Genesis 33:12-14

New International Reader's Version

¹² Then Esau said, “Let’s be on our way. I’ll go with you.”

¹³ But Jacob said to him, “You know that the children are young. You also know that I have to take care of the cows and female sheep that are feeding their little ones. If the animals are driven hard for just one day, all of them will die. ¹⁴ So you go on ahead of me. I’ll move along only as fast as the flocks and herds and the children can go. I’ll go slowly until I come to you in Seir.”
