Genesis 32:6-8

GOD’S WORD Translation

⁶ When the messengers came back to Jacob, they said, “We went to your brother Esau. He is coming to meet you with 400 men.”

⁷ Jacob was terrified and distressed. So he divided the people, the sheep and goats, the cattle, and the camels into two camps. ⁸ He thought, “If Esau attacks the one camp, then the other camp will be able to escape.”
