Genesis 33:15-17

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹⁵ Esau said, “Then let me leave some of my men with you.”

“Why do that?” Jacob asked. “I only want to win your favor, sir.”

¹⁶ That day Esau started back to Seir. ¹⁷ But Jacob moved on to Succoth, where he built a house for himself and made shelters for his livestock. That is why the place is named Succoth [Shelters].
