and four hundred men with him. |
| 32:7 | Then Jacob was greatly afraid and distressed: and he divided the people that was with him, and the flocks, and herds, and the camels, into two bands; |
| 32:8 | And said, If Esau come to the one company, and smite it, then the other company which is left shall escape. |
| 32:9 | And Jacob said, O God of my father Abraham, and God of my father Isaac, the LORD which saidst unto me, Return unto thy country, and to thy kindred, and I will deal well with thee: |
| 32:10 | I am not worthy of the least of all the mercies, and of all the truth, which thou hast shewed unto thy servant; for with my staff I passed over this Jordan; and now I am become two bands. |
| 32:11 | Deliver me, I pray thee, from the hand of my brother, from the hand of Esau: for I fear him, lest he will come and smite me, and the mother with the children. |
| 32:12 | And thou saidst, I will surely do thee good, and make thy seed as the sand of the sea, which cannot be numbered for multitude. |
| 32:13 | And he lodged there that same night; and took of that which came to his hand a present for Esau his brother; |
| 32:14 | Two hundred she goats, and twenty he goats, two hundred ewes, and twenty rams, |
| 32:15 | Thirty milch camels with their colts, forty kine, and ten bulls, twenty she asses, and ten foals. |
| 32:16 | And he delivered them into the hand of his servants, every drove by themselves; and said unto his servants, Pass over before me, and put a space betwixt drove and drove. |
| 32:17 | And he commanded the foremost, saying, When Esau my brother meeteth thee, and asketh thee, saying, Whose art thou? and whither goest thou? and whose are these before thee? |
| 32:18 | Then thou shalt say, They be thy servant Jacob's; it is a present sent unto my lord Esau: and, behold, also he is behind us. |
| 32:19 | And so commanded he the second, and the third, and all that followed the droves, saying, On this manner shall ye speak unto Esau, when ye find him. |
| 32:20 | And say ye moreover, Behold, thy servant Jacob is behind us. For he said, I will appease him with the present that goeth before me, and afterward I will see his face; peradventure he will accept of me. |
| 32:21 | So went the present over before him: and himself lodged that night in the company. |
| 32:22 | And he rose up that night, and took his two wives, and his two womenservants, and his eleven sons, and passed over the ford Jabbok. |
| 32:23 | And he took them, and sent them over the brook, and sent over that he had. |
| 32:24 | And Jacob was left alone; and there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of the day. |
| 32:25 | And when he saw that he prevailed not against him, he touched the hollow of his thigh; and the hollow of Jacob's thigh was out of joint, as he wrestled with him. |
| 32:26 | And he said, Let me go, for the day breaketh. And he said, I will not let thee go, except thou bless me. |
| 32:27 | And he said unto him, What is thy name? And he said, Jacob. |
| 32:28 | And he said, Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel: for as a prince hast thou power with God and with men, and hast prevailed. |
| 32:29 | And Jacob asked him, and said, Tell me, I pray thee, thy name. And he said, Wherefore is it that thou dost ask after my name? And he blessed him there. |
| 32:30 | And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved. |
| 32:31 | And as he passed over Penuel the sun rose upon him, and he halted upon his thigh. |
| 32:32 | Therefore the children of Israel eat not of the sinew which shrank, which is upon the hollow of the thigh, unto this day: because he touched the hollow of Jacob's thigh in the sinew that shrank. |
