The angel asked Jacob to let him go but Jacob replied, "I will not let you unless you bless me" the Angel asked Jacob what his name was. "Jacob", he replied. Then the angel said, "your name shall be no more Jacob but Israel: for you have striven with God and with men and have prevailed". So, the angel blessed Jacob and Jacob called the name of that place Peniel which means "face of God". When the sun rose, Jacob went on his way but was limping because the angel had dislocated his hips

That night, he wrestled with an angel. As they wrestled all night, the angel touched Jacob`s hips and dislocated it. When it was dawn, the angel realised that Jacob would still not let him go.
