Genesis 32:6 ASV

⁴  And he commanded them, saying, Thus shall ye say unto my lord Esau: Thus saith thy servant Jacob, I have sojourned with Laban, and stayed until now:

⁵  and I have oxen, and asses, 'and' flocks, and men-servants, and maid-servants: and I have sent to tell my lord, that I may find favor in thy sight.

⁶  And the messengers returned to Jacob, saying, We came to thy brother Esau, and moreover he cometh to meet thee, and four hundred men with him.

⁷  Then Jacob was greatly afraid and was distressed: and he divided the people that were with him, and the flocks, and the herds, and the camels, into two companies;

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