11 Bless, O Lord, his substance,and accept the work of his hands;run through the loins of them that rise against himand of them that hate him,so that they rise never again.
12 Of Benjamin he said: The beloved of the Lordwill dwell in safety by Him,and the Lord will protect him all day long;he will dwell between His shoulders.
13 Of Joseph he said: May his land be blessed of the Lord,from the harvest of the heavens,by the dew,and by the deep crouching beneath,
14 by the precious fruits brought forth by the sun,and by the choice things put forth by the moon,
15 by the finest things of the ancient mountains,and by the choice things of the everlasting hills,
16 by the best things of the earth and its fullness,and by the goodwill of Him who dwelt in the bush.May the blessing rest on the head of Joseph,on top of the head of him who was separated from his brothers.
17 His glory is like the firstborn of his bull,and his horns are like the horns of a wild ox;with them he will push the peoples together to the ends of the earth;they are the ten thousands of Ephraim,and they are the thousands of Manasseh.
