Ask H7592 your young H5288 men, and they will show H5046 you. Why let the young H5288 men find H4672 favor H2580 in your eyes: H5869 for we come H935 in a good H2896 day: H3117 give, H5414 I pray H4994 you, whatever H853 H834 comes H4672 to your hand H3027 to your servants, H5650 and to your son H1121 David. H1732

And say H559 you moreover, H1571 Behold, H2009 your servant H5650 Jacob H3290 is behind H310 us. For he said, H559 I will appease H3722 H6440 him with the present H4503 that goes H1980 before H6440 me, and afterward H310 H3651 I will see H7200 his face; H6440 peradventure H194 he will accept H5375 of me.

So went H5674 the present H4503 over H5674 before H5921 H6440 him: and himself H1931 lodged H3885 that night H3915 in the company. H4264

And he lift H5375 up his eyes H5869 and looked, H7200 and, see, H2009 three H7969 men H582 stood H5324 by him: and when he saw H7200 them, he ran H7323 to meet H7125 them from the tent H168 door, H6607 and bowed H7812 himself toward the ground, H776

And Jacob H3290 said, H559 No, H408 I pray H4994 you, if H518 now H4994 I have found H4672 grace H2580 in your sight, H5869 then receive H3947 my present H4503 at my hand: H3027 for therefore H5921 H3651 I have seen H7200 your face, H6440 as though I had seen H7200 the face H6440 of God, H430 and you were pleased H7521 with me.

And Joseph H3130 was the governor H7989 over H5921 the land, H776 and he it was that sold H7666 to all H3605 the people H5971 of the land: H776 and Joseph's H3130 brothers H251 came, H935 and bowed H7812 down H7812 themselves before him with their faces H639 to the earth. H776

And their father H1 Israel H3478 said H559 to them, If H518 it must be so H3651 now, H645 do H6213 this; H2063 take H3947 of the best H2173 fruits H2173 in the land H776 in your vessels, H3627 and carry H3381 down H3381 the man H376 a present, H4503 a little H4592 balm, H6875 and a little H4592 honey, H1706 spices, H5219 and myrrh, H3910 nuts, H992 and almonds: H8247

And when Joseph H3130 came H935 home, H1004 they brought H935 him the present H4503 which H834 was in their hand H3027 into the house, H1004 and bowed H7812 themselves to him to the earth. H776

And now H6258 this H2063 blessing H1293 which H834 your handmaid H8198 has brought H935 to my lord, H113 let it even be given H5414 to the young H5288 men that follow H1980 H7272 my lord. H113

A gift H7810 is as a precious H2580 stone H68 in the eyes H5869 of him that has H1167 it: wherever H413 it turns, H6437 it prospers. H7919

A man's H120 gift H4976 makes room H7337 for him, and brings H5148 him before H6440 great H1419 men.

Many H7227 will entreat H2470 the favor H6440 of the prince: H5081 and every H3605 man is a friend H7453 to him that gives gifts. H4976

A gift H4976 in secret H5643 pacifies H3711 anger: H639 and a reward H7810 in the bosom H2436 strong H5794 wrath. H2534
