1And this [is] the blessing [with] which Moses the man of God blessed the sons of Israel before his death,

2and he says: “YHWH has come from Sinai, "" And has risen from Seir for them; He has shone from Mount Paran, "" And has come [with] myriads of holy ones; At His right hand [came] a fiery law [[or a flaming fire]] for them.

3Indeed, He [is] loving the peoples; All His holy ones [are] in Your hand, "" And they sat down at Your foot, "" [Each] lifts up Your words.

4Moses has commanded a law for us, "" A possession of the assembly of Jacob.

5And He is King in Yeshurun, "" In the heads of the people gathering together, "" The tribes of Israel!

6Let Reuben live, and not die, "" And let his men be an [incalculable] number.

7And this [is] for Judah, and he says: Hear, O YHWH, the voice of Judah, "" And You bring him in to his people; His hand has striven for him, "" And You are a help from his adversaries.

8And of Levi he said: Your Perfections and your Lights [are] for your pious one, "" Whom You have tried in Massah, "" You strive with him at the waters of Meribah;

9Who is saying of his father and his mother, "" I have not seen him; And he has not discerned his brothers, "" And he has not known his sons; For they have observed Your saying, "" And they keep Your covenant.

10They teach Your judgments to Jacob, "" And Your law to Israel; They put incense in Your nose, "" And whole burnt-offering on Your altar.

11Bless, O YHWH, his strength, "" And accept the work of his hands, "" Strike the loins of his withstanders, "" And of those hating him—that they do not rise!

12Of Benjamin he said: The beloved of YHWH dwells confidently by Him, "" Covering him over every day; Indeed, he dwells between His shoulders.

13And of Joseph he said: His land [is] blessed [by] YHWH, "" By a precious thing of the heavens, "" By dew, and by the deep crouching beneath,

14And by a precious thing—fruits of the sun, "" And by a precious thing—cast forth by the months,

15And by a chief thing—of the ancient mountains, "" And by a precious thing—of the continuous heights,

16And by a precious thing—of earth and its fullness, "" And the good pleasure of Him who is dwelling in the bush; Let it come for the head of Joseph, "" And for the crown of him [who is] separate from his brothers.

17His splendor [is] a firstling of his ox, "" And his horns [are] horns of a wild ox; With them he pushes the peoples "" Altogether to the ends of the earth; And they [are] the myriads of Ephraim, "" And they [are] the thousands of Manasseh.

18And of Zebulun he said: Rejoice, O Zebulun, in your going out, "" And, O Issachar, in your tents;

19They call peoples [to] the mountain, "" There they sacrifice righteous sacrifices; For they suck up the abundance of the seas, "" And hidden things hidden in the sand.

20And of Gad he said: Blessed is he who is enlarging Gad, "" He dwells as a lioness, "" And has torn the arm—also the crown!

21And he provides the first part for himself, "" For there the portion of the lawgiver is covered, "" And he comes [with] the heads of the people; He has done the righteousness of YHWH, "" And His judgments with Israel.

22And of Dan he said: Dan [is] a lion’s whelp; He leaps from Bashan.

23And of Naphtali he said: O Naphtali, satisfied with pleasure, "" And full of the blessing of YHWH, "" Possess [the] west and [the] south.

24And of Asher he said: Asher [is] blessed with sons, "" Let him be accepted by his brothers, "" And dipping his foot in oil.

25Iron and bronze [are] your shoes, "" And as your days—your strength.

26[There is] none like the God of Yeshurun, "" Riding the heavens to your help, "" And in His excellence the skies.

27The eternal God [is] a habitation, "" And beneath [are] continuous arms. And He casts out the enemy from your presence and says, Destroy!

28And Israel dwells [in] confidence alone; The eye of Jacob [is] to a land of grain and wine; Also His heavens drop down dew.

29O your blessedness, O Israel! Who is like you? A people saved by YHWH, "" The shield of your help, "" And He who [is] the sword of your excellence! And your enemies are subdued for you, "" And you tread on their high places.”
