24. Moses said this about the people of Asher:“Asher is the most blessed of the sons.He should be his brothers’ favorite.Let him bathe his feet in olive oil.
25. Your gates will have locks of iron and bronze.You will be strong as long as you live.
26. “There is no one like the God of Israel.He rides through the skies to help you.He rides on the clouds in his majesty.
27. The everlasting God is your place of safety.His arms will hold you up forever.He will force your enemy out ahead of you.He will say, ‘Destroy the enemy!’
28. The people of Israel will lie down in safety.Jacob’s spring is theirs alone.Theirs is a land full of grain and wine.There the skies drop their dew.
29. Israel, you are blessed!No one else is like you.You are a people saved by the Lord.He is your shield and helper.He is your glorious sword.Your enemies will be afraid of you.You will walk all over their holy places.”
