22 “Joseph is like a wild donkey, like a young donkey by a spring, like colts grazing in a pasture.
23 People attacked him and made life hard for him. Men with arrows became his enemies.
24 But he won the fight with his mighty bow and his skillful arms. He gets power from the Mighty One of Jacob, from the Shepherd, the Rock of Israel,
25 the God of your father who helps you. May God All-Powerful bless you and give you blessings from the sky above and from the deep below. May he give you blessings from breast and womb.
26 My parents had many good things happen to them. And I, your father, was blessed even more. Your brothers left you with nothing. But now I pile all my blessings on you, as high as a mountain.
27 “Benjamin is like a hungry wolf. In the morning he kills and eats. In the evening he shares what is left.”
28 These are the twelve families of Israel. And this is what their father said to them. He gave each son a blessing that was right for him.
