Deuteronomy 33

The LORD came from Sinai,

And rose up from Seir unto them;

He shined forth from mount Paran,

And he came with ten thousands of saints:

From his right hand went a fiery law for them.

₃Yea, he loved the people;

All his saints are in thy hand:

And they sat down at thy feet;

Every one shall receive of thy words.

₄Moses commanded us a law,

Even the inheritance of the congregation of Jacob.

₅And he was king in Jeshurun,

When the heads of the people

And the tribes of Israel were gathered together.

₆Let Reuben live, and not die;

And let not his men be few.

₇And this is the blessing of Judah: and he said,

Hear, LORD, the voice of Judah,

And bring him unto his people:

Let his hands be sufficient for him;

And be thou an help to him from his enemies.

Let thy Thummim and thy Urim be with thy holy one,

Whom thou didst prove at Massah,

And with whom thou didst strive at the waters of Meribah;

₉Who said unto his father and to his mother, I have not seen him;

Neither did he acknowledge his brethren,

Nor knew his own children:

For they have observed thy word,

And kept thy covenant.

₁₀They shall teach Jacob thy judgments,

And Israel thy law:

They shall put incense before thee,

And whole burnt sacrifice upon thine altar.

₁₁Bless, LORD, his substance,

And accept the work of his hands:

Smite through the loins of them that rise against him,

And of them that hate him, that they rise not again.

The beloved of the LORD shall dwell in safety by him;

And the LORD shall cover him all the day long,

And he shall dwell between his shoulders.

Blessed of the LORD be his land,

For the precious things of heaven, for the dew,

And for the deep that coucheth beneath,

₁₄And for the precious fruits brought forth by the sun,

And for the precious things put forth by the moon,

₁₅And for the chief things of the ancient mountains,

And for the precious things of the lasting hills,

₁₆And for the precious things of the earth and fulness thereof,

And for the good will of him that dwelt in the bush:

Let the blessing come upon the head of Joseph,

And upon the top of the head of him that was separated from his brethren.

₁₇His glory is like the firstling of his bullock,

And his horns are like the horns of unicorns:

With them he shall push the people together to the ends of the earth:

And they are the ten thousands of Ephraim,

And they are the thousands of Manasseh.

Rejoice, Zebulun, in thy going out;

And, Issachar, in thy tents.

₁₉They shall call the people unto the mountain;

There they shall offer sacrifices of righteousness:

For they shall suck of the abundance of the seas,

And of treasures hid in the sand.

Blessed be he that enlargeth Gad:

He dwelleth as a lion,

And teareth the arm with the crown of the head.

₂₁And he provided the first part for himself,

Because there, in a portion of the lawgiver, was he seated;

And he came with the heads of the people,

He executed the justice of the LORD,

And his judgments with Israel.

Dan is a lion's whelp:

He shall leap from Bashan.

O Naphtali, satisfied with favour,

And full with the blessing of the LORD:

Possess thou the west and the south.

Let Asher be blessed with children;

Let him be acceptable to his brethren,

And let him dip his foot in oil.

₂₅Thy shoes shall be iron and brass;

And as thy days, so shall thy strength be.

₂₆There is none like unto the God of Jeshurun,

Who rideth upon the heaven in thy help,

And in his excellency on the sky.

₂₇The eternal God is thy refuge,

And underneath are the everlasting arms:

And he shall thrust out the enemy from before thee;

And shall say, Destroy them.

₂₈Israel then shall dwell in safety alone:

The fountain of Jacob

Shall be upon a land of corn and wine;

Also his heavens shall drop down dew.

₂₉Happy art thou, O Israel:

Who is like unto thee, O people saved by the LORD,

The shield of thy help,

And who is the sword of thy excellency!

And thine enemies shall be found liars unto thee;

And thou shalt tread upon their high places.
