And this he said of Judah:

O Lord, give heed to Judah,
    and bring him to his people;
strengthen his hands for him,[a]
    and be a help against his adversaries.

And of Levi he said:

Give to Levi[b] your Thummim,
    and your Urim to your loyal one,
whom you tested at Massah,
    with whom you contended at the waters of Meribah;
who said of his father and mother,
    ‘I regard them not’;
he ignored his kin,
    and did not acknowledge his children.
For they observed your word,
    and kept your covenant.
