Good News Translation

²⁷ “What is your name?” the man asked.

“Jacob,” he answered.

^28 (A)The man said, “Your name will no longer be Jacob. You have struggled with God and with men, and you have won; so your name will be Israel.”^[a]

^29 (B)Jacob said, “Now tell me your name.”

But he answered, “Why do you want to know my name?” Then he blessed Jacob.
