12 He said to Benjamin:"The Lord’s dearest onerests safely on him.The Lord always shields him;he rests on God’s chest."
13 Then he told Joseph:"I pray that his land is blessed by God:with heaven’s gifts from above,with the deep waters stretching out underneath;
14 with the gifts produced by the sun,with the gifts generated by the moon;
15 with the best fruit from ancient mountains,with the gifts of eternal hills;
16 with the gifts of the earth and all that fills it,and the favor of the one who lives on Sinai.I pray that all these rest on Joseph’s head,on the crown of that prince among brothers.
17 A firstborn bull—that’s how majestic he is!A wild ox’s horns—those are his horns!With them he gores all peoplescompletely, to the far ends of the earth!His horns are Ephraim’s tens of thousands.His horns are Manasseh’s thousands."
