How Dem Pass Di Promise Give Anoda Person

Jacob split everything into two. Two groups. If Esau hit one, the other one fit run. Then e send gifts go front — goats, sheep, camels — plenty animals dey waka go meet Esau. Maybe the gifts go cool im brother anger. Maybe e no go work.

Night come. Jacob drop for im knees for the sand. E pray loud. Im voice dey shake. "I dey fear my brother. Abeg save me. Save my children." E hold on to every promise wey Yahweh ever make for am. E stay there for the dark, dey wait.

Jacob send im wives and children cross the river. Cold water splash their feet. Dem reach the other side and wait. Jacob stay behind. Alone. E stand near the dark water, dey listen as e move over the stones. The sky black above am. No other person dey near am.
