25 E quando viu que não podia com ele, tocou no lugar da juntura de sua coxa, e desconjuntou-se a coxa de Jacó enquanto com ele lutava.

26 E disse: Deixa-me, que raia a alva. E ele disse: Não te deixarei, se não me abençoares.

27 E ele lhe disse: Qual é teu nome? E ele respondeu: Jacó.

28 E ele disse: Não se dirá mais teu nome Jacó, mas sim Israel: porque lutaste com Deus e com os homens, e venceste.

29 Então Jacó lhe perguntou, e disse: Declara-me agora teu nome. E ele respondeu: Por que perguntas por meu nome? E abençoou-o ali.
