according_a to_o the_o greek_a pronunciation_n phanovel_n jacob_n tell_v we_o the_o meaning_n because_o i_o have_v see_v god_n face_n to_o face_n that_o be_v not_o in_o a_o dream_n but_o wake_v not_o that_o jacob_n see_v the_o essence_n of_o god_n for_o that_o be_v invisible_a but_o he_o see_v he_o more_o clear_o than_o ever_o he_o do_v before_o jacob_n see_v god_n face_n to_o face_n moses_n

he_o call_v out_o of_o thankfulness_n the_o place_n bethel_n so_o now_o he_o call_v this_o place_n peniel_n that_o his_o posterity_n by_o that_o name_n may_v call_v to_o remembrance_n this_o
