Hosea 12:3-5

New International Reader's Version

³ Even before Jacob was born,
    he was holding on to his brother’s heel.
When he became a man,
    he struggled with God.
⁴ At Peniel he struggled with the angel and won.
    Jacob wept and begged for his blessing.
God also met with him at Bethel.
    He talked with him there.
⁵ He is the Lord God who rules over all.
    His name is the Lord.
