Jacob see Esau coming with his men, so he puts the mistresses and their children in front, then Leah and her children and Rachel and Joseph in the last group, in that order. Jacob then goes to the front to meet Esau and bows to Esau seven times.
Esau approaches and embraces Jacob by the neck and they both weep. All the women and children bow to Esau. Jacob offers his gift but Esau won't take it. Jacob insists and Esau finally accepts the gift.
Jacob travels south and builds a house.
