Genesis 32:28-30
28Then 1he saidH559, “Your nameH8034 shall noH3808 longerH5750 be JacobH3290, but 2IsraelH3478; for you have contendedH8280 with GodH430 and with menH376, and have prevailedH3201.”
29And 3JacobH3290 askedH7592 him and saidH559, “PleaseH4994 tellH5046 me your nameH8034.” But he saidH559, “WhyH4100 is it that you askH7592 my nameH8034?” And he blessedH1288 him thereH8033.
30So JacobH3290 namedH7121H8034 the placeH4725 4PenielH6439, for he said, “5I have seenH7200 GodH430 faceH6440 to faceH6440, yet my 6lifeH5315 has been 7sparedH5337.”
