"And Jacob was left alone; and there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of the day. And when [the man] saw that he prevailed not against [Jacob], he touched the hollow of [Jacob's] thigh;...And he said, Let me go, for the day breaketh. And [Jacob] said, I will not let thee go, except thou bless me...And [the man] said, Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel: for as a prince
has thou the power with God and with men, and hast prevailed...And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for
I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved." (KJV Genesis 32:24-30)
