29 Then Iaakob demaded, saying, Tell me, I pray thee, thy name; he said, Wherefore now doest thou aske my name? & he blessed him there 30 And Iaakob called the name of the place, Peniel: for, saide he, I haue seene God face to face, and my life is preserued. 31 And the sunne rose vp to him as he passed Peniel, and he halted vpon his thigh. 32 Therefore the children of Israel eate not of the sinewe that shranke in the hollowe of the thigh, vnto this day: because he touched the sinew that shranke in the holow of Iaakobs thigh.
