33:1-17 Jacob’s long-anticipated meeting with his brother Esau turned out far better than he had feared. Esau’s changed heart is an example of how “God fights” (See 32:28). Earlier, he had cared little about the birthright (25:32-34); now he cared little for old grudges. Jacob recognized that God had intervened.
Note 1 topic: writing-pronouns
וַיֹּ֣אמֶר אֵלָ֗יו

Alternate translation: “But he replied to him,”
אֲדֹנִ֤י יֹדֵ֨עַ֙ כִּֽי
my=master/master knowing that/for/because/then/when
See how you translated “my lord” in verse 8. Alternate translation: “Sir, you know that”

Alternate translation: “my children are weak,”
וְהַצֹּ֥אן וְהַבָּקָ֖ר עָל֣וֹת עָלָ֑י
and,the,flocks and,the,herds nursing to,me
See how you translated “flocks and herds” in Gen 12:16. Alternate translation: “and some of my sheep and cattle are nursing their young.”
וּדְפָקוּם֙ י֣וֹם אֶחָ֔ד
and,driven_hard,they day one(ms)
Alternate translation: “If my men drive the livestock too hard in one day,” or “If I force the livestock to go too fast for even one day,”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / hyperbole
וָמֵ֖תוּ כָּל הַצֹּֽאן
and,die all/each/any/every the,flocks
This phrase especially refers to the sheep and cattle that were nursing, but Jacob is probably using hyperbole here (all) to emphasize that he does not want to travel too fast. Alternate translation: “then all the flocks and herds will die.” or “then all of them will die.”
