Note 1 topic: grammar-honorifics
וַיִּשְׁאַ֣ל יַעֲקֹ֗ב וַיֹּ֨אמֶר֙
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said not Yaakob called again/more name,your that/for/because/then/when if Yisrael that/for/because/then/when struggled with ʼₑlhīmv and,with men and,prevailed )
Consider again whether or not you have capitalized references to the man in verses 24-29. See the note about this at verse 24. Alternate translation: “Then Jacob asked him”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / quotations
הַגִּֽידָה נָּ֣א שְׁמֶ֔ךָ
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said not Yaakob called again/more name,your that/for/because/then/when if Yisrael that/for/because/then/when struggled with ʼₑlhīmv and,with men and,prevailed )
Consider whether it is better to use a direct or indirect quote here in your language. Alternate translation: “What is your name?” or “what his name was.”
Note 3 topic: writing-quotations
וַיֹּ֕אמֶר
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said not Yaakob called again/more name,your that/for/because/then/when if Yisrael that/for/because/then/when struggled with ʼₑlhīmv and,with men and,prevailed )
Alternate translation: “But the man replied,”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion
לָ֥מָּה זֶּ֖ה תִּשְׁאַ֣ל
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said not Yaakob called again/more name,your that/for/because/then/when if Yisrael that/for/because/then/when struggled with ʼₑlhīmv and,with men and,prevailed )
This rhetorical question probably means that there was no need for Jacob to ask the man what his name was; he should have known without asking. Consider whether or not it is best to use a rhetorical question here in your language. Alternate translation: “You do not need to ask me”

Alternate translation: “to tell you my name!”
32:29 Jacob knew who was with him (32:30); the request was his attempt to regain some control. God would not reveal his name, which cannot be had on demand.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Greek words that they’re translated from.
