1 Jacob poursuivit son chemin; et des anges de Dieu le rencontrèrent.
2 En les voyant, Jacob dit: C’est le camp de Dieu! Et il donna à ce lieu le nom de Mahanaïm.
3 Jacob envoya devant lui des messagers à Ésaü, son frère, au pays de Séir, dans le territoire d’Édom.
4 Il leur donna cet ordre: Voici ce que vous direz à mon seigneur Ésaü: Ainsi parle ton serviteur Jacob: J’ai séjourné chez Laban, et j’y suis resté jusqu’à présent;
5 j’ai des bœufs, des ânes, des brebis, des serviteurs et des servantes, et j’envoie l’annoncer à mon seigneur, pour trouver grâce à tes yeux.
