In the womb he grasped his brother’s heel; as a man he struggled with God.

Even before Jacob was born, he was holding on to his brother’s heel. When he became a man, he struggled with God.

In the womb he took his brother by the heel, and in his manhood he strove with God.

Even in the womb, Jacob struggled with his brother; when he became a man, he even fought with God.

In the womb he took his brother by the heel, And in his mature strength he contended with God.

He took his brother by the heel in the womb, And in his strength he struggled with God.

In the womb he took his brother by the heel; and in his manhood he had power with God:

In the womb he grasped his brother’s heel, and as an adult he wrestled with God.

隨後出生的弟弟緊緊抓著以掃的腳跟，因此給他取名叫雅各。那時以撒六十歲。

自己獨自留下。這時，有一個人來和他摔跤，直到黎明。那人見勝不過雅各，就在他的大腿窩摸了一下，他大腿的關節就脫了臼。那人說：「天亮了，讓我走吧！」但雅各說：「你不祝福我，我就不讓你走。」那人問道：「你叫什麼名字？」他說：「我叫雅各。」那人說：「你以後不要再叫雅各了，你要叫以色列，因為你跟上帝和人角力都得勝了。」

在這對孩子還未出生，還沒有顯出誰善誰惡之前，上帝為了顯明自己揀選人並不是按人的行為，而是按祂自己的旨意，

所以你們要彼此認罪，互相代禱，好得到醫治。義人的禱告有極大的力量和功效。以利亞先知和我們一樣同是血肉之軀，他懇切地祈求不要下雨，結果三年半沒有下雨。後來他再禱告求雨，天就降雨，地也長出了莊稼。
