Deuteronomy 33:7-9

Expanded Bible

⁷ Moses said this about the people of Judah:
“Lord, listen to Judah’s ·prayer [^Lvoice];
    bring them back to their people.
They ·defend [contend for] themselves with their hands.
    Help them fight their enemies!”

“Lord, your Thummim and Urim [Ex. 28:30] belong
    to ·Levi, whom you love [^Lyour loyal one].
Lord, you tested him at Massah
    and argued with him at the waters of Meribah [Ex. 17:1–7].
⁹ He said about his father and mother,
    ‘I don’t care about them.’
He did not treat his brothers as favorites
    or give special favors to his children,
but he protected your word
    and guarded your ·agreement [covenant; treaty; Ex. 32:25–29].
