Deuteronomy 33:16-18

Amplified Bible

¹⁶
With the precious things of the earth and its fullness,
And the favor and goodwill of Him who dwelt in the bush.
Let these blessings come upon the head of Joseph,
And upon the crown of the head of him who was distinguished [as a prince] among his brothers.^(A)
¹⁷
“His majesty is like a firstborn young bull,
And his horns like the horns of the wild ox;
With them he will gore the peoples,
All of them together, to the ends of the earth.
And those are the ten thousands of Ephraim,
And those are the thousands of Manasseh.”

¹⁸Of Zebulun he said,

“^[a]Rejoice, Zebulun, in your interests abroad,
And, Issachar, in your tents [at home].
