Genesis 32:30-32

GOD’S WORD Translation

³⁰ So Jacob named that place Peniel [Face of God], because he said, “I have seen God face to face, but my life was saved.” ³¹ The sun rose as he passed Penuel.^[a] He was limping because of his hip. ³² (Therefore, even today the people of Israel do not eat the muscle of the thigh attached to the hip socket because God touched the socket of Jacob’s hip at the muscle of the thigh.)
