God’s Word Translation
Genesis 49:22-26
22“Joseph is a fruitful tree, a fruitful tree by a spring, with branches climbing over a wall.
23Archers provoked him, shot at him, and attacked him.
24But his bow stayed steady, and his arms remained limber because of the help of the Mighty One of Jacob, because of the name of the Shepherd, the Rock of Israel,
25because of the God of your father who helps you, because of the Almighty who gives you blessings from the heavens above, blessings from the deep springs below the ground, blessings from breasts and womb.
26The blessings of your father are greater than the blessings of the oldest mountains and the riches of the ancient hills. May these blessings rest on the head of Joseph, on the crown of the prince among his brothers.
