Footnotes

  1. Genesis 32:28 In Hb, the name Israel sounds like “he struggled (with) God.”

I will give you the treasures of darkness
and riches from secret places,(A)
so that you may know that I, Yahweh,
the God of Israel call you by your name.(B)
I call you by your name,
because of Jacob My servant(C)
and Israel My chosen one.
I give a name to you,
though you do not know Me.
