Deuteronomy 33:6-25
New King James Version
6 “Let (A)Reuben live, and not die,
Nor let his men be few.”
7 And this he said of (B)Judah:
“Hear, Lord, the voice of Judah,
And bring him to his people;
(C)Let his hands be sufficient for him,
And may You be (D)a help against his enemies.”
8 And of (E)Levi he said:
(F)“Let Your [a]Thummim and Your Urim be with Your holy one,
(G)Whom You tested at Massah,
And with whom You contended at the waters of Meribah,
9 (H)Who says of his father and mother,
‘I have not (I)seen them’;
(J)Nor did he acknowledge his brothers,
Or know his own children;
For (K)they have observed Your word
And kept Your covenant.
10 (L)They shall teach Jacob Your judgments,
And Israel Your law.
They shall put incense before You,
(M)And a whole burnt sacrifice on Your altar.
11 Bless his substance, Lord,
And (N)accept the work of his hands;
Strike the loins of those who rise against him,
And of those who hate him, that they rise not again.”
12 Of Benjamin he said:
“The beloved of the Lord shall dwell in safety by Him,
Who shelters him all the day long;
And he shall dwell between His shoulders.”
13 And of Joseph he said:
(O)“Blessed of the Lord is his land,
With the precious things of heaven, with the (P)dew,
And the deep lying beneath,
14 With the precious fruits of the sun,
With the precious produce of the months,
15 With the best things of (Q)the ancient mountains,
With the precious things (R)of the everlasting hills,
16 With the precious things of the earth and its fullness,
And the favor of (S)Him who dwelt in the bush.
Let the blessing come (T)‘on the head of Joseph,
And on the crown of the head of him who was separate from his brothers.’
17 His glory is like a (U)firstborn bull,
And his horns like the (V)horns of the wild ox;
Together with them
(W)He shall push the peoples
To the ends of the earth;
(X)They are the ten thousands of Ephraim,
And they are the thousands of Manasseh.”
18 And of Zebulun he said:
(Y)“Rejoice, Zebulun, in your going out,
And Issachar in your tents!
19 They shall (Z)call the peoples to the mountain;
There (AA)they shall offer sacrifices of righteousness;
For they shall partake of the abundance of the seas
And of treasures hidden in the sand.”
20 And of Gad he said:
“Blessed is he who (AB)enlarges Gad;
He dwells as a lion,
And tears the arm and the crown of his head.
21 (AC)He provided the first part for himself,
Because a lawgiver’s portion was reserved there.
(AD)He came with the heads of the people;
He administered the justice of the Lord,
And His judgments with Israel.”
22 And of Dan he said:
“Dan is a lion’s whelp;
(AE)He shall leap from Bashan.”
23 And of Naphtali he said:
“O Naphtali, (AF)satisfied with favor,
And full of the blessing of the Lord,
(AG)Possess the west and the south.”
24 And of Asher he said:
(AH)“Asher is most blessed of sons;
Let him be favored by his brothers,
And let him (AI)dip his foot in oil.
25 Your sandals shall be (AJ)iron and bronze;
As your days, so shall your strength be.

15 with the choicest gifts of the ancient mountains(V)
and the fruitfulness of the everlasting hills;
16 with the best gifts of the earth and its fullness
and the favor of him who dwelt in the burning bush.(W)
Let all these rest on the head of Joseph,
on the brow of the prince among[b] his brothers.(X)
17 In majesty he is like a firstborn bull;
his horns(Y) are the horns of a wild ox.(Z)
With them he will gore(AA) the nations,
even those at the ends of the earth.
Such are the ten thousands of Ephraim;(AB)
such are the thousands of Manasseh.(AC)”

on the treasures hidden in the sand.”

tearing at arm or head.

and his judgments concerning Israel.”

6 Let Reuben live, and not die; and let not his men be few.
7 And this is the blessing of Judah: and he said, Hear, Lord, the voice of Judah, and bring him unto his people: let his hands be sufficient for him; and be thou an help to him from his enemies.
8 And of Levi he said, Let thy Thummim and thy Urim be with thy holy one, whom thou didst prove at Massah, and with whom thou didst strive at the waters of Meribah;
9 Who said unto his father and to his mother, I have not seen him; neither did he acknowledge his brethren, nor knew his own children: for they have observed thy word, and kept thy covenant.
10 They shall teach Jacob thy judgments, and Israel thy law: they shall put incense before thee, and whole burnt sacrifice upon thine altar.
11 Bless, Lord, his substance, and accept the work of his hands; smite through the loins of them that rise against him, and of them that hate him, that they rise not again.
12 And of Benjamin he said, The beloved of the Lord shall dwell in safety by him; and the Lord shall cover him all the day long, and he shall dwell between his shoulders.
13 And of Joseph he said, Blessed of the Lord be his land, for the precious things of heaven, for the dew, and for the deep that coucheth beneath,
14 And for the precious fruits brought forth by the sun, and for the precious things put forth by the moon,
15 And for the chief things of the ancient mountains, and for the precious things of the lasting hills,
16 And for the precious things of the earth and fulness thereof, and for the good will of him that dwelt in the bush: let the blessing come upon the head of Joseph, and upon the top of the head of him that was separated from his brethren.
17 His glory is like the firstling of his bullock, and his horns are like the horns of unicorns: with them he shall push the people together to the ends of the earth: and they are the ten thousands of Ephraim, and they are the thousands of Manasseh.
18 And of Zebulun he said, Rejoice, Zebulun, in thy going out; and, Issachar, in thy tents.
19 They shall call the people unto the mountain; there they shall offer sacrifices of righteousness: for they shall suck of the abundance of the seas, and of treasures hid in the sand.
20 And of Gad he said, Blessed be he that enlargeth Gad: he dwelleth as a lion, and teareth the arm with the crown of the head.
21 And he provided the first part for himself, because there, in a portion of the lawgiver, was he seated; and he came with the heads of the people, he executed the justice of the Lord, and his judgments with Israel.
22 And of Dan he said, Dan is a lion's whelp: he shall leap from Bashan.
23 And of Naphtali he said, O Naphtali, satisfied with favour, and full with the blessing of the Lord: possess thou the west and the south.
