Genesis33:10

10 And Jacob said, Nay, I pray thee: If now I have found grace in thy sight, then receive my present at my hand: for therefore I have seen thy face, as though I had seen the face of God : and thou wast pleased with me.

Or, For I therefore tender it unto thee, and humbly beg thy acceptance of it, because: for the Hebrew Al-cen is used Numb. 14. 43. and elsewhere.

It is in a manner as pleasant a sight to me as the sight of God himself, because in thy reconciled face I see the face and favour of God thus manifested unto me.
