Indeed, with only my staff I came across the Jordan (flowing down), but now I have become two camps. 11 Please deliver me from the hand of my brother Esau (hairy), for I am afraid that he may come and attack me and the mothers and children with me. 12 But You have said, ‘I will surely make you prosper, and I will make your offspring like the sand of the sea, too numerous to count.’” Genesis 32:9-12, Berean Annotated Bible.
