1Jacob was on his grind, and then the angels showed up like, "What’s good?"

2Jacob peeped them and was like, "This is God’s squad," and named the spot Mahanaim.

3Jacob sent his crew ahead to Esau, his bro, in the land of Seir, Edom vibes.

4He was like, "Tell my dude Esau, your boy Jacob’s been chillin' with Laban, still here, no cap."

5"I got oxen, donkeys, flocks, and servants, just tryna find some rizz with you, fam."

6The messengers came back, like, "Yo, Esau’s rollin' up to meet you with 400 homies."

7Jacob was shook and stressed, so he split his crew and his stuff into two squads.

8He said, "If Esau hits one group, the other can dip, periodt."

9Jacob prayed, "Yo, God of my pops Abraham and Isaac, you told me to come back and you’d bless me."

10"I ain't worthy of all the good vibes and truth you've shown me; I crossed this Jordan with just my staff, and now I’m rolling deep."

11Yo, help me out from my bro and Esau 'cause I'm lowkey scared he’ll come at me and my fam.

12You said you’d hook me up, make my fam as countless as the sand on the beach, no cap.

13So, he crashed there that night and grabbed some gifts for Esau, his brother.

14Two hundred female goats, twenty male goats, two hundred ewes, and twenty rams, lit.

15Thirty milking camels with their babies, forty cows, and ten bulls, plus twenty female donkeys and ten foals.

16He split them up for his squad, telling them to go ahead and keep space between the groups.

17He told the first group, “When Esau meets you and asks whose you are and where you’re headed, what’s the vibe?”

18Just say, “These are for your boy Jacob; it’s a gift for my dude Esau, and he’s right behind us.”

19Then he told the second and third groups, “This is how you gotta chat with Esau when you see him.”

20And add, “Yo, your servant Jacob’s chilling behind us. I’m trying to vibe with him after I drop off these gifts, hoping he’ll be cool with me.”

21So Jacob sent the gifts ahead and chilled that night with his crew.

22Then he got up at night, took his two wives, two side girls, and his eleven sons, and crossed the Jabbok river.

23He sent them across the stream and kept whatever he had with him.

24Jacob was solo, and a dude showed up to wrestle with him until sunrise.

25When the guy saw he couldn’t win, he touched Jacob's hip, and it got all messed up while they were wrestling.

26The dude was like, “Let me go, dawn’s coming,” and Jacob was like, “Nah, not until you bless me.”

27The dude asked him, “What’s your name?” and Jacob said, “It’s Jacob.”

28He said, “You’re not gonna be called Jacob anymore, but Israel, 'cause you got mad rizz with God and people, and you’ve come out on top.”

29Jacob was like, “Yo, what’s your name?” and the dude said, “Why you trippin’ on my name?” Then he blessed him there.

30Jacob named the place Peniel, saying, “I saw God face to face, and I’m still here, no cap.”

31As he rolled past Penuel, the sun came up, and he was straight vibin' on his thigh.

32So now, the peeps of Israel don’t munch on that sinew that got weak on the thigh, 'cause he touched Jacob's thigh where it got all sus.

1And Jacob went on his way, and the angels of God met him.

2And when Jacob saw them, he said, This is God’s host: and he called the name of that place Mahanaim.

3And Jacob sent messengers before him to Esau his brother unto the land of Seir, the country of Edom.

4And 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:

5And 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.

6And 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.

7Then 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;

8And said, If Esau come to the one company, and smite it, then the other company which is left shall escape.

9And 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:

10I 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.

11Deliver 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.

12And thou saidst, I will surely do thee good, and make thy seed as the sand of the sea, which cannot be numbered for multitude.

13And he lodged there that same night; and took of that which came to his hand a present for Esau his brother;

14Two hundred she goats, and twenty he goats, two hundred ewes, and twenty rams,

15Thirty milch camels with their colts, forty kine, and ten bulls, twenty she asses, and ten foals.

16And 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.

17And 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?

18Then 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.

19And 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.

20And 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.

21So went the present over before him: and himself lodged that night in the company.

22And he rose up that night, and took his two wives, and his two womenservants, and his eleven sons, and passed over the ford Jabbok.

23And he took them, and sent them over the brook, and sent over that he had.

24And Jacob was left alone; and there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of the day.

25And 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.

26And he said, Let me go, for the day breaketh. And he said, I will not let thee go, except thou bless me.

27And he said unto him, What is thy name? And he said, Jacob.

28And 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.

29And 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.

30And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.

31And as he passed over Penuel the sun rose upon him, and he halted upon his thigh.

32Therefore 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.
