  • Deut 33:1-9 : 1 This is the blessing that Moses, the man of God, gave to the Israelites before his death. 2 He said: 'The Lord came from Sinai, and shone forth from Seir to them; He appeared in radiance from Mount Paran, and came with myriads of holy ones. From His right hand came a fiery law for them. 3 Indeed, He loves the peoples; all His holy ones are in Your hand. They are gathered at Your feet, and they receive Your words. 4 The law that Moses commanded us is a heritage for the congregation of Jacob. 5 He became king in Jeshurun when the heads of the people gathered, all the tribes of Israel together. 6 May Reuben live and not die, and may his men be few in number. 7 This is for Judah: He said, 'Hear, Lord, the voice of Judah; bring him to his people. With his own hands he defends, and You will be a help against his adversaries.' 8 Of Levi he said: 'Your Thummim and Urim belong to Your faithful one, whom You tested at Massah and contended with at the waters of Meribah. 9 He said of his father and mother, "I do not regard them;" he did not acknowledge his brothers or recognize his children, for they kept Your word and guarded Your covenant. 10 They will teach Your judgments to Jacob and Your law to Israel; they will offer incense before You and whole burnt offerings on Your altar. 11 Lord, bless his strength and accept the work of his hands.

May these rest on the head of Joseph, on the crown of the prince among his brothers. 17 His majesty is like a firstborn bull, and his horns are like the horns of a wild ox. With them he gores the peoples, all the way to the ends of the earth. Such are the myriads of Ephraim, and such are the thousands of Manasseh. 18 Of Zebulun he said: 'Rejoice, Zebulun, in your journeys, and Issachar, in your tents.' 19 They will summon peoples to the mountain, where they will offer righteous sacrifices; for they will draw from the abundance of the seas and the treasures hidden in the sand. 20 Of Gad he said: 'Blessed is he who enlarges Gad's territory. Gad dwells like a lion at rest, tearing arm and scalp.' 21 He chose the best for himself, for there the lawgiver's portion was reserved; he came with the leaders of the people. He carried out the righteousness of the Lord and His judgments for Israel. 22 Of Dan he said: 'Dan is a lion’s cub, springing out of Bashan.' 23 Of Naphtali he said: 'Naphtali is abounding with favor and full of the Lord's blessing; he will take possession of the sea and the south.' 24 Of Asher he said: 'Asher is most blessed of sons; let him be favored by his brothers, and let him bathe his feet in oil.' 25 The bolts of your gates will be iron and bronze, and your strength will last as long as your days. 26 There is no one like the God of Jeshurun, who rides on the heavens to help you and on the clouds in His majesty. 27 The eternal God is your refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms. He will drive out your enemies before you, saying, 'Destroy them!' 28 So Israel will live in safety, isolated in a land of grain and new wine, where the heavens drop dew. 29 Blessed are you, Israel! Who is like you, a people saved by the Lord? He is your shield and helper and your glorious sword. Your enemies will come cringing to you, and you will tread on their high places.
