Hosea 12:3-6
Authorized (King James) Version
3 He took his brother by the heel in the womb,
and by his strength he had power with God:
4 yea, he had power over the angel, and prevailed:
he wept, and made supplication unto him:
he found him in Beth-el, and there he spake with us;
5 even the Lord God of hosts; the Lord is his memorial.
6 Therefore turn thou to thy God:
keep mercy and judgment,
and wait on thy God continually.
Hosea 12:3-6
New King James Version
3 He took his brother (A)by the heel in the womb,
And in his strength he (B)struggled with God.
4 Yes, he struggled with the Angel and prevailed;
He wept, and sought favor from Him.
He found Him in (C)Bethel,
And there He spoke to us—
5 That is, the Lord God of hosts.
The Lord is His (D)memorable name.
6 (E)So you, by the help of your God, return;
Observe mercy and justice,
And wait on your God continually.
