And he said, These are to find grace in the sight of my lord. 9And Esau said, I haue enough: my brother, keepe that thou hast vnto thy selfe. 10And Iacob saide, Nay, I pray thee: if now I haue found grace in thy sight, then receiue my present at my hand: for therefore I haue seene thy face, as though I had seene the face of God; and thou wast pleased with me.
