13 And of Joseph he said: --Blessed of Jehovah [is] his land, By precious things of the heavens, By dew, and by the deep crouching beneath,
14 And by precious things--fruits of the sun, And by precious things--cast forth by the moons,
15 And by chief things--of the ancient mountains, And by precious things--of the age-during heights,
16 And by precious things--of earth and its fulness, And the good pleasure Of Him who is dwelling in the bush, --Let it come for the head of Joseph, And for the crown of him Who is separate from his brethren.
17 His honour [is] a firstling of his ox, And his horns [are] horns of a reem; By them peoples he doth push together To the ends of earth; And they [are] the myriads of Ephraim, And they [are] the thousands of Manasseh.
18 And of Zebulun he said: --Rejoice, O Zebulun, in thy going out, And, O Issachar, in thy tents;
19 Peoples [to] the mountain they call, There they sacrifice righteous sacrifices; For the abundance of the seas they suck, And hidden things hidden in the sand.
