Deuteronomy 33:10-20 New Century Version (NCV)

10. He teaches your laws to the people of Jacoband your teachings to the people of Israel.He burns incense before youand makes whole burnt offerings on your altar.

11. Lord, make them strong;be pleased with the work they do.Defeat those who attack them,and 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,because he protects them all day long.The ones he loves rest with him.”

13. Moses said this about the people of Joseph:“May the Lord bless their land with wonderful dew from heaven,with water from the springs below,

14. with the best fruits that the sun brings,and with the best fruits that the moon brings.

15. Let the old mountains give the finest crops,and let the everlasting hills give the best fruits.

16. Let the full earth give the best fruits,and let the Lord who lived in the burning bush be pleased.May these blessings rest on the head of Joseph,on the forehead of the one who was blessed among his brothers.

17. Joseph has the majesty of a firstborn bull;he is as strong as a wild ox.He will stab other nations,even those nations far away.These are the ten thousands of Ephraim,and these are the thousands of Manasseh.”

18. Moses said this about the people of Zebulun:“Be happy when you go out, Zebulun,and be happy in your tents, Issachar.

19. They will call the people to the mountain,and there they will offer the right sacrifices.They will do well from all that is in the sea,and they will do well from the treasures hidden in the sand on the shore.”

20. Moses said this about the people of Gad:“Praise God who gives Gad more land!Gad lives there like a lion,who tears off arms and heads.
