Chapter 32
22
And the tribute passed over before him, and he lodged that night in the camp.
23
And he arose in the night—he and his two wives and his two handmaids and his eleven children—and he crossed the ford of Jabbok.
24
He took them and crossed them over the stream and crossed over what was his.
25
Jacob was left alone, and a man wrestled with him until the rising of the dawn.
26
And he saw that he could not prevail over him, and he touched the socket of his hip, and the socket of Jacob's hip was dislocated as he wrestled with him.
27
And he said, "Send me away, for the dawn has ascended." And he said, "I will not send you away unless you have blessed me."
28
He said to him, "What is your name?" He said, "Jacob."
29
And he said, "Your name shall no longer be called Jacob, but Israel, for you have striven with God and with people and you have prevailed."
30
And Jacob asked and said, "Tell me your name, please." And he said, "Why do you ask about my name?" And he blessed him there.
31
And Jacob called the name of the place Penuel, for I have seen God face to face, and my soul was delivered.
32
The sun rose on him as he passed over Penuel, and he limped on his thigh.
