Deuteronomy 33:21-23
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
21 He saw that the best should be his,
for there the commander’s portion was assigned;
he came at the head of the people.
He carried out the justice of the Lord
and his ordinances for Israel.(A)
22 Of Dan he said:
Dan is a lion’s cub,(B)
that springs away from a viper!
23 Of Naphtali he said:
Naphtali, abounding with favor,
filled with the blessing of the Lord,
take possession of the west and south.(C)
