32 1 God comforteth Jacob by his Angels. 9, 10 He prayeth unto God confessing his unworthiness. 13 He sendeth presents unto Esau. 24, 28 He wrestled with the Angel who nameth him Israel.
1 Now Jacob went forth on his journey, and (A)the Angels of God met him.
2 And when Jacob saw them, he said, [a]This is God’s host: and he called the name of the same place [b]Mahanaim.
