So he spent the night there. From what he had with him, Jacob sent a gift to his brother Esau: two hundred female goats and twenty male goats, two hundred ewes and twenty rams, thirty female camels and their calves, forty cows and ten bulls, twenty female donkeys and ten male donkeys. He placed them in the care of his servants, each herd by itself. He told them, “Go on ahead of me, and put some space between each herd.” He gave these instructions to the one in the lead, “When my brother Esau meets you, and asks, ‘Who is your master? Where are you going? Who owns these herds you are driving?’ then you are to say, ‘They belong to your servant Jacob. He’s sent them as a gift to you, my lord Esau, and he is coming behind us.’ ”
