Deuteronomy 33:20-22
Common English Bible
20 Then he told Gad:
“May Gad’s broad lands[a] be blessed!
He lives like a lion:
he rips an arm, even a head!
21 He chose the best part for himself
because there, where the commander’s portion was,
the leaders of the people gathered together.[b]
Gad executed the Lord’s justice
and the Lord’s judgments for Israel.”[c]
22 Then he told Dan:
“Dan is a lion cub.
He jumps up from Bashan.”
