EasyEnglish Bible
23 After Jacob had sent his family across, he also sent all his things across the stream. 24 Then Jacob was alone. A man came and fought with him for a long time.[a] They continued until dawn.
25 The man saw that he was not winning the fight against Jacob. So he hit Jacob's hip while they were fighting.[b] In that way, Jacob's hip moved out of its proper place.
