Genesis 49:22-24
Holman Christian Standard Bible
22 Joseph is a fruitful vine,
a fruitful vine beside a spring;
its branches[a] climb over the wall.[b]
23 The archers attacked him,
shot at him, and were hostile toward him.
24 Yet his bow remained steady,
and his strong[c] arms were made agile
by the hands of the Mighty One of Jacob,(A)
by the name of[d] the Shepherd,(B) the Rock of Israel,(C)
