Deuteronomy 33:7-9

International Children’s Bible

“Lord, listen to Judah’s prayer.
    Bring them back to their people.
They defend themselves with their hands.
    Help them fight their enemies!”

“Lord, your Thummim and Urim belong
    to Levi whom you love.
Lord, you tested him at Massah.
    You argued with him at the waters of Meribah.
⁹ He said about his father and mother,
    ‘I don’t care about them.’
He did not recognize his brothers.
    He did not know his children.
But he protected your word.
    And he guarded your agreement.
