Genesis 32:27-29

Expanded Bible

²⁷ The man said to him, “What is your name?”

And he answered, “Jacob.”

²⁸ Then the man said, “Your name will no longer be Jacob. Your name will now be Israel [^Csounds like “he wrestled/fought/strove with God” in Hebrew], because you have ·wrestled [fought; strove] with God and with people, and you have ·won [prevailed].”

²⁹ Then Jacob asked him, “Please tell me your name.”

But ·the man [^Lhe] said, “Why do you ask my name?” Then he blessed Jacob there.
