[256] ὁ δ’ υἱὸς ἀκούσας — σκοποὶ γὰρ καὶ φραστῆρες τῆς ὁδοῦ πάντ’ ἐδήλουν — οὐ μακρὰν τῶν ὁρίων ἀπέχοντα διὰ ταχέων ἀπήντα τῷ πατρί· καὶ κατὰ
τὴν καλουμένην Ἡρώων πόλιν ἐντυχόντες ἐπιπίπτουσιν ἀλλήλοις τὰς κεφαλὰς ἐπὶ τῶν αὐχένων ἐρείσαντες καὶ τὰς ἐσθῆτας δάκρυσι φύροντες πολυχρονίων ἀσπασμάτων ἀπλήστως ἐνεφοροῦντο καὶ μόλις παυσάμενοι συνέτεινον ἄχρι τῶν βασιλείων.

[256] So Jacob, being filled with good hopes, rose up in the morning with joy, and hastened on his way; and when his son heard that he was near, for scouts and watchers who were placed along the road gave him notice of everything, he went with speed to meet his father when he was at no great distance from the borders of the land; and they met one another near the city, which is called the city of heroes, and they fell into one another’s arms placing their heads on each other’s necks, and soaking their garments with tears, and satisfying themselves abundantly with long enduring embraces, and unwillingly at last loosing one another, they proceeded to the palace.
