29 Then Jacob asked him, |Please tell me your name.| But he said, |Why is it that you ask what my name is?| And he blessed him there. 30 So Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: |For I have seen God face to face, and my life has been preserved.| 31 The sun rose on him as he passed by Peniel, and he limped because of his hip. 32 Therefore, to this day the children of Israel do not eat the tendon of the hip socket, because he struck Jacob’s hip socket near that tendon.
