29 And Jacob (he grasps the heel) requested, “Please tell me your name.” But he replied, “Why do you ask my name?” Then he blessed Jacob there. 30 So Jacob (he grasps the heel) named the place Peniel (facing God), saying, “Indeed, I have seen God {Elohim} face to face, and yet my life was spared.” 31 The sun rose above him as he passed by Penuel (Peniel), and he was limping because of his hip. 32 Therefore to this day the Israelites (God Prevails) do not eat the tendon attached to the socket of the hip, because the socket of Jacob’s (he grasps the heel) hip was struck near that tendon.
