Genesis 49:22-26

22Joseph is a fruitful vine— a fruitful vine by a spring, whose branches scale the wall.123The archers attacked him with bitterness; they aimed at him in hostility.24Yet he steadied his bow, and his strong arms were tempered by the hands of the Mighty One of Jacob, in the name of the Shepherd, the Rock of Israel,25by the God of your father who helps you, and by the Almighty2 who blesses you, with blessings of the heavens above, with blessings of the depths below, with blessings of the breasts and womb.26The blessings of your father have surpassed the blessings of the ancient mountains3 and the bounty of the everlasting hills. May they rest on the head of Joseph, on the brow of the prince of his brothers.
