Genesis 49:26-28
English Standard Version
26 The blessings of your father
are mighty beyond the blessings of my parents,
up to the bounties (A)of the everlasting hills.[a]
May they be (B)on the head of Joseph,
and on the brow of him who was set apart from his brothers.
27 (C)“Benjamin is a ravenous wolf,
in the morning devouring the prey
and at evening (D)dividing the spoil.”
