22 The same night he got up and took his two wives, his two maids, and his eleven children, and crossed the ford of the Jabbok.

22 Jacob got up during the night, took his two wives, his two women servants, and his eleven sons, and crossed the Jabbok River's shallow water.

23 He took them and sent them across the stream, and likewise everything that he had.

23 He took them and everything that belonged to him, and he helped them cross the river.

24 Jacob was left alone; and a man wrestled with him until daybreak.

24 But Jacob stayed apart by himself, and a man wrestled with him until dawn broke.

25 When the man saw that he did not prevail against Jacob, he struck him on the hip socket; and Jacob's hip was put out of joint as he wrestled with him.

25 When the man saw that he couldn't defeat Jacob, he grabbed Jacob's thigh and tore a muscle in Jacob's thigh as he wrestled with him.

26 Then he said, "Let me go, for the day is breaking." But Jacob said, "I will not let you go, unless you bless me."

26 The man said, "Let me go because the dawn is breaking." But Jacob said, "I won't let you go until you bless me."

27 So he said to him, "What is your name?" And he said, "Jacob."

27 He said to Jacob, "What's your name?" and he said, "Jacob."

28 Then the man said, "You shall no longer be called Jacob, but Israel, for you have striven with God and with humans, and have prevailed."

28 Then he said, "Your name won't be Jacob any longer, but Israel, because you struggled with God and with men and won."

29 Then Jacob asked him, "Please tell me your name." But he said, "Why is it that you ask my name?" And there he blessed him.

29 Jacob also asked and said, "Tell me your name." But he said, "Why do you ask for my name?" and he blessed Jacob there.

30 So Jacob called the place Peniel, saying, "For I have seen God face to face, and yet my life is preserved."

30 Jacob named the place Peniel,"because I've seen God face-to-face, and my life has been saved."

31 The sun rose upon him as he passed Penuel, limping because of his hip.

31 The sun rose as Jacob passed Penuel, limping because of his thigh.
