Hosea 12:3-5
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
3 In the womb he tried to supplant his brother,
and in his manhood he strove with God.(A)
4 He strove with the angel and prevailed;
he wept and sought his favor;
he met him at Bethel,
and there he spoke with him.[a](B)
5 The Lord the God of hosts,
the Lord is his name!
