Genesis 49:22-27

22JosephH3130 is a fruitfulH6509 bough; A fruitfulH6509 bough by a well; [His] branches shoot over the wallH7791.

23The archers have provoked him, And shot at, and hated him;

24But his bowH7198 abideth firm, And the armsH2220 of his handsH3027 are supple By the handsH3027 of the MightyH46 OneH46 of JacobH3290. From thence is the shepherdH7462, the stoneH68 of IsraelH3478:

25From the 1GodH410 of thy fatherH1, and he will helpH5826 thee; And from the AlmightyH7706, and he will blessH1288 thee — With blessingsH1293 of heavenH8064 from above, With blessingsH1293 of the deepH8415 that lieth under, With blessingsH1293 of the breastH7699 and of the wombH7356.

26The blessingsH1293 of thy fatherH1 surpass the blessingsH1293 of my ancestorsH1, Unto the bounds of the everlasting hillsH1389: They shall beH1961 on the headH7218 of JosephH3130, And on the crown of the headH7218 of him that wasH1961 separated from his brethren.

27BenjaminH1144 — [as] a wolfH2061 will he tearH2963 to pieces; In the morningH1242 he will devourH398 the prey, And in the eveningH6153 he will divideH2505 the bootyH7998.
