Deuteronomy 33:18-29 ▼

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

19 They 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.

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

21 And 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.

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

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

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

25 Iron 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.

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

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

29 O 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.”
