ULT DEU Chapter 33

◄ DEU 33 ► ║ ©

33 And this is the blessing with which Moses, the man of God, blessed the sons of Israel before the face of his death. 2 And he said:

Yahweh from Sinai came

and rose from Seir to them,

shone forth from Mount Paran,

and came with ten thousands of holy ones,

in his right hand, lightning for them.

3 Yes, he loves the peoples.

All his sanctified are in your hand,

and they will be tied to your feet,

he is lifted up by your words.

4 ‘A law Moses commanded to us,

a possession for the assembly of Jacob.’

5 And he became a king in Jeshurun,

when the heads of the people had gathered,

together the tribes of Israel.

6 Let Reuben live and not die,

but let his men be few.

7 And this is for Judah. And he said:

Listen, Yahweh, to the voice of Judah,

and to his people bring him.

Let his hand strive for himself,

and a help against his enemies you will be.

8 And for Levi, he said:

Your Thummim and your Urim

are of your godly man,

whom you tested at Massah.

You strove against him at the waters of Meribah

9 who said of his father and of his mother,

‘I have not seen them,’

and his brothers he did not acknowledge,

and his sons he did not know,

for he guarded your speech

and your covenant he kept.

10 He teaches your ordinances to Jacob,

and your law to Israel.

He will put incense before your nose,

and whole offerings on your altar.

11 Bless, Yahweh, his possessions,

and the work of his hands accept.

Shatter the loins of those who rise up against him,

and haters of him, lest they rise up.

12 To Benjamin, he said:

The beloved of Yahweh lives in security beside him.

He covers him all the day,

and between his shoulders he lives.

13 And to Joseph, he said:

“Blessed of Yahweh be his land,

from the bounty of heaven, from dew,

and from the deep lying beneath,

14 and from the bounty of the harvest of the sun,

and from the bounty of the produce of the months,

15 and from the heads of ancient mountains,

and from the bounty of eternal hills,

16 and from the bounty of earth and from its fullness,

and the favor of the bush-dweller.

Let them come on the head of Joseph,

and on the top of the head of the prince of his brothers.

17 His firstborn ox is his majesty,

and the horns of a wild ox are his horns.

With them he will ram the peoples

together to the ends of the earth,

And they are the ten thousands of Ephraim,

and they are the thousands of Manasseh.

18 And to Zebulun, he said:

Rejoice, Zebulun, in your going out,

and Issachar, in your tents.

19 Peoples they will call to the mountain.

There they will sacrifice sacrifices of righteousness.

For the abundance of the seas they suckle,

and treasures hidden in the sand.

20 And to Gad, he said:

Blessed be the increaser of Gad.

Like a lioness he will live,

and tear off an arm, also a head.

21 And he saw the first for himself,

for there the decreed portion is reserved.

And he came with the heads of the people.

The justice of Yahweh he carried out,

and his judgments with Israel.

22 And to Dan, he said:

Dan is a lion cub

leaping out from Bashan.

23 And to Naphtali, he said:

Naphtali, satisfied with favor,

and full of the blessing of Yahweh,

the west and the south, you will possess.

24 And to Asher, he said:

Blessed among sons is Asher.

Let him be favored among his brothers,

and bathe in oil his foot.

25 Iron and bronze your gate-bolts,

and as your days, your security.”

26 There is no one like God of Jeshurun,

riding the heavens to your help,

and in his majesty on the clouds.

27 A refuge is the God of ancient days,

and underneath are the eternal arms.

And he thrust out the enemy from before your faces,

and he said, ‘Destroy!’

28 And Israel dwelt in safety

secure, the spring of Jacob

in a land of grain and new wine.

Indeed, let his heavens drop dew.

29 Your happiness, Israel!

Who is like you, a people saved by Yahweh,

the shield of your help,

and who is the sword of your majesty?

And your enemies will fawn over you,

but you, on their high places will trample.
