BrLXX Καὶ εἶπεν Ἰακὼβ, ἐὰν ἔλθῃ Ἡσαῦ εἰς παρεμβολὴν μίαν, καὶ κόψῃ αὐτὴν, ἔσται ἡ παρεμβολὴ ἡ δευτέρα εἰς τὸ σώζεσθαι.

32:9-12 Jacob’s prayer is a wonderful example of how to address God. He based his appeal on God’s will, reminding God of his relationship with him, his command for him to return to the land, and his promise (32:9). He had a correct attitude of genuine humility and total dependence on God (32:10). Finally, he asked that God rescue him from his brother, and he repeated God’s promises (see 22:17).

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said if comes ˊĒsāv to/towards the,company the=one(f) and,attacks,it and=it_was the,company the,left to,escape )
Alternate translation: “Then Jacob prayed,”
אֱלֹהֵי֙ אָבִ֣י אַבְרָהָ֔ם וֵאלֹהֵ֖י אָבִ֣י יִצְחָ֑ק יְהוָ֞ה
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said if comes ˊĒsāv to/towards the,company the=one(f) and,attacks,it and=it_was the,company the,left to,escape )
Make sure that your translation of this address refers to only one God, not two or three different Gods. Also make sure it is clear that Jacob is talking directly to Yahweh, not talking about him. Alternate translation: “Dear Yahweh, the God whom my grandfather Abraham and my father Isaac worshiped,”

Consider whether it is more natural in your language to use a direct or indirect quote here. Also see how you translated land and relatives in Gen 31:3. Alternate translation: “you told me to go back to my homeland where my relatives live,”

Make sure your choice of I or you (for God) and you or me (for Jacob) in this clause fits with the way you translated the previous part of this quote. Alternate translation: “and that you would make things go well for me.”
