8 Moses said this about the people of Levi:“Lord, your Thummim and Urim belongto Levi whom you love.Lord, you tested him at Massah.You argued with him at the waters of Meribah.
9 He said about his father and mother,‘I don’t care about them.’He did not recognize his brothers.He did not know his children.But he protected your word.And he guarded your agreement.
10 He teaches your laws to the people of Jacoband your teachings to the people of Israel.He burns incense before you.And he makes whole burnt offerings on your altar.
11 Lord, make them strong.Be pleased with the work they do.Defeat those who attack them.Don’t let their enemies rise up again.”
12 Moses said this about the people of Benjamin:“The Lord’s loved ones will lie down in safety.The Lord protects them all day long.The ones the Lord loves rest with him.”
13 Moses said this about the people of Joseph:“May the Lord bless their land with the best fruits.Send rain from heaven above.And bring the water from the springs below.
14 Let the sun produce the best fruits.Let each month bring its best fruits.
