Genesis 32:8

And Jacob was greatly terrified, and was perplexed; and he divided the people that was with him, and the cows, and the camels, and the sheep, into two camps.

And Jacob said, If Esau should come to one camp, and strike it, the other camp shall be in safety.

He said, “If Esau comes to the one company, and strikes it, then the company which is left will escape.”
