28. But he said: Thy name shall not be called Jacob, but Israel: for if thou hast been strong against God, how much more shalt thou prevail against men?
29. Jacob asked him, Tell me by what name art thou called? He answered: Why dost thou ask my name? And he blessed him in the same place.
30. And Jacob called the name of the place Phanuel, saying: I have seen God face to face, and my soul has been saved.
31. And immediately the sun rose upon him, after he was past Phanuel; but he halted on his foot.
32. Therefore the children of Israel, unto this day, eat not the sinew, that shrank in Jacob's thigh: because he touched the sinew of his thigh and it shrank.
