Genesis 49:25-27
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
25 by the God of your father, who will help you,
by the Almighty[a] who will bless you
with blessings of heaven above,
blessings of the deep that lies beneath,
blessings of the breasts and of the womb.(A)
26 The blessings of your father
are stronger than the blessings of the eternal mountains,
the bounties[b] of the everlasting hills;
may they be on the head of Joseph,
on the brow of him who was set apart from his brothers.(B)
27 Benjamin is a ravenous wolf,
in the morning devouring the prey
and at evening dividing the spoil.”
Genesis 49:25-27
New International Version
25 because of your father’s God,(A) who helps(B) you,
because of the Almighty,[a](C) who blesses you
with blessings of the skies above,
blessings of the deep springs below,(D)
blessings of the breast(E) and womb.(F)
26 Your father’s blessings are greater
than the blessings of the ancient mountains,
than[b] the bounty of the age-old hills.(G)
Let all these rest on the head of Joseph,(H)
on the brow of the prince among[c] his brothers.(I)
