32:22 他夜间起来，带着两个妻子，两个使女，并十一个儿子，过雅博渡口。
And he rose up that night and took his two wives and his two female servants and his eleven children and crossed over the ford of the Jabbok.
32:23 他带着他们，打发他们过河，又打发所有的都过去。
And he took them and sent them over the stream and sent over what he had.
32:24 只剩下雅各一人，有一个人和他摔跤，直到黎明。
And Jacob was left alone, and a man wrestled with him until the break of dawn.
32:25 那人见自己胜不过他，就将他的大腿窝摸了一把；雅各正与那人摔跤的时候，他的大腿窝就脱了节。
And when the man saw that He did not prevail against him, He touched the socket of his hip; and the socket of Jacob's hip was dislocated as he wrestled with Him.
32:26 那人说，天快亮了，让我去罢。雅各却说，你若不给我祝福，我就不让你去。
And the man said, Let Me go, for the dawn is breaking. But Jacob said, I will not let You go unless You bless me.
32:27 那人对他说，你名叫什么？他说，我名叫雅各。
And He said to him, What is your name? And he said, Jacob.
32:28 那人说，你的名不要再叫雅各，要叫以色列；因为你与神与人较力，都得了胜。
And He said, Your name will no longer be called Jacob, but Israel; for you have struggled with God and with men and have prevailed.
32:29 雅各问祂说，请将你的名告诉我。但那人说，你何必问我的名？于是祂在那里给雅各祝福。
And Jacob asked Him and said, Please tell me Your name. But He said, Why is it that you ask My name? And He blessed him there.
32:30 雅各便给那地方起名叫毗努伊勒，因为他说，我面对面看见了神，我的性命仍得保全。
And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel, for, he said, I have seen God face to face, and yet my life has been preserved.
32:31 日头升起，照在雅各身上，那时他渡过毗努伊勒，他的大腿就瘸了。
And the sun rose upon him as he crossed over Penuel, and he limped because of his hip.
32:32 故此，以色列人不吃大腿窝的筋，直到今日，因为那人摸了雅各大腿窝的筋。
Therefore the children of Israel do not eat the thigh muscle, which is upon the socket of the hip, to this day, because He touched the socket of Jacob's hip at the thigh muscle.
