2I will makeH6213 you into a greatH1419 nationH1471,and I will bless youH1288;I will make your nameH8034 greatH1431,so that you will beH1961 a blessingH1293.3I will blessH1288 those who bless youH1288and curseH779 those who curse youH7043;and allH3605 the familiesH4940 of the earthH127will be blessedH1288 through you.2”
