Genesis 49:22-24
Common English Bible
22 Joseph is a young bull,[a]
a young bull by a spring,
who strides with oxen.[b]
23 They attacked him fiercely and fired arrows;
the archers attacked him furiously.
24 But his bow stayed strong,
and his forearms were nimble,[c]
by the hands of the strong one of Jacob,
by the name of the shepherd, the rock of Israel,
