28 No longer will your name be Jacob,| the man told him, |but Israel, because you have fought with God and with men and have prevailed.| 29 Then Jacob asked, |Please tell me your name.| |Why do you ask my name?| the man replied. Then he blessed Jacob there. 30 So Jacob named the place Peniel, explaining, |Certainly I have seen God face to face and have survived.| Genesis 32:28-30, New English Translation.
