In the womb Jacob grasped his brother by the heel,
    and when he was a grown man, he struggled with God.
He wrestled with the Angel and prevailed.
    He wept and sought his favor.
    He found him at Bethel, and there he spoke with him,[a]

    The Lord is the name by which he is to be remembered!
So return to your God.
    Observe mercy and justice,
    and wait for your God continually.
