Deuteronomy 33
Darby Bible
1And this is the blessingH1293, wherewith MosesH4872 the manH376 of 1GodH430 blessedH1288 the children of IsraelH3478 before his deathH4194. 2And he saidH559, Jehovah cameH935 from SinaiH5514, And roseH2224 up from SeirH8165 unto them; He shoneH3313 forthH3313 from mount ParanH6290, And he cameH935 from the myriads of the sanctuaryH6944; From his rightH3225 handH3225 [wentH935 forthH3313] a law of fire for them. 3Yea, he loveth the peoplesH5971, All his saints are in thy handH3027, And they sit down at thy feetH7272; Each receiveth of thy words. 4MosesH4872 commandedH6680 us a lawH8451, The inheritance of the congregation of JacobH3290. 5And he wasH1961 kingH4428 in JeshurunH3484, When the headsH7218 of the peopleH5971 And the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478 wereH1961 gatheredH622 togetherH3162. 6Let ReubenH7205 liveH2421, and not dieH4191; And let his men beH1961 few. 7And this of JudahH3063; and he saidH559, HearH8085, Jehovah, the voiceH6963 of JudahH3063, And bringH935 him unto his peopleH5971; May his handsH3027 strive for them; And beH1961 thou a helpH5828 to him against his oppressors. 8And of LeviH3878 he saidH559, Thy ThummimH8550 and thy UrimH224 are for thy 2godly oneH376, Whom thou didst prove at MassahH4532, With whom thou didst strive at the watersH4325 of MeribahH4809; 9Who saidH559 to his fatherH1 and to his motherH517, I seeH7200 him not, And he acknowledged not his brethren, And knewH3045 not his own children; For they have observed thy word, And keptH8104 thy covenantH1285. 10They shall teachH3384 JacobH3290 thine ordinancesH4941, And IsraelH3478 thy lawH8451: They shall putH7760 incense before thy nostrilsH639, And wholeH3632 burnt-offering upon thine altarH4196. 11BlessH1288, Jehovah, his substance! And let the workH6467 of his handsH3027 please thee; Crush the loinsH4975 of his adversaries, And of them that hateH8130 him, that they may never riseH6965 again! 12Of BenjaminH1144 he saidH559, The belovedH3039 of Jehovah, — he shall dwellH7931 in safety by him; He will cover him all the dayH3117 long, And dwellH7931 between his shouldersH3802. 13And of JosephH3130 he saidH559, BlessedH1288 of Jehovah be his landH776! By the precious things of the heavensH8064, By the dewH2919, and by the deepH8415 that lieth beneath, 14And by the precious fruits of the sunH8121, And by the precious things put forth by the monthsH3391, 15And by the best things of the ancient mountainsH2042, And by the precious things of the everlasting hillsH1389, 16And by the precious things of the earthH776 and the fulness thereof. And let the good will of him that dweltH7931 in the bushH5572 ComeH935 upon the headH7218 of JosephH3130, Upon the topH7218 of the headH7218 of him that was separated from his brethren. 17His majestyH1926 is as the firstling of his oxH7794; And his hornsH7161 are as the hornsH7161 of a buffalo. With them shall he push the peoplesH5971 TogetherH3162 to the endsH657 of the earthH776. These are the myriads of EphraimH669, And these are the thousandsH505 of ManassehH4519. 18And of ZebulunH2074 he saidH559, RejoiceH8055, ZebulunH2074, in thy goingH3318 out; And thou, IssacharH3485, in thy tentsH168! 19They shall invite [the] peoplesH5971 to the mountainH2022; There they shall offerH2076 sacrificesH2077 of righteousnessH6664; For they will suckH3243 the abundance of the seasH3220, And the hiddenH2934 treasures of the sandH2344. 20And of GadH1410 he saidH559, BlessedH1288 be he that enlargeth GadH1410! As a lion doth he dwellH7931, and teareth the armH2220, evenH637 the top of the head. 21And he provided the firstH7225 part for himself, For there was reserved the portionH2513 of the lawgiver; And he cameH857 with the headsH7218 of the peopleH5971; The justiceH4941 of Jehovah and his judgmentsH4941 Hath he executed with IsraelH3478. 22And of DanH1835 he saidH559, DanH1835 is a young lionH738; He shall spring forth from BashanH1316. 23And of NaphtaliH5321 he saidH559, NaphtaliH5321, satisfied with favour, And fullH4392 of the blessingH1293 of Jehovah, PossessH3423 thou the westH3220 and the southH1864. 24And of AsherH836 he saidH559, AsherH836 shall beH1961 blessedH1288 with sonsH1121; Let him beH1961 acceptableH7521 to his brethren, And let him dipH2881 his footH7272 in oilH8081. 25IronH1270 and brass shall be thy bolts; And thy rest as thy daysH3117. 26There is none like unto the 3GodH410 of JeshurunH3484, Who rideth upon the heavensH8064 to thy helpH5828, And in his majestyH1346, upon the cloudsH7834. 27[Thy] refuge is the 4GodH430 of old, And underneath are the eternal armsH2220; And he shall driveH1644 out the enemyH341 from before thee, And shall sayH559, DestroyH8045 [them]! 28And IsraelH3478 shall dwellH7931 in safety aloneH910, The fountain of JacobH3290, in a landH776 of corn and newH8492 wineH8492; AlsoH637 his heavensH8064 shall dropH6201 downH7931 dewH2919. 29Happy art thou, IsraelH3478! Who is like unto thee, a peopleH5971 savedH3467 by Jehovah, The shieldH4043 of thy helpH5828, And the swordH2719 of thine excellency? And thine enemiesH341 shall come cringing to thee; And thou shalt treadH1869 upon their highH1116 placesH1116.
