Genesis 32: 23-32
32:23 And having delivered over all the things that belonged to him,
32:24 he remained alone. Na ka titiro, a man wrestled with him until morning.
32:25 And when he saw that he would not be able to overcome him, he touched the nerve of his thigh, and immediately it withered.
32:26 Na ka mea tera ki a ia, “Release me, for now the dawn ascends.” He responded, “I will not release you, unless you bless me.”
32:27 Therefore he said, “What is your name?” Ka whakahoki ia, “Jacob.”
32:28 Engari ka mea ia, “Your name will not be called Jacob, but Israel; for if you have been strong against God, how much more will you prevail against men?”
32:29 Jacob questioned him, “Tell me, by what name are you called?” He responded, “Why do you ask my name?” And he blessed him in the same place.
32:30 And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel, e korero ana, “I have seen God face to face, and my soul has been saved.”
32:31 And immediately the sun rose upon him, after he had crossed beyond Peniel. Yet in truth, he limped on his foot.
32:32 Mo tenei take, nga tama a Iharaira, tae noa ki tenei ra, do not eat the nerve that withered in Jacob’s thigh, because he touched the nerve of his thigh and it was obstructed. – See more at: https://2fish.co/bible/old-testament/genesis/#sthash.u7c3qwdA.dpuf
