(Everett Fox translation)
He arose during that night,
took his two wives, his two maids, and his eleven children
to cross the Yabbok crossing.
He took them and brought them across the river; he brought
across what belonged to him.
And Yaakov was left alone-
Now a man wrestled with him until the coming up of dawn.
When he saw that he could not prevail against him,
he touched the socket of his thigh;
the socket of Yaakov’s thigh had been dislocated as he wrestled
with him.
Then he said:
Let me go,
for dawn has come up!
But he said:
I will not let you go
unless you bless me.
He said to him:
What is your name?
And he said: Yaakov.
Then he said:
Not as Yaakov/Heel-Sneak shall your name be henceforth
uttered,
but rather as Yisrael/God-Fighter,
for you have fought with God and men
and have prevailed.
Then Yaakov asked and said:
Pray tell me your name!
But he said:
Now why do you ask after my name?
And he gave him farewell-blessing there.
Yaakov called the name of the place: Peniel/Face of God,
for: I have seen God,
face to face,
and my life has been saved.
The sun rose on him as he crossed by Penuel,
and he was limping on his thigh.
