Genesis 49:24-26
24But his 1bow remained 2firm, And 34his arms were agile, From the hands of the 5Mighty One of Jacob (From there is 6the Shepherd, 7the Stone of Israel),25From 8the God of your father who helps you, And 910by the 11Almighty who blesses you With 12blessings of heaven above, Blessings of the deep that lies beneath, Blessings of the breasts and of the womb.26The blessings of your father Have surpassed the blessings of my ancestors Up to the 13utmost bound of 14the everlasting hills; May they be on the head of Joseph, And on the crown of the head of the one distinguished among his brothers.
