27 So the man asked him, |What's your name?| |Jacob,| he answered.

28 The man said, |Your name will no longer be Jacob but Israel [He Struggles With God], because you have struggled with God and with men-and you have won.|

29 Jacob said, |Please tell me your name.| The man answered, |Why do you ask for my name?| Then he blessed Jacob there.
