“Thirty milch camels with their colts, forty kine, and ten bulls, twenty she asses, and ten foals.”
King James Version (KJV)
32:13 Jacob having piously made God his friend by a prayer, is here prudently endeavouring to make Esau his friend by a present. He had prayed to God to deliver him from the hand of Esau - His prayer did not make him presume upon God's mercy, without the use of means.
32:17 He sent him also a very humble message, which he ordered his servants to deliver in the best manner. They must call Esau their lord, and Jacob his servant: they must tell him the cattle they had was a small present which Jacob had sent him. They must especially take care to tell him that Jacob was coming after, that he might not suspect him fled. A friendly confidence in mens goodness may help to prevent the mischief designed us by their badness.
Thirtie milch camels with their colts, fortie kine, and ten bulles, twenty shee ashes, and ten foales.
