Genesis 32:22-32 — Jacob Wrestles with God
Gen.32.22-32
22So the gift passed over before him, and he lodged during that night in the camp. 23He got up during that same night and took his two wives, his two female servants, and his eleven sons, and crossed over the ford of the Jabbok. 24He took them and made them cross over the stream, and made all that he had cross over. 25Jacob was left alone, and a man wrestled with him until dawn. 26When he saw that he could not prevail against him, he touched the socket of his thigh; and the socket of Jacob's thigh was dislocated as he wrestled with him. 27Then he said, “Let me go, for the dawn has risen.” But Jacob said, “I will not let you go unless you bless me.” 28So he said to him, “What is your name?” And he said, “Jacob.” 29Then he said, “Your name will no longer be called Jacob, but Israel , for you have struggled with God and with men, and you have prevailed.” 30Then Jacob asked him and said, “Please tell me your name.” But he said, “Why is it that you ask my name?” And he blessed him there. 31So Jacob called the name of the place Peniel , saying, “For I have seen God face to face, and yet my life has been delivered.” 32The sun rose upon him as he crossed over Penuel, and he was limping on his thigh.
