Footnotes

  1. 32:28 In Hb, the name Israel sounds like “he struggled (with) God.”

I will give you the treasures of darkness
and riches from secret places,(A)
so that you may know that I am the Lord.
I am the God of Israel, who calls you by your name.(B)
I call you by your name,
for the sake of my servant Jacob(C)
and Israel my chosen one.
I give a name to you,
though you do not know me.
