28 Moto yango alobaki lisusu: — Kobanda lelo, kombo na yo ekozala lisusu Jakobi te, kasi Isalaele, pamba te obundi na Nzambe mpe na bato, bongo olongi.
And he sayde: thou shalt be called Iacob nomore but Israell. For thou hast wrastled with God and with men ad hast preuayled.
29 Jakobi alobaki: — Nabondeli yo, yebisa ngai kombo na yo. Azongiselaki ye: — Mpo na nini ozali kotuna kombo na ngai? Boye apambolaki ye na esika wana.
And Iacob asked him sainge tell me thi name. And he sayde wherfore dost thou aske after my name? and he blessed him there.
30 Jakobi abengaki esika yango « Penieli, » pamba te alobaki: « Namoni Nzambe na miso na ngai, mpe bomoi na ngai ebiki. »
