Deuteronomy 33:7-9
Lexham English Bible
7 And he said this of Judah,[a]
“Hear, O Yahweh, the voice of Judah,
and bring him to his people;
his own hands strive[b] for him,
and may you be a help against[c] his foes.”
8 And of Levi he said,
“Your Thummim and your Urim
are for your faithful one,[d]
whom you tested at Massah;[e]
you contended with him
at the waters of Meribah.
9 The one saying of his father and of his mother,
‘I have not regarded them,’
and his brothers he did not acknowledge,
and his children[f] he did not know,
but rather they observed your word,
and your covenant they kept.
