Genesis 32:25-31
25When the man saw that he could not defeat him, he struck Jacob’s hip socket as they wrestled and dislocated his hip.
26Then he said to Jacob, “Let me go, for it is daybreak.” But Jacob said, “I will not let you go unless you bless me.”
27“What is your name?” the man asked. “Jacob,” he replied.
28“Your name will no longer be Jacob,” he said. “It will be Israel because you have struggled with God and with men and have prevailed.”
29Then Jacob asked him, “Please tell me your name.” But he answered, “Why do you ask my name?” And he blessed him there.
30Jacob then named the place Peniel, “For I have seen God face to face,” he said, “yet my life has been spared.”
31The sun shone on him as he passed by Penuel — limping because of his hip.
