Genese 32: 23-32

32:23 And having delivered over all the things that belonged to him,

32:24 he remained alone. Mme bonang, 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 Mme a re ho yena, “Ntokolle, for now the dawn ascends.” He responded, “I will not release you, unless you bless me.”

32:27 Therefore he said, "Lebitso la hau ke mang?” A araba, “Jacob.”

32:28 Empa a re, “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, "Mpolelle, by what name are you called?” O ile a araba, “Ke hobane’ng ha u botsa lebitso la ka?” And he blessed him in the same place.

32:30 And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel, ho bua, “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. Leha ho le joalo ka 'nete, he limped on his foot.

32:32 Ka lebaka lena, bana ba Iseraele, ho fihlela kajeno, 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
