Genesis 32:27-29
International Standard Version
27 Then the man[a] asked him, “What’s your name?”
“Jacob,” he responded
28 “Your name won’t be[b] Jacob anymore,” the man[c] replied, “but Israel, because you exerted yourself against both God and men, and you’ve emerged victorious.”
29 “Please,” Jacob inquired, “Tell me your name.”
But he asked, “Why are you asking about my name?” And he blessed Jacob[d] there.
