32:22 During the night Jacob quickly took 3 his two wives, his two female servants, and his eleven sons 4 and crossed the ford of the Jabbok. 5 32:23 He took them and sent them across the stream along with all his possessions. 6 32:24 So Jacob was left alone. Then a man 7 wrestled 8 with him until daybreak. 9 32:25 When the man 10 saw that he could not defeat Jacob, 11 he struck 12 the socket of his hip so the socket of Jacob’s hip was dislocated while he wrestled with him.
32:26 Then the man 13 said, “Let me go, for the dawn is breaking.” 14 “I will not let you go,” Jacob replied, 15 “unless you bless me.” 16 32:27 The man asked him, 17 “What is your name?” 18 He answered, “Jacob.” 32:28 “No longer will your name be Jacob,” the man told him, 19 “but Israel, 20 because you have fought 21 with God and with men and have prevailed.”
32:29 Then Jacob asked, “Please tell me your name.” 22 “Why 23 do you ask my name?” the man replied. 24 Then he blessed 25 Jacob 26 there. 32:30 So Jacob named the place Peniel, 27 explaining, 28 “Certainly 29 I have seen God face to face 30 and have survived.” 31
32:31 The sun rose 32 over him as he crossed over Penuel, 33 but 34 he was limping because of his hip. 32:32 That is why to this day 35 the Israelites do not eat the sinew which is attached to the socket of the hip, because he struck 36 the socket of Jacob’s hip near the attached sinew.
